A number of religious groups held a rally on Saturday to show support for nine Occupy leader who are awaiting a court verdict over their role in the mass protests in 2014.
The movement's co-founders Benny Tai, Chan Kin-man and the Reverend Chu Yiu-ming led the procession, which marched from Causeway Bay to the government headquarters in Tamar.
Besides the trio, co-defendants Tanya Chan and Tommy Cheung also took part.
The District Court will deliver its verdict on 9 April on the five – as well as legislator Shiu Ka-chun, activists Eason Chung, Raphael Wong and Lee Wing-tat – on public nuisance charges.
The rally was organised by the Justice and Peace Commission of the Hong Kong Catholic Diocese.
It says it hopes participants will take this opportunity to reflect on the problems facing Hong Kong.
