Protestors charge security cordon lines at airport
**************************************************
Attention duty announcers, radio and TV stations:
 
Please broadcast the following message as soon as possible and repeat it at suitable intervals:
 
     Since 1pm today (September 1), a large group of protestors have been gathering around bus stops at the Terminal of the Hong Kong International Airport. At around 2pm, the protestors started to charge water-filled barriers, pointed laser beams at the Airport Authority (AA) staff, and blocked roads with trolleys and mills barriers. They also hurled objects at Police officers and AA staff. The protestors concerned are participating in an unauthorised assembly.
      
     Since an injunction order is in force, the protestors may be liable to “contempt of court”. Police warn all protestors to stop their illegal acts and leave immediately.
