     Protesters wear headbands with a slogan reading 'Denounce butcher regime' as they attend a candlelight vigil outside the Chinese liaison office in Hong Kong, June 3, 2014, to mark the anniversary of China's bloody crackdown on Tiananmen Square in 1989. In Hong Kong, a former British colony that has retained its own legal system and civil liberties since returning to Chinese rule in 1997, organizers said they expected about 150,000 people to join a candlelight vigil in a city park in remembrance of the crackdown.
