June 4th marks the 34th anniversary of the Tiananmen Square massacre, when Chinese soliders opened fire on peaceful, student-led, pro-democracy demonstrators in Beijing. The topic is banned in mainland China, but people in Hong Kong long held annual commemorations. However, since Beijing imposed a 2020 security law on the once-autonomous territory, calling attention to the 1989 crackdown means a swift response from local authorities. 6 月 4 日是天安门广场大屠杀 34 周年纪念日，当时中国士兵向北京和平的、学生领导的亲民主示威者开火。 这个话题在中国大陆是被禁止的，但香港人长期以来每年都会举行纪念活动。 然而，自从北京在 2020 年对曾经自治的领土实施国安法以来，呼吁关注 1989 年的镇压意味着地方当局的迅速反应。

香港警方检获「煽动颠覆」铜像 Hong Kong police seize statue in “incitement to subversion” probe
The two-tonne copper Pillar of Shame was first exhibited at a Tiananmen Square commemoration in Hong Kong in 1997, the same year Britain handed the city back to China.
In 2021, the University of Hong Kong dismantled and removed the statue “based on external legal advice and risk assessment for the best interest of the university”. It has since been kept in a cargo container on university-owned land.
Danish sculptor Jens Galschiot, who created the work, said he had not been informed about its seizure by police.
这座重达2吨的铜羞耻柱于1997年在香港天安门广场首次展出，同年英国将这座城市归还中国。
香港大学于2021年拆除了该雕像,并”以大学的最佳利益为依据,根据外部法律咨询和风险评估” 此后，它被保存在大学拥有的土地上的货运集装箱中。
丹麦雕塑家延斯·加尔肖特（Jens Galschiot）创作了这幅作品。 他说，警方没有通知他没收这幅画。
