A Hong Kong court has found 16 Falun Gong followers guilty of causing a public obstruction during a protest outside China's main office in the territory.
It was the first time criminal charges had been brought against members of the spiritual movement in Hong Kong.

The organisation is outlawed in China, but there are no laws against it in the former British colony.

Human rights organisations have expressed concern that the case could indicate an erosion of freedoms which continued in Hong Kong after Britain handed it back to Chinese rule in 1997.
