The leader of one of Hong Kong's largest pro-democracy groups has been taken to hospital after being attacked.

Axar.az reports citing BBC.

Photographs on social media showed Jimmy Sham of the Civil Human Rights Front (CHRF) lying in the street, covered in blood.

It came hours after the territory's leader suspended her annual address after being heckled in parliament.

Mass protests in support of greater democracy in the territory began in June and show no sign of abating.
