"There was a flower bed and I jumped up to see where the crowds end. Then riot police demanded that we immediately got off the flower bed. Everyone quickly got off but police grabbed the last person to get down, a young man, and took him to a police van." 。

"I would have gone myself if they told me why they were detaining me. But I didn't even have time to ask," she said. 。
