Hong Kong leader Carrie Lam has reiterated her support for local police in her latest public appearance, while adding that her dialogue sessions with the community begin next week.

In a press conference on Sept. 17, Lam said that accusations that Hong Kong police were targeting young pro-democracy protesters for arrest was “unfounded and unfair.”
