Pro-democracy demonstrators blow a candle of a birthday cake to celebrating 60th birthday of jailed Nobel Peace Prize laureate Liu Xiaobo in Hong Kong, China December 28, 2015. Hong Kong protesters demanded the release of Liu, who was sentenced to imprisonment six years ago on Christmas day. A veteran dissident involved in the 1989 Tiananmen Square pro-democracy protests crushed by the Chinese army, Liu was jailed for 11 years in 2009 on subversion charges for organising the “Charter 08” petition that urges the overthrow of the one-party rule.
