In a rare act of defiance, Peking University students demanded the resignation of China’s police chief and marched by the hundreds in protests for a second day Wednesday over the killing of a student.
The protests came fewer than two weeks before the anniversary of the military’s crushing of the student-led democracy movement on Tiananmen Square on June 4, 1989.
About 1,500 students demonstrated Tuesday night in a candlelight vigil in the largest protest on campus since the 1989 crackdown.
On Wednesday, about 500 students gathered to demand a meeting with school officials.
