China has passed a controversial security law giving it new powers over Hong Kong, deepening fears for the city's freedoms, the BBC has learned. Last month China stunned the city when it said it would criminalise any act of secession, subversion, terrorism or collusion with foreign forces.
The move came after angry protests last year - sparked by another law - which became a pro-democracy movement.
China says the law is needed to tackle unrest and instability in the city and rejects criticism as interference in its affairs.

A draft of the law was not made public before it was pushed through, which means people in the city will not have seen details of the measures they now have to abide by.
It would make criminal any act of secession, subversion of the central government, terrorism and collusion with foreign or external forces.
In addition, the city will have to establish its own national security commission to enforce the laws, with a Beijing-appointed adviser.

July 1st, 2020 marks the 23rd anniversary of the handover from Britain to China.
The 23rd prime number is 83.
Importantly, Beijing will have power over how the law should be interpreted.
If the law conflicts with any Hong Kong law, the Beijing law takes priority.
