HONG KONG, July 18 (AFP): Spectators and competitors at the Olympic equestrian events in Hong Kong will be banned from displaying any political slogans, including pro-Tibet flags, organisers said Friday.
Under the Olympic charter, all forms of political propaganda are banned and tight security at venues in the territory will ensure the rules are complied with, said John Breen co-ordinator of security and support for the equestrian events.
