A transport worker and warehouse worker, 22 and 23, accused of rioting near the junction of Nathan Road and Waterloo Road in Yau Ma Tei on November 18 last year, have been denied bail by the High Court today.

Judge Andrew Chan Hing-wai said the case will be transferred to either the District or the High Court. He said the chance of defendants reoffending is high.

The case will be called at the Tuen Mun Magistrates' Courts on March 4.
