Police: “Protesters Were Led to Yuen Long Station by Malevolent Ringleaders During 7.21 Attacks”; Pro-Democracy Legislator Refutes Such Claims

PPRB Senior Superintendent, Kwong Wing Cheung had been interviewed by Cable TV. When asked about the 7.21 Indiscrimate Attacks in Yuen Long Station, he criticised those whom he claimed had "organised the entire ordeal" and "lead protesters to Yuen Long Station".

Legislative Councillor and victim of the 7.21 Indiscriminate Attacks, Lam Cheuk-ting refuted these claims. He reiterated that civilians had been attacked long before he arrived at the scene. He deplored the police force for spreading rumours and lies fabricated by Junius Ho Kwan-yiu, which only served to deepen the existing social divide and intensify phobias within society.

2046 - 2103 | Yoho Mall, Yuen Long
Today marks the seventh mensiversary of the July 21 Attacks at Yuen Long. Civilians have gathered in Yoho Mall, Yuen Long this evening to commemorate the event, as well to urge the government to bring justice to the attackers.

While civilians were protesting inside the mall, riot police could be seen on standby outside the mall. Yuen Long district councilor from Kingswood North Ng Kin Wai had asked the police commander on-site whether the police would enter the mall, which the commander responded that they may, as they claimed illegal activities were being conducted inside.

Another Yuen Long district councilor from Shui Pin Samuel Lai Kwok-wing stated that he saw riot police using cardboard to hold the main doors of the mall, which he suspected were to convenience the riot police by easing their entrance into the mall.

Other district councilors are currently negotiating with the police.

磚縫間的小花小草

抗疫之間不忘抗爭,
任誰也能夠明白問題所在,
一個誠信破產的政府,
一支道德敗壞的警隊。

十個多月的時間,
處處開花的連儂牆,
寫下了無數市民的心聲,
也顯出各位手足的堅持。

縱然受著不斷的破壞,
我們也無間斷地重建,
就算迎來多少次的壓迫,
我們也都不會啞忍無聲。

The Undying Flame, Our Cries for Justice and Freedom

The fight remains in our hearts during this pandemic,
Everyone understands the problem;
An untrustworthy government,
A morally corrupted police force.

For more than ten months,
Lennon Walls have been blooming everywhere,
Recording countless citizens' voices,
Emphasizing everyone's persistence.

In spite of the constant destruction,
They are repeatedly rebuild it,
No matter how strong the oppression,
None of us will remain silent.
