Here is a rundown of the events that took place throughout this entire process, from the day Ms X lodged her criminal complaint:
-Oct 22, 2019: Ms X Made a Police Report
Represented by Vlder & Co. Solicitors, 18-year-old Ms X filed a police report alleging that she was gang raped and sexually assaulted in Tsuen Wan Police Station on September 27, 2019.
Ms X allowed the taking of a DNA sample from her aborted foetus in order for at least one of the assailants to be identified. The case was handled by the New Territories South Regional Crime Unit.
- November 4, 2019: Police Attempt to Seize Ms X's Private Medical Record
Police obtained warrant to seize Ms X's medical report and surveilance camera footage from the clinic of her private doctor, without Ms Xās knowledge or consent.
Ms X challenged the warrant immediately for its violation of her privacy.

The court granted an anonymity order for Ms X and suspended the search warrant of the police.
- Nov 9, 2019 : Police Reportedly Leak Investigation Information
The police in the process of investigation claimed that there was no sign of rape.
Meanwhile, Ms X's case had been leaked onto the internet, with āpolice sourcesā releasing selective details of the investigation and adverse comments on the evidence.
- November 11, 2019: Lawyers Condemn the Police for Lacking Impartiality
Ms X's lawyers accused the police of lacking impartiality and deliberately leaking "supposed details" of the case to diminish the prospects of a successful prosecution.
- January 16, 2020: Police Commissioner Publicly Calls the Gang Rape Case "Fake"
Police Commissioner Chris Tang alleged Ms X's complaint as "fake" and accused Ms X of "misleading police officers or giving a false statementā.
Tang voluntarily spoke about the case in a district council meeting and gave away supposedly confidential information.
- Jan 18, 2020: Lawyers Condemn the Police for Undermining the Criminal Report
Ms X's lawyers issued a statement condemning Tang for publicly discrediting the victim and undermining her criminal complaint.
The police never answered Ms X and her lawyers' inquiry of the status of investigation. For instance, the police refused to answer whether they had received the DNA report from the government laboratory or not.
- April 6, 2020: Case Terminated with Any Explanation to Ms X
The Department of Justice inform lawyers that Ms Xās case will not be taken any further, claiming that her complaint was contrary to the evidences that they obtained. No details were provided about this claim to the lawyers.

Police Commissioner Chris Tang said that the Department of Justice had instructed the arrest of Ms X for "making a false statement."
Like the previous time, Tang spoke voluntarily about the case after a district council meeting. Tang told the press that Ms X has "fled" Hong Kong.
- May 13, 2020: Justice Denied?
Ms X released a statement via her lawyers condemning the police for their lack of professionalism and doubting the outcome of the so-called investigation.
Whereas the Department of Justice claimed Ms X's testimony did not match with the police report , Ms X was never summoned to explain her case.
While Ms X had been compling and abiding to every process and regulation, she expressed her disappointment and frustration: "I prayed and hoped that the complaint would be investigated impartially, in strict confidence and respect for my privacy and dignity, but none of that happened".

China-funded newspaper Wen Wui Po on May 13 claimed that Ms X, the gang-rape accuser, went to Taiwan 19 days after she made the report to the police. The newspaper furthered to describe the difference between the police investigative report and Ms X's account.
Afterwards, a source close to Ms X contacted the Stand News.

Ms X did not "flee" Hong Kong, nor did she know that she has become a "wanted person", when the police commissioner Chris Tang made the claim on May 12.
Ms X through her laywers also stated that she was already not in Hong Kong when Commissioner Tang accused her of "misleading the police" in January.

Letter from a fellow female protester
Please read carefully and take her words seriously.
The author of the letter below has safely fled to another country.
Special thanks to our sister for reminding Hongkongers to stay angry against the corrupted cops. We keep hearing this kind of sexual abuse time after time!
The content of the letter is as follows. [Note: younger protestors sometimes call older protesters āparentsā]
Dear Parents and the Hong Kong Book of Freedom,
I am so sorry. Even after you have paid my tuition fees, I still decided to flee. As I was arrested by the police at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) during the protest on 1 October 2019, I now have no choice but to leave. My dear parents, I am so sorry to have wasted your well-intended efforts and kindness. I will pay it back after settling down in my new surroundings. But I want to mention one last thing. While I was under police custody, several police officers touched my breasts and even brazenly commented about how āit felt greatā. This took place at a car park about 10 minutesā walk from the location I was arrested in Tsuen Wan. My head was covered in a black cloth at the time and I dared not make any sound. I am sorry. While I am reluctant to mention it again, I believe there are more victims. I hope other Hongkongers can avenge for me. May glory be to Hong Kong.
