19-year-old student files a civil claim against HK Police Force: It's a fight for justice
During the anti-ELAB movement in Hong Kong two years ago, a 19-year-old pro-democracy student, Pang Yue-him (ĺ˝čŁ•č¬™) was arrested in #MongKok in November 2019 for possessing a #LaserPointer. Pang plead not guilty.
Without seeking legal representation, Pang took defence for himself in prosecution, reviewed the evidence, and cross-examined the witness in English. In June 2021, he won the court case and was acquitted.
Five months later, Pang filed a civil case at the #DistrictCourt on December 1, accusing the Hong Kong Police Force of disclosing incomplete, misleading and incorrect information which could be deemed “misrepresentation”. He claimed a remedy amounted to HK$520,000.
Handling the #CivilClaim case unrepresented, Pang openly acknowledged that the chance of winning the case is slim. He intended to carry on the court case as a fight for justice.
