HK Police #Arrests Pro-democracy Youth in Advance for Future "Unauthorized Assembly"

On the morning of June 11, 2021 in Hong Kong, the convenor of #StudentPoliticism #WongYatChin was arrested by the police at his home.

The police accused him of "promoting and announcing unauthorized assembly".

In the afternoon, the pro-democracy group revealed that their spokeperson #WongYuenLam was also arrested.

Student Politicism only mentioned on their social media platform that they would set up a street booth in Mongkok at 7pm on June 12, 2021.

June 12, 2021 is the two year-mark of the first large-scale police-civilian clash of the 2019 #AntiELAB movement in Hong Kong.

On June 12, 2021, the two pro-democracy youth were still detained by the police. Their fellow group members held a press meeting to reiterate their stance and express their determination.

The group clarified that in the past, when they mentioned the 2019 #AntiELAB movement, the use of force in protests was recounted as events but never promoted as a strategy. Their goal is to take part in civic education.

The group said the authorities has forced Hong Kong to enter an era of #WhiteTerror.

On June 12, the two year-mark of the first police-civilian clash in the 2019 pro-democracy movement, the group will not take any collective action, but every individual can speak up in defense of freedom and stay true to the original cause of the 2019 ptotests.

Towards the end of the press conference, the group delivered a message from the convenor Wong Yat-chin who is currently in custody:

"While the regime can imprison us physically, they can never confine our wills and beliefs. No matter how many obstacles are there in front of us, we should continue to forge forward and stand by our beliefs. Wish everyone safe and sound."

The group called on pro-democracy and freedom-loving Honhkongers to never give up, despite the worsening situation:

"As long as there are lights, there will be people; and with people, there is always hope."

Members of Student Politicism arrested when setting up street booth

#StudentPoliticism, a local organisation, first planned to set up a street booth in Causeway Bay. However, due to heavy police deployment and the cordon lines, the organisation had to relocate the booth in Mongkok.

Members of the organisation prepared leaflets to be distributed, but were surrounded by a large group of police. The police demanded all citizens on site to leave, otherwise they would be fined for violation of the 599G gathering ban.

At around 1700, three core members of Student Politicism and one volunteer were arrested, including the convenor #WongYatChin.

#StudentPoliticism Disbanded as Core Members Face Political Prosecution in National Security Violation

On the evening of September 24, 2021, a pro-democracy group Student Politicism announced its disbandment following the arrest of the convener #WongYatChin, spokeperson #WongYuenLam, former spokeperson #JessicaChu and former secretary #ChanChiSum on charge of national security violation.

The group was founded in May 2020, before the forced enactment of the national security law in Hong Kong. One motto of the group, according to the 20-year-old convener Wong Yat-Chin, is to test the "red line of the regime". The group had been one of the very few pro-democracy student groups still in function in Hong Kong.

Announcing the decision on its Facebook page, the group wished Hongkongers safe and peace.

Uneasy and Puzzled, Student Politicism 'Testing the Bottom Line', Wong Yat-chin: Imprisonment is my Atonement

Translated by Guardians of Hong Kong , November 10, 2021 • 1 December 2021

In one whole year after the National Security Law (NSL) took effect the civilian society slipped into a panic state with political figures continually got arrested or left Hong Kong while political parties and organizations got disbanded. Among this misery, Student Politicism (SP) was established in May 2020 when the National Congress was about to pass the NSL bill. Within only one year WONG Yat-chin, the convenor, was already arrested for four times - the latest two within only a week in June. SP suddenly becomes one of the “most upfront” political organizations.
