HK Government Extends Gathering Ban to July 2, Banning July 1 Rally, Police Refuse to Issue LONO
The Hong Kong Government has extended the gathering ban to July 2 to coincide with the annual July 1st march organized by the Democratic Front. Jimmy Sham of Civil Human Rights Front rebuked the police for using the pandemic as a way to suppress protest.
After discussing the potential arrangements for the July 1st protest with the police on June 24, Sham met with the media and slammed the police for their perfunctory attitude.
He said that the police did not even note down anything with paper and pen, and they "held the meeting without any expression".
Sham described the police's attitude as if they were saying “We both know that the protest won't be approved". Sham believed that the meeting was just a procedure as the police have no intention to give out the Letter of No Objection.
