#Justice in Hong Kong is fading away. The rulers can control the judgement of cases, even those pertaining to human lives.

Full-page Ad Calls Secretary for Justice to Respect #AnimalLives As Authorities Set Abusers of 29 Animals Free

A secondary school teacher in Hong Kong and his partner surrendered themselves in February 2020 for hurling 29 animals off a high-rise tower, including chinchillas, guinea pig, cats, rabbits, parrot and rodent.

All animals, scattered on the ground and in a ditch next to the building, were either dead or severely injured.

But after a six-month investigation, HK police said the Justice Department would not bring the abusers to trial owing to "insufficient evidence to demonstrate a reasonable prospect of conviction".

A front-page advertisement was crowdfunded by a animal rights concern group "1380" and published on Apple Daily. The advertisement took form of an open message to the Secretary for Justice Teresa Cheng:

"Animals cannot speak for themselves and are totally helpless when subject to abuse. We should protect them for justice to be done."

Pro-democracy legislator Claudia Mo, also wrote an open letter to Secretary for Justice Teresa Cheng earlier, demanding an explanation for why the case was dropped: “This move is no different than sending society a message that the government looks down on animal lives and easily allows animal abusers walk free.”
