Spinal disc dislocated: pro-democracy legislator Ray Chan dragged across the floor in LegCo Scuffle
Beijing loyalist: I was just taking the trash out

Scuffles broke out on May 8 in the highly controversial LegCo House Committee meeting chaired by pro-Beijing legislator Starry Lee. Beijing loyalist Kwok Wai-keung was filmed holding onto the collar of pro-democracy legislator Ray Chan's shirt, causing him to lose balance, and dragging him across the legislature's chamber.

Kwok responded to the incident today, likening himself to a janitor "taking out the trash". He counterclaimed that he was only trying to stop Chan from being too close to the podium.

Chan was diagnosed with inter-vertebral disc dislocation upon visiting the emergency room. He plans to file a police report and sue Kwok.
