HK Police: Director of National Security Police did nothing 'unethical or illegal' in Prostitution Site

On May 18, 2021, the Hong Kong Police announced that the director of the force's #NationalSecurityDepartment, #FrederickChoi, had not been engaged in any unethical or illegal behaviour.

In March 2021, Choi was found at an unlicensed massage parlour in Wan Chai during a police raid. Though the parlour was a confirmed venue for prostitution and six women were arrested, the police claimed that the senior officer Choi did not committ "any immoral or unlawful behaviour.“

The police stressed that their investigation was undertaken from "all directions and multiple angles". The police claimed that visiting unlicensed masage parlour did not breach the law, so Choi was not arrested.
