A Single Person Standing Alone Is Not Allowed

A woman, standing by herself nearby roadside memorial of #MarcoLeung, was detained by police officers, which quickly drew a crowd.
A reporter demanded explanation as to which law she might have breached by standing alone, "A single person standing on the street, is that not allowed?" Without answering, the officer nodded in acquiescence.

Defiant Hongkongers continue mourning pro-democracy victim despite police presence and tightened National Security Law enforcement.
Today (January 15) marked the 19th month since #MarcoLeung Ling-kit, who fell from a height of a shopping mall in Admiralty, has attempted to stop the government passing the Extradition Law in Hong Kong.
In the late evening, a citizen hanged a lightbox which printed with "although our bodies cannot fight together, our souls are always together in solidarity", on a tree nearby. Some citizens laid white flowers in Leung's remembrance, a monthly ritual since the passing of Leung on June 15 2019.
Meanwhile, three police vehicles and dozens of uniformed police were on the scene. A loudspeaker was hoisted inside an orange police cordon line, broadcasting warnings for citizens to disperse; otherwise, they might risk violating the social distancing rule and being ticketed.

20 Months On, Hongkongers Continue to Mourn Yellow Raincoat Man
On June 15, 2019, "Yellow Raincoat Man" Marco Leung Ling-kit took his life, by jumping off from the rooftop of a shopping mall, in protest of the extradition bill, which Carrie Lam refused to withdraw despite million-strong protest marches and violent clashes outside the legislature.
20 months later, Leung’s supporters continued to show their respect to his bravery act amidst government’s imposition of National Security Law and COVID19 social distancing restrictions.
A lightbox with words that read, “Belief will never die” was erected among bouquets of white flowers, signifying Hongkongers’ defiance and uncompromising desire for freedom and democracy.

“I am lost in Hong Kong”: #YellowRaincoatMan
On May 10, 2021, the Coroner’s Court in Hong Kong has opened the inquest into the death of “yellow raincoat man” #MarcoLeung Ling-kit, the first martyred Hong Kong protestor, who on June 15, 2019, fell from a scaffolding at Pacific Place mall in Admiralty after unfurling a banner with the Five Demands of the protests.
Leung’s parents were absent from court.
Inside the court room, the personal belongings of Leung were exhibited. These include a banner that read "Fully withdraw extradition to China, we are not rioters" and his famous yellow poncho displaying the line "Carrie Lam kills Hong Kong, Corrupt Cop is Coldblooded".
Apart from these, there is also a black T-shirt with the words “I am lost in Hong Kong” and a notebook where he wrote “I am frustrated by this Hong Kong.”
A clip of the incident was shown in court, in which Democrat Roy Kwong and other citizens tried to persuade Leung not to commit suicide. “Walk back!” “We still have tomorrow. Let’s march together tomorrow!”
Macro Leung died on June 15, 2019, a day before a march which sees 2 million Hongkongers taking to the street, the largest the city has ever witnessed. He has since become an icon in Hong Kong’s resistance movement.

“What comes today is the stained hands of a tyrant”: #YellowRaincoatMan’s Last Words Found
The Coroner's inquest into the death of #MarcoLeung “Yellow Raincoat Man" took place during which a notebook with his last words was exhibited.
“I am frustrated to this Hong Kong
whose answers to its future for
months I have sought yet not found
What comes today is my will
but also from the stained hands of the tyrant.”
“Fully withdraw Extradition to China
Release all students
We are not rioters
Carrie Lam must go”
Found in his remains is also a filled registration card of a wish for green burial, which means he chooses to bury by scattering his cremains in Gardens of Remembrance or at Sea.
Leung’s family has tried to approach the police in June 2019 and June 2020 for three times. Yet 2 days after they have given their statement, they left Hong Kong on the morning of 29 August 2019 and didn’t have any other travel records ever since.
