Police Cordon Off Prince Edward Subway Station to Intercept Civilians, District Councillor and Reporter

23:27 | Prince Edward

Outside Exit B of Prince Edward Station, police set up cordon to forbid civilians from going close to the station and laying flowers to pay tribute to the victims of police brutality in Hong Kong.

It was sighted that district councillor Ng Kin-wai of Tin Shui Wai Connection and a HK01 reporter were being pulled into the police cordon line for reasons unknown.

They were both released without being charged by the police.

Ng later told the media at the scene that he was alone on his own and it was technically impossible for the police to ticket him for violating the gathering ban.

HK Police Intervene as Pro-democracy Concern Groups Call Attention to China's Detention of 12 Hongkongers

Uniform police intervened for several times and demanded for the personal information of the members of the two groups.

#TinShuiWaiConnection Reminds Hongkongers to Resist Government's Whitewashing

19:49 | Yuen Long

Yuen Long district Councilor Lam Chun, of the district concern group Tin Shui Wai Connection, displayed an event chronicle of July 21, 2019, where white-clad mobs attacked civilians and passengers including those returning from a pro-democracy protest of the day.

Not only that the police reportedly turned a blind eye to the attacks, but the authorities have been whitewashing the happenings of the day since then. RTHK journalist Bao Choy was even arrested for giving false statement when conducting journalistic investigation.

In the video, Lam expressed frustration and rage at the authorities organised actions to distort the 721 incident in 2019. He called for citizens to collect and retain relevant materials. Lam said hopefully, 721 incident will be justly recorded as part of Hong Kong history in distant future.

Heavy police deployment against peaceful protest and home-heading civilians

1945 | Yuen Long

Dozens of officers have been deployed to Yuen Long MTR Station in anticipation of citizens gathering to remember 7.21 Yuen Long attack. So far, they seem to only be observing the scene.

Few civilians stopped to gather, perhaps because of the recent surge in number of Wuhan Pneumonia cases, or heavy fines for violating the gathering ban. However, police officers could be seen standing close together in groups of ten or more; they do not seem to be bothered at all by the ongoing epidemic.

Heavy police deployment could also be seen outside the bus terminus, where civilians had to pass by in order to head home. No protests were seen at the spot so far.

Hong Kong Police Conduct Search on Citizens Collecting Flowers in Commemoration of 8.31 Prince Edward Station Attack

On May 31, 2021, the members of the pro-democracy group Tin Shui Wan Connection collected flowers from citizens outside the Prince Edward Station in commemoration of the victims of the pro-democracy movement in Hong Kong.

The day marks 21 months after the Hong Kong police assaulted pro-democracy protesters and train passengers inside the Prince Edward Station on August 31, 2019.

On May 31, 2021, the police even took the flower-collecting citizens to the police station and conducted search on them. The police released them but confiscated the carton box they used to collect flowers.
