#LawrenceLauWaiChung said, "Not guilty, sir," elegant as usual.
#LamCheukTing almost roared, "I don't plead guilty!"
#LeungKwokHung (a.k.a. #LongHair) said, "[I'm] Innocent. Plead not guilty."
#WinnieYuWaiMing raised her right hand and stated, "Not guilty."
The magistrate, Peter Law Tak Chuen, referred the 17 defendants to the High Court for trial.
The other 29 of them chose to plead guilty. Among them, #TiffanyYuenKaWai, #FrankieFungTatChuen, #CarolNgManYee, #GaryFanKwokWai and #HendickLuiChiHang, refused to agree all facts of the cases.
Everyone has a different way of pleading guilty:
#TiffanyYuen whispered, "Plead ah! (認呀！)."
#FergusLeungFongWai said with a tone of no choice, "Plead guilty lo! (認囉！)."
#FrankieFung said in Cantonese, "I plead guilty," then repeated in Mandarin, "I plead guilty, I know I was wrong,” causing the auditorium to laugh and #KwokKaKi thumbs up with a smile.
#LauChakFung just left his seat for the washroom, and somebody said, "he will plead guilty even in the toilet."
#JoshuaWong slowly spoke out, "Plead~ guilty~."
#LiKaTat shouted, "PG!"
#TamTakChi (a.k.a. #FastBeat) confidently said while brushing his hair, "I am 'handsome'" [Handsome has a similar sound as "plead" in Cantonese]
#WuChiWai followed, "Plead ah! (認呀！)," looking at #TamTakChi, and they both laughed.
#SamCheungHoSum declared, "I plead, I plead, I plead (認啊認啊認啊)" in one go.
#VentusLauWingHong said, "For the love of my country, I plead guilty," raising uproar among defendants.
Law, the magistrate, asked whether the 26 defendants agreed with the case.
#AuNokHin stood up at that moment and expressed heavily, "I confirmed the case, and I would like to apologise to all defendants because I could not ensure the election was legal." He then slightly bowed to the defendants.
#AndrewChiuKaYin also apologized, but expressionless, "I confirm the overall case, and I apologise to everyone who helped in the pre-election." Some defendants jeered, "What are you saying (講呢啲)?"
#TamTakChi (a.k.a #FastBeat) shouted as usual, "I agree with the plot!", followed by a severe facial expression, "I agree, I agree (同意啊、同意啊)," which brought laughter to the courtroom. He then turned around, spoke to #ClaudiaMo, "Yes, excellent!" and raised his arms to the air with thumbs up.
#LeslieShumOFai interrupted, "I am not a comedy actor."
The magistrates confirmed whether Tam agreed with the entire case. He answered, "Yes, then I agree with the full case." Law raises the question once more, "You agree?" "The plot? Yes." Tam replied
It is understood that there will be no jury at the trial. This case will be handled by three designed judges, as in the case of #TongYingKit. It reminds us of #OwenChowKaShing, who did not plead guilty and yelled at the court after the restriction on reporting was lifted, "Trial without a jury is unjust."
This was probably the most potent conclusion in West Kowloon Magistrates' Courts for a year and a half.
