Court Rules Former lawmaker Guilty of "'Assaulting two police officers with a loudspeaker"

During a civilian-police standoff in Yau Ma Tei on July 8, 2019, Au Nok-hin, a former lawmaker, was arrested for "assaulting the police" by speaking via the megaphone.

Au had pleaded not guilty at Kowloon City Court.

In delivering the verdict on April 6, magistrate Leung Ka-kie, however, said one officer's hearing was damaged. The magistrate also claimed that the other police officer was "afraid" due to Au's facial expressions and force, Au had "struck the police,shield with the loudhailer three times".

[Editor's note: Despite reports of police brutality, most police are unaffected by their misconduct. For instance, the police who rammed his motorcycle into the protesters is still serving the force.]
