【今個星期日 晚上7點半 將軍澳見 他只有22歲】

死去既手足 —— 必須為佢咃討回公道,沉冤得雪,清算每個警謊;

在世嘅手足——必須尊重和保護,他們曾受拘留、折磨;曾被圍堵嘅手足,被痛苦的記憶,黑色的陰影籠罩,需要大家實實在在嘅支持同信任—— 真香港人 真有情 從未捨棄。

See you in Tseung Kwan O this Sunday at 7pm

He was only 22 years old.

We must seek justice for comrades who sacrificed their lives, expose every lie from the police, and hold them accountable for their fault.

Surviving comrades deserve our respect and protection; those being detained, tortured, and besieged, are living with painful memories or hiding in dark shadows. They need real support and trust from every citizen of Hong Kong.
Hongkongners are compassionate and they would never abandon anyone.

Retain your righteous indignation.
Keep your hearts warm.
Until Hong Kong has been liberated.
This fight shall go on.
2020, let us fight till the end!

We will remove our masks under “the pot”.

「他」帶著抗爭之心,獨自拿著抗爭標語,聽著旁邊busking的音樂 — 那人正在燈火闌珊處。香港人,你們看到嗎?

1st Anniversary of June 12:
Hong Kong Pro-Democracy Movement in 366 Days, 8784 Hours

On June 12, 2019, Hongkongers protested outside the Legislative Council to oppose the second reading of the controversial extradition law.

The police deployed at least 150 rounds of tear gas, along with pepper spray and rubber bullets, to disperse peaceful civilians, leading to public outcry towards police brutality since then.

Since then, the protests in pursuit of freedom and democracy go on, despite adversity.

Eastern Magistrates’ Court trial of Chan Yi-chun

(15 Jun) Chan’s mum gripped his arm tightly, and his girlfriend followed silently, worrying.

“As you could see from the news clips, he was severely beaten on the head. He lied down but they kept beating...” Chan’s mum frowned and mumbled, grasping her son’s arm in distress. She must have said it many times. “Yes we know, you should listen to what the lawyer has to say first”, Chan Yi-chun said to his mother. The legal team listened, and Chan himself understood that these were his mother’s concerns, not court testimony. Others understood as well and did not try to stop Chan’s mum from speaking.

All we could do is to worry for him and support him.” As a mother, she could only worry. Not to mention that it was the third day of trial and the situation was not hopeful. In the judgement, the judge said that the police’s statement was “unequivocal”, “simple, direct”, “solid and consistent”, therefore, it is “the truth”. The defendant “repeatedly refused to listen” under the use of baton, and when faced with a “strong, forceful” man like him, the officer was bound to use “appropriate force”. “Fortunately the officer was wearing riot gear so there were no further casualties”, the judge added (a rather ironic comment).

Chan was repeatedly crushed and beaten by police with baton, yet the judge said, The defendant was conscious enough to call out his name even though he was bleeding from the head. These actions are considered as resistance, not self-defense”. Looking at the medical report, the judge asked, “Was it the defendant who told the doctor that he was ‘hit on the head by a baton’?”. The judge continued to ask, “Why did he say this to the doctor? There is no evidence that these injuries were caused by a baton”. Chan was convicted on all three counts.

Upon hearing the sentence, Chan’s girlfriend and mother were in tears, but Chan did not cry. He was immediately remanded in custody.

He took three deep breaths, nodded at the public gallery from afar, and gazed at his mother, girlfriend and friends. He didn’t take his eyes off them.

The prison van drove past and the crowd saw him off. Before the sentencing, Chan recorded a voice message:
“After all, I fought for my freedom, although in the end I have lost it.”
“If I have decided to stay in Hong Kong, I have to accept its system and play by its rules.”


He is only a 19-year-old young man, and he has been convicted.

But at least he is a polite, truthful young man who is brave to face his future.
