[Special] Inside the court room of ‘8.18’ case: a group of defendants with grey hair, a startlingly severe sentence
It was 16 April 2021 afternoon in Court number one of West Kowloon Magistracy. Judge Amanda WOODCOCK pronounced that the nine defendants’ acts to lead the procession on ‘8.18’ (18 August 2019) were an obvious challenge to police power, law and discipline. Imprisonment was the only appropriate choice. She sentenced Jimmy LAI Chee Ying, Martin LEE Chu Ming, Margaret NG Oi Yee, LEUNG Kwok Hung, LEE Cheuk Yan, Cyd HO Sau Lan, Albert HO Chun Yan, AU Nok Hin and LEUNG Yiu Chung to be imprisoned for periods varying from 8 to 18 months. Among the group only 4 were granted suspensions while the other 5 had to be sent to jail immediately.
