The full statement is as follows:
//The Police released a documentary named “Starry Night”, jointly produced with Phoenix TV, on its social media platforms on July 22nd. The said documentary features two video clips of the police shooting an individual in the left chest in Tsuen Wan (51:51 - 53:10) on October 1st, 2019. These clips were captured by reporters affiliated with Campus TV, HKUSU (hereinafter “Campus TV”).

It is confirmed that both parties have used video clips owned by Campus TV without gaining any approval.
Campus TV has contacted the Police and Phoenix TV, via email and phone respectively, to inquire how they obtained, and gained authorisation for the use of, the said video clips - but to no avail. Instead of giving a direct answer, the Information and Publicity Officer from the Police Public Relations Branch detailed the production process of the documentary in its 409-word reply. Phoenix TV has refused to answer the questions raised by Campus TV directly.
As of publication, there has not been any response regarding the acquisition of the said clips.
Campus TV hereby strongly condemns the unauthorised use and editing of videos recorded by its reporters by the Police and Phoenix TV in their documentary. Such acts are nothing but disrespectful to Campus TV. Campus TV demands that the Police and Phoenix TV respect the efforts of every journalist, especially those working at the frontlines; as well as promise to seek their authorisation and indicate the source of the clips utilised before publication.
