Question Over Police Treatment of Police Dog


As police fired non stop rounds of tear gas in Yuen Long on October, the fully geared police officers contrast the unprotected police dogs at the scene.

Whereas riot police were massively deployed in Yuen Long on October 21 in response to sit-in organized by citizens; police turned a blind eye the Triad attacks on pedestrians and passersby on July 21.

One Year On: Pro-democracy Protests Connect Hongkongers of Different Ethnicities

Jeffrey Andrews, a social worker in Hong Kong, wrote on his Facebook on Oct 21, 2020:

"Last year [Oct 20, 2019], the Kowloon Mosque, the Chungking Mansions and the minority community faced frustration. We distributed water outside the Chungking Mansions, in a hope to resolve the tension.Who could imagine that this help us achieve the effect of "we connect"?

We are thankful that many Hongkongers reached out and built bridge with us.

This is our Hong Kong."

Mocking remarks sprayed on communal wall targeting magistrate acquitting pro-democracy protesters

A disparaging remark, directing at former magistrate Stanley Ho Chun-yiu, was sighted on the walls of two property buildings on Broadcast Drive in Hong Kong that read, “Police arrests, Magistrate releases”.

Magistrate Ho has been a target of CCP loyalists after he acquitted some pro-democracy protesters and scorned evidence given by some police officers.

The Police Public Relations Bureau confirmed that a report was received at late evening of October 20, informing the police that 4 men riding on a white private car were seen scratching the remark on the wall. The case is tentatively listed as criminal damage with no arrests made.
