Messages to Deceased Protesters: We Dare Not Forget You, We Dare Not Giving Up
20:48 | Kwun Tong
Civilians wrote messages in remembrance of deceased protesters and victms of state violence, and to encourage each other in their fight for democracy.
These words shout and cry for protestors in Hong Kong. Chan Yin-Lam will truly rest in peace only when police are held accountable for what they've done. Hong Kongers should never forget and never forgive. We must stay strong and fearless in the face of totalitarianism!
一句句無聲的說話，就像帶著哭泣聲般沉重，若然警方的暴行未能受到制裁，相信陳同學也定不能安息，我們永遠不會原諒他們所犯下的種種人道罪行，香港人一定會堅強地、永不退縮地對抗暴政！

Police are guarding at every level of Sheung Tak Carpark, where 22-year-old Chow Tsz-lok fell from height for reasons unknown during police operation in the area last November. Chow passed away after hospitalization. The carpark has since then become a site for memorials to take place.
March 22 marks 6 months after the death of 15-year-old Chan Yin-lam who used to study in a school in the same district. The cause of Chan's death remains unknown. Having participated in the pro-democracy movement, her body, naked, were discovered in the waters last October. Police said there was nothing suspicious.

Altar for the Deceased in Pro-democracy Movement Demolished During Construction Work
Chow Tsz-lok, a 22-year-old university student, and Chan Yin-lam, a 15-year-old Hong Kong Design Institute student, passed away last year, both suspected to be victims of police violence.
An altar has been set up by citizens near Sheung Tak Estate carpark, but it was destroyed and demolished multiple times. The altar on the ground floor was blocked by partitions, whereas the one on the second floor, where Chow fell, was covered with white cloth. Workers covered the wall paintings with paint.
Link Asset Management Limited, who managed the carpark, emphasised that a renovation project was planned earlier last year, long before the anti-ELAB movement and the incident of Chow, thus this was not related to the government’s demolition of the altars.

HK Police Order Bereaved Families Mourning the Lamma Ferry Collision Victims for the 8th Year to "Stop Acting"
On September 30, 2020, an open letter was issued by the families of the victims of the Lamma ferry collision, which took place on October 1, 2012.
The letter asks the Hong Kong authorities to reveal the truth behind the tragic collision that claimed 39 lives and do justice as had been promised.
It is revealed that after 8 years, the police investigation remains unfinished. Owing to the incomplete police report, death certificates cannot be issued to the victims. Without any concrete answer, the authorities forced their families to “let go and move on”.
8 years since their family members had passed away, the bereaved familes are still waiting for the truth they rightly deserved to be revealed.
In the latest open letter, the families demanded a thorough investigation of the cause of the collision, a full disclosure of the report and the conviction of the marine officers involved.
Every year, friends and families of the victims mourned at the Central Ferry Pier, where the fatal ferry had never arrived, bringing with them flowers and paper offerings.
For the first time after 8 years, on Oct 1, 2020, police interrupted the mournin and ordered the saddened families to “stop acting” and disperse.
Police officers even removed right away the families’ offerings to the deceased, causing an elderly burst into tears and faint on the scene.
Regardless, the police continued their action and fined the bereaved families for breaching the gathering ban.

HK Security Secretary Connects Sympathy to Participation; LIHKG to be probed
In a meeting in Hong Kong's Legislative Council that is dominated by pro-Beijing lawmakers on July 6, 2021, Secretary for Security #ChrisTang referred the 2019 pro-democracy movement to "color revolution" that aimed at subverting the regime. The former police commissioner also urged citizens to condemn and report.
Tang said, "We will make not only the terrorists, but also the supporters and those who attempt to tone it down, live like rats."
On July 1, 2021, a 50-year-old Hong Kong man called #LeungKinFai died after knifing a police officer and stabbing himself reportedly on the chest. In following days, many Hongkongers mourned the man and brought flowers to the site.
The authorities claimed that mourning as well as posting comments about the man's death could breach the #NationalSecurityLaw.
Law professor #JohannesChan at the University of Hong Kong (#HKU) disagreed and pointed out that mourning the deceased out of sympathy is not a criminal act. Chan criticized that the "red line" drawn by the government is "way too unreasonable".
Secretary for Security Chris Tang, however, insisted that sympathy is a form of support and support is a form of participation.
Tang said, "depending on individual cases, we will see whether we have evidence to make arrests and take our prosecutions."
With reference to Prof Chan, Tang said, "I hope this legal scholar can sleep at night. because you might have painted Hong Kong in blood."
In addition, Tang said that the next target is the Internet Forum #LIHKG because it is "filled with illegal information". Tang claimed that authorities will make arrests and force the websites and the users to remove their messages.

HK Police Deploys 8,000 Officers on China's National Day, Intimidating Journalists and Civilians
On October 1, 2021, the Hong Kong police force deployed 8,000 officers across the city. The authority claimed that they will patrol in what they claimed to be the "sensitive areas". The police also had the Golden Bauhinia Square and the Exhibition and Convention Centre in Wanchai, where the flag raising ceremony takes place, cordoned off. The day marks the 62th anniversary of the establishment of the People's Republic of China (#PRC) by the Chinese Communist Party (#CCP).
In Causeway Bay, around #VictoriaPark and the SOGO Department Store, many uniform police were standing by. Some journalists had been stopped and checked for three times during 45 minutes.
The police asked a journalist, "why are you filming the police instead of the [Chinese] national flag on the National Day?"
