Man Demanded to Open Confidential Documents to Police, Threatened With Arrest When Refusing to Comply
[Editor's note: The authorities' infringement on citizens' and businesses' privacy is worrying. On the same day, police had exposed the identity document of a reporter on live stream for 40 seconds, displaying no regard of the protection of personal privacy: https://t.me/guardiansofhongkong/14135]
Riot police entered Harbour City twice to stop and search citizens. Mr Chan, an insurance practitioner, said that when he was searched, the Police accused him of possessing a letter stamped with “confidential” which they claimed did not belong to him. They even attempted to open the letter. Chan explained to the officers that the letter belonged to his client, and the privacy of his client must be respected, but he got retorted by the Police, who claimed that “privacy is not everything.”
The police demanded Chan to call his client for confirmation. Chan did as he was asked, but his request of asking the officers to turn on the loud-speaker was rejected. He was dissatisfied about this, ”What? Then how can I know what you actually heard? I need to protect my rights too!” In the end, the client confirmed that he did give the letter to Chan. Chan continued to reason with the Police, who warned him to stop provoking and inciting citizens on site, or he will be charged with obstructing Police work.

These locations have all experienced tear gas indoors. Some even received direct hits from tear gas canisters fired directly into the indoor area.
Clear warnings labels have been printed on the suppliers' product specifications, as well as on the tear gas canisters itself, reminding users not to release tear gas indoors. Repeated warnings from toxicologists and United Nations experts have all gone unheeded by the Hong Kong Police, who deployed these weapons against its intended purpose and protocol again and again, on at least seven separate occasions.

HK district council members paid tribute to Tiananmen Massacre anniversary
Three district council members paid tribute to the 31st Tiananmen Massacre anniversary today at The Flying Frenchman Monument in Tsim Sha Tsui. Leslie Chan Ka Long (Yau Tsim Mong district), Michael Mo Kwan Tai (Tun Mun district) and Cheung Man Lung (Kwai Tsing district) planned to ring a bell three times at 08:09PM local time.
Due to the extension of physical distancing measures in Hong Kong, Michael Mo said they would only lay flowers and battery-powered candles. There would be no slogan chanting nor movie projection. “We don’t want those who simply want to pay tribute to have come here and ended up being arrested by police for no reason,” he added.
The Flying Frenchman Monument was created by French sculptor Cesar Baldaccini. He spent two years after the Tiananmen Massacre in 1989 to create this piece, originally named The Freedom Fighter, and donated it to Hong Kong where an annual vigil has been taking place since 1990 - until this year.
