#Day25 The past weeks have been very distressing for us. As with the other 11 families, we are deeply concerned about the well-being of our loved ones and @save12hkyouths has been very supportive. We are grateful for their tireless efforts in advocating for the detainees safety-

//It was a shock for the family to see Andy arrested for allegedly breaching the #NSL . It was devastating to imagine the despair he must have felt in seeking to flee. It is pure anguish to not know what Andy is going through right now.//

//People who decided to risk their safety to flee believe there is little chance of a fair trial under an independent judiciary. For them, picking the most perilous route is the only #hope to live a #life in #freedom.//

Does anyone have a good reason to not allow family appointed lawyers for the detained? Why would we need govt-appointed lawyers when we have already found our legal counsel? Our lawyers need to be allowed to visit the detainees. #save12hkyouths twitter.com/XinqiSu/status…

#Day32 And there is still no news. twitter.com/ftchina/status…

According to the group of lawyers who went to visit the detainees, including Andy's, their situation is not optimistic.
"We cannot see them...We waited at the entrance of the detention centre for the entire morning..."

"君と夏の終わり 将来の夢 大きな希望 忘れない
涙をこらえて 笑顔でさようなら せつないよね
You and the end of summer and dreams of the future
And our big hope, I won't forget them
A goodbye when you hold back tears and smile is lonely, isn't it"

HK govt's press release on 26Sept quoted the Guangdong Provincial Public Security Dept to confirm that #12hkyouths had been detained for over 30 days, and Yantian Public Security had yet to file for formal arrest. twitter.com/alvinllum/stat…

Max. period of criminal detention under China's laws is 30 days. Failure to apply for an arrest within the period is illegal. HK govt's press release basically confirmed that the Chinese police are now illegally imprisoning #12hkyouths.

“The Chinese authorities should respect their own laws and allow the 12 Hong Kong detainees access to their relatives and lawyers,” says @hrw. “People in Hong Kong and abroad are watching how the Chinese government deals with these Hong Kong cases.” #AndyIsMissing #save12hkyouths twitter.com/wang_maya/stat…

#Day40
#MidAutumnDay is traditionally a day for family reunion. This year, it's a grim reminder of the absence of loved ones to many families in #HongKong. People has disappeared, lives were lost, and exiles could no longer return.

When China finally announced the arrest of #12HKyouths, they have already been detained for >1month yet no one has been able to make contact with them. It's very worrying that their basic rights for access to legal counsel has been repeatedly denied.

Knowing that different parts of the world are keeping an eye on the plight of the #12HKyouths means a lot to us. We need the international community to stand by #HongKongers and #save12hkyouths twitter.com/tzmwm/status/1…

“This is what we had been fearing when we protested against the extradition bill, that people from #HongKong could get sent over to China into a totally different system that’s well known for not following their own laws.”
How right we were last year.

.@appledaily_hk found that a govt aircraft had been circling the waters where the speedboat was believed to be at on Aug23 despite HKPF claims that they had known nothing beforehand.
How many lies have we heard already?

The more we look into the details the more evidence we see the HK govt is actively colluding with Chinese govt to get the #12HKyouths into CCP's hands.
We still don't know when, where and how the boat disappeared from the world that day.

First they look for the whistleblower. Then they go for those around them. When will the government understand that intimidation does not stop the people from resisting a totalitarian government, nor could such diversion tactics hide the truth from the world forever. twitter.com/HKGlobalConnec…
