2/ Yan (medics) said #hkpolice pointed guns at him & smashed him with batons when he was providing the first-aid service during #PolyUSiege. Inspector tried to plant evidence by putting a gas bomb into his bag. Luckily his bag was full at that time so #police’s move was in vain.

[#Policebrutality in police stations is beyond our imagination.]
1/ Uncountable arrestees filed their torture complaints to courts since last summer, while 100+ had to stay in hospitals & miss the hearings due to severe injuries eg. concussions, broken bones & vision loss.

6/ Tonight’s assembly shows that #coronavirus does not kill the spirit of #hongkongprotests. The plague will end one day. But under #China's authoritarian rule, #HK’s freedom, human rights and autonomy can only be protected with the arrival of democracy.

5/ Bursting into tears, Andrew criticized #police for shamefully arousing people’s sentiment in order to justify their violent suppression.

3/ #hkpolice abused the 4-person group limit to target political dissents. Days ago, police used the same excuse to ban forthcoming #LabourDay demonstrations. Also, the whole mall was forced to shut down after police interrupted assembly. Clearly, police escalated the situation.

@joshuawongcf
2/ But no matter how peaceful it was, over thousand #hkpolice were deployed to suppress such a non-violent assembly. Police pointed rubber bullet guns at unarmed citizens and tourists. Residents were forcibly pushed into corners. Reporters were humiliated by police with F-words.

1/ Although #China’s liaison office has been toughening its control on #HK in recent weeks, #Hongkongers do not scare off. Tonight, thousands of #hongkongprotesters sang #GloryToHK at Cityplaza and reminded all #hkers of our cause for democracy.

Therefore, I call upon the EU side to launch sanctions on the Chinese government if it insists on covering up the truth.

@joshuawongcf
It is utterly irresponsible and dubious for China to reject any inquiry into the origin of the virus. The coverup does not only trample on the people’s right to know, but also threaten people’s life and death. Days ago, China even denied the existence of wet markets......

2/ But #HK Judge offered sympathy to the assailant, without slamming his cruel move during sentencing yesterday. Instead, he violated his impartiality by spending one-third of the time criticizing #HKprotests & comparing victims that just delivered leaflets as "terrorist army”.

@joshuawongcf
3/ He even praised the assailant as "an involuntary sacrifice and a bloodstained victim hanging by his last breath”, while the victims, the ones truly laying in blood, were slammed as "ruthlessly trampled on his right to work, live and survive.”

1/ Three #hongkongers were slashed by a pro-#Beijing mob with a beef knife, with wounds on her left chest and chin, broken ribs, lungs collapsed with blood, suffering from post-traumatic stress, when handing out leaflets at #lennonwalls last night

Martin: HKers now face 2 plagues from China: the coronavirus & attacks on basic human rights. We can all hope a vaccine is soon developed for coronavirus. But once HK’s rule of law is rolled back, the fatal virus of authoritarian rule will be here to stay. washingtonpost.com/opinions/2020/…

Allowing Taiwan into the WHO could save tens of thousands of lives from a virus which came from China & grew into a pandemic because of Beijing’s lies.
