Last updated date: 2019-11-25 19:27The Chief Executive Lin Zhengyue cited the "Emergency Law" to establish the "Forbidden Mask Method". Earlier, two judges of the High Court ruled that the Constitution was unconstitutional. The Government has indicated that it will appeal and last week asked the judges of the court to declare that the relevant legislation is still valid or to suspend the ruling. However, the judge finally promised to suspend for a week to allow the female government to apply for an appeal. The Government responded that it has appealed to the Court of Appeal against the judgment and order of the Court of First Instance. It is not appropriate to make any comments at this stage.
On October 4 this year, the Chief Executive Lin Zhengyue cites the "Emergency Law" on the grounds of "Hazardous Public Security". However, many people have submitted judicial review of their decisions. The High Court first dealt with the applications of 24 members of the Pan-People's Legislative Council and Liang Guoxiong, who had the term "Long Hair", and pointed out that the "Emergency Law" gave the Chief Executive the power to be too big. If the legislation was "criticized by the public security", the Chief Executive There are unrestricted powers and they are considered to be unconstitutional. In addition, the two officers also consider that some of the provisions of the Forbidden Mask Act have imposed excessive restrictions on the public and are also unconstitutional.
The representative of the Attorney General said that he would appeal the case and requested that the court's quasi-legal still be valid or suspend the ruling. However, the judge said that although the current situation in Hong Kong is grim, no violent incident has increased or become more serious since the ruling. In fact, there are no cases in which the extremely violent people are guilty of breaking the law. The relevant provisions still have many controversial points. They believe that if the law is allowed to continue, it will only bring more endless disputes. Oh, I refused my application.
However, the judge also considered that the Government is ready to appeal the case. Therefore, the ruling will be suspended for one week to allow the Attorney General to make an appeal and go through the relevant formalities.
