The Anti-Amendment Movement has been held for more than half a year. The police have held a regular press conference since August. Jiang Yongxiang, a senior police superintendent of the Police Public Relations Division, has been one of the speakers. He was interviewed by Cable News earlier, stating that 721 "has been led by a group of demonstrators into Yuen Long". Legislative Council Member Lin Zhuoting rebuked the lies and hurt the victims a second time. Jiang Yongxiang was repeatedly questioned during the regular press conference this afternoon, saying that "the quotes in the report are only a small part of the interview", saying that his observations do not represent the conclusions of the police, and the incident is still under investigation.

"Quotes are only a small part of the interview"

Jiang Yongxiang was asked and who the “leader” he was referring to. He said he had answered many questions during the acceptance of “Cable News”, and the quotes in the report were only a small part of the interview. His statement at the time was based on his observations in different media or screens, and did not represent the police's conclusion of the incident. The police condemned any violence in the incident.

Entering judicial proceedings without supplement

Jiang Yongxiang pointed out that the police have conducted a detailed investigation into the incident and the investigation is still ongoing. During the process, the police have arrested 37 people, of which 7 were prosecuted, and the case is still referred to the District Court. In addition, several CAPO complaints are ongoing. He believes that after the investigation of the entire incident, the public will have a clearer understanding, because the incident has entered judicial proceedings, so there is no other supplement. During the press conference, Jiang Yongxiang was repeatedly questioned. The chief superintendent of the Public Relations Division of the higher police, Guo Jiayu, said at least three times that the incident had been investigated by a criminal investigation without any supplement.

There is no substantial evidence against You Naiqiang for normal transfer

At the time of the 721 incident, Yu Nai-qiang, the assistant commander of the Yuen Long Police District, was questioned by Legislative Council Member Lin Zhuoting as one of the suspects, but was transferred to the New Territories North Regional Criminal Headquarters to investigate the incident. Asked how to ensure a fair investigation, Senior Police Superintendent Li Guihua of the Organized Crime and Triad Investigation Division said that the police attach great importance to the charge of a crime, but the police will check whether the evidence of the charge is sufficient to take action. Several methods are required. If discipline is involved, disciplinary action is required. More serious arrests are required for criminal investigation. However, the accusation against You Naiqiang was only in the "accusation stage". There was no substantive evidence to enter another stage. Therefore, the police did not take disciplinary action against him. He could continue to perform his work, and his transfer was normal and transferred to a suitable position.

Criminal prosecution investigation

Li Guihua pointed out that the criminal prosecution investigation "is not a single person, it is a comprehensive investigation." Many supervisors investigate the investigation direction and progress of incidents on time. It is not that an individual in a certain unit can affect the entire investigation. It is the standard for heavy cases or general investigations. "Please rest assured."
