The Superintendent of Police issued a report on the anti-amendment incident the day before (15th). On the same day, Chief Executive Lin Zheng Yuee held a press conference to accept the report, calling it "the truth of Hong Kong" and continuing to refuse to establish an independent investigation committee. However, the content of the report was questioned and biased towards the police, and the issue of the police was downplayed. The controversy continued to expand. The Hong Kong and Taiwan program "Urban Forum" discussed related issues today (17th).

Yuen Long District Council Member Cheung Soo Hyun questioned that the report did not even know what the "facts" were, and even quoted from a microblog from the mainland, referring to a false picture of someone calling into Yuen Long demonstration on the day of 7.21. Chen Jinrong, a member of the Steering Committee of the Task Force of the Supervisory Commission, admitted that the Supervisory Commission did not investigate the source of the picture and who produced it because they did not have the right to investigate.

Zheng Chenglong, a former member of the Supervisory Commission, believes that this time the Supervisory Commission did not take further steps to exhaust the power conferred by the regulations. It was impossible to convince the public to meet with the people involved in the incident. He also pointed out that although he did not believe that someone died in the attack on the 8.31 Prince's Station, the rationale put forward by the Supervisory Commission was hardly convincing.

Zhang Xiuxian: Report "Everywhere you look, your eyes are raised"

Participants at the forum included Chen Jinrong, Zhang Xiuxian, Zheng Chenglong, and Liang Yaoting, former president of the Education University Student Union. Zhang Xiuxian pointed out that the 721 incident caused social panic. The residents "received nothing at all" from the report. He said that on the day of the incident, many residents saw a group of white people gathering and beating people. The report was taken lightly. The "facts" mentioned in the report are also very one-sided. The content quoted online pictures that someone was called to Yuen Long to demonstrate at the time, but the picture was later revealed to be a fake picture, and the source was Weibo on the mainland.

He also pointed out that the report distorted the 7.21 incident into a "conflict between a black man and a white man", but in fact the white man even beats pregnant women; the report also said that the police "looked at the watch" and "can't see the offensive weapon" that night 'S remarks have dropped into "public relations" issues. Zhang Xiuxian described the report as "unbelievable", and he and other district councillors "have a bulging eye." Zhang also mentioned that the report believed in the police's words, believing that the 999 report center received a large number of calls that night because some people wanted to "paralyze" the system, but in fact the public had no help that night, and the police station closed again, of course, constantly hitting 999.

Chen Jinrong responded that the report mainly listed the time sequence of the facts based on the information collected. They also observed that the police did not handle 7.21 as well. As for the pictures, they received the information provided by the public and the pictures they saw on the Internet, but admitted that the pictures "do it and do it". They have not done these investigation procedures because the IPCC did not Right to investigate.

Liang Yaoting: 8.31 victims can be interviewed without investigative power

Liang Yaoting, who was arrested by the police during the 8.31 Prince's Station attack, said that for the 8.31 attack, the Superintendent would never find him and many people who were injured in the Prince's Station. The so-called "facts" are very one-sided. He believes that "the IPCC does not have the power to investigate" is not a reason for not voluntarily meeting with the parties. For example, journalists do not have the power to investigate.

Liang Yaoting also questioned that the large length of the report distorted the content of the 8.31 incident into "strategies to deal with speculation and public relations." But in fact, the public is not most concerned about this, but the police's conduct and blocking behavior. Why can they come to the station? Fight when you see someone. " The report also did not mention that the MTR evacuated all passengers in the Prince's Station that day, but the police also blocked the station and prohibited entry and exit, and the arrangement was contradictory. He questioned that the Supervisory Commission has been reduced to "police public relations consultant."

The IPCC report quoted an online picture, saying that someone initiated a Yuen Long rally, but the picture has long been pointed out as a fake picture. Chen Jinrong admitted that they did not investigate the source of the pictures in detail. (Report screenshot)

Commissioner Chen Jinrong: I do n’t see any evidence of dead people, so no dead people

Regarding the question of whether there were any deaths in the incident on that day, the report considers this statement to be an "unusual proposition" and refers to Hong Kong ’s dense population and close interpersonal relationships. The departments colluded with "almost impossible" at the same time.

Zheng Chenglong pointed out that although he did not believe that someone died at the station that day, the interpretation of the entire report is not enough to win the trust of people. Those who do not believe in the government will continue to believe and continue to believe that someone died. He believes that if you can list all the film timings, what decisions the fire department made, the rationale behind, etc., it will be more persuasive, and that it cannot be logically ruled out that no one has no relatives. The host later asked what the reason for the Superintendent's Committee's view was that no one died in the 8.31 incident. Chen Jinrong responded by saying, "I don't see any evidence of death," so I believe no one has died.

Zheng Chenglong: The IPCC may invite 8.31 parties to have past examples

Zheng Chenglong also mentioned that the Supervisory Commission's report handling work is relatively conservative this time and has not done everything it can. It is believed that seeking advice from the parties of the 8.31 incident can provide more and more comprehensive information. He recalled that when he dealt with a series of incidents in which Li Keqiang, the deputy premier of the State Council, visited Hong Kong in 2011 and a man was arrested in Ligang City wearing a June 4th blouse. dialogue.

The Commission issued a report on May 15, but the content caused controversy in many places. (Photo by Luo Junhao)
