6.12 First Anniversary|People gathered to commemorate 612 police detained 43 people involved in injuries and illegal assembly

2020-06-13T13:42:25.493Z


The revised draft of the "Fugitive Offenders Ordinance" triggered millions of people to take to the streets. On June 12, last year, a large number of demonstrators surrounded and attacked the Legislative Council, and set off a prelude to the anti-amendment incident. Yesterday (12th) was the first anniversary of 6.12. Some netizens called on the public to gather in multiple districts at night and sang the anti-revision song "May the glory return to Hong Kong" at 8 pm. The police indicated at 3 o'clock yesterday that they would "decisively enforce the law." In the evening, large-scale intercept operations were also initiated. Last night, a large number of people gathered in Causeway Bay, Yuen Long, Mong Kok and Kwun Tong, during which conflicts occurred in many areas. The police dispersed the gathering in Tsim Sha Tsui, Mong Kok and Causeway Bay, and once sprayed pepper spray. As of 0:30 am today (13th), the police arrested a total of 43 people, including 28 men and 15 women. Among those arrested were Democrat Legislator Xu Zhifeng and several district board members. They are suspected of hurting people, participating in illegal assembly, participating in unauthorized assembly, misconduct in public places, and possession of offensive weapons.
