There were exhibitions of anti-revision incidents in many districts in Hong Kong, and the police carried out several dispersal operations. During the operation in Causeway Bay, Democratic Legislative Council Member Xu Zhifeng called out to the police for restraint in a loud voice. He was dragged to the rear lane of Kimberly Plaza by police officers to search and question him. Once he was released, he explained the incident to reporters and was then illegal by police officers. He was arrested for the crime of mass assembly and was unconditionally released by the police at the "Kick Bao" this (13th) afternoon.
Xu Zhifeng met with the media outside the North Point Police Station and stated that he had confessed his lawyer to the court to apply for a personal protection order after his arrest. It is unknown whether the police released him because he received relevant information.
Xu Zhifeng was arrested last night for the crime of illegal assembly and was unconditionally released by the police at the "Kick Bao" this (13th) afternoon.
At 8:30 last night, the police held a blue flag in the direction of the World Trade Center on East Point Road. Xu Zhifeng urged police officers not to provoke public sentiment and remain calm and restrained. They were dragged by the riot police to the back lane of Kimberley Mall inside the blockade. Search and question. Xu Zhifeng was released afterwards, telling the media that the riot police made provocations during the interrogation, and his wrists were greatly twisted. The police officer walked to him again and officially arrested him.
Xu Zhifeng was released unconditionally this afternoon. He told the media that last night was an arbitrary and ridiculous illegal arrest operation, and believed that the intention was to maliciously retaliate against him for filing a private prosecution against the Xiwanhe police officer. Xu Zhifeng stated that the police's behavior could not suppress himself to perform his duties as a parliamentarian.
During his arrest, Xu Zhifeng instructed his lawyer to apply for a personal protection order. He originally planned to hold a court hearing tonight, but the police have released him early and the relevant legal procedures have been terminated. The personal protection order allows anyone to make an application when the police illegally detain the detainee and immediately submit to the court to determine whether it is legally detained. Xu Zhifeng urged members of the public to refer to relevant practices and use judicial channels to stop the police from indiscriminately arresting and accusing the police, and reserves the right to trace back in the future.
