Don't worry about getting involved in the case
When receiving enquiries, He Junyao said that if Lin Zhuoting did not plead guilty, he could defend himself in court. He criticized the Democratic Party Chairman Hu Zhiwei and others this morning for accusing the police of "referring to a deer as a horse" and interfering with the police investigation and "politics overriding the rule of law."
He Junyao once pointed out that Lin Zhuoting played a certain role in the 721 incident. He said that his views have remained unchanged. As for whether he was worried about his involvement in the case, He Junyao said that if he committed a crime, the police could sue him.
He Junyao also posted on Facebook saying that the headlines this morning were "exciting." Lin Zhuoting was arrested on suspicion of participating in the riots. "This day has finally come." He sarcastically said that being arrested would make people "become more exciting." He said that he would not "open champagne" to celebrate, and it would not be too late until the court convicted and the appeal period was over. "I don't even know Judge Ban to explain (how to sentence)."
