Last update date: 2020-08-28 02:21The 7.21 Yuen Long incident occurred more than a year ago. On Wednesday (26th), the Hong Kong police arrested 13 "people not in white", including the Legislative Council member Lin Cheuk Ting who was injured that day, and charged a total of 7 people including Lin Cheuk Ting for participating in the riot. When the Senior Superintendent of the Criminal Headquarters of the New Territories North Region, Chen Tianzhu explained the case on the same day, he said that the incident was a violent conflict that evolved from the confrontation and gathering of people with different opinions and factions. Many of the descriptions in it are very different from the report of the Police Supervision Commission.
The British sociologist Clifford Stott, who once commented on the IPCC’s “lack of power and independent investigative capabilities,” and has withdrawn from its international panel of experts, said on Twitter on Thursday (27th) that he believes that the police’s actions obviously need to rewrite history to comply with the police. The idea of portraying the demonstrators as "irrational thugs" also refers to the fact that the police and the SAR government are jointly fighting against the democratic movement in Hong Kong.
The chairman of the IPCC, Leung Dingbang, pointed out that how others interpret the IPCC's report is a matter of opinion. In response to Chen Tianzhu’s remarks, the Commissioner of Police, Tang Pingqiang, also pointed out that "unnecessary comments, no need to speak."

Clifford Stott said that the police's handling of the 7.21 Yuen Long incident reflected that they were cooperating with the SAR government to crack down on the democracy movement in Hong Kong. He also said that there is no need to be surprised by the police actions, because the police only rewrite the history that belongs to them in 2019 to conform to their ideology of portraying demonstrators as "irrational thugs", emphasizing that the police's strategy is to often describe behind the "thugs" It was controlled by foreign forces and collected money, but he has never seen the relevant evidence, "that is completely inconsistent with the facts."

In an interview with CNN, Liang Dingbang, chairman of the IPCC, said that how the outside world interprets the IPCC report is a matter of opinion, emphasizing that the so-called "yes" and "no" depend on the focus of the incident. "After you write the (report), your own Ideas are your own ideas.”
