The 12 Hong Kong residents suspected of committing the crime of stealing across the border from the Mainland were detained in Shenzhen for more than two months.
It is reported that at least five law firms in the Mainland have received an oral notice from the local Judicial Bureau, prohibiting lawyers from representing this case, and if the lawyers who have represented the case, they must also terminate the appointment and withdraw from the case.
Democratic Party Legislative Council Member Tu Jinshen believes that the practice reflects that the mainland authorities have formally deprived the arrested persons of their legal rights to freely choose their lawyers, saying that they "prove that the mainland cannot even govern the country by law."

Five lawyers commissioned by the family went to Shenzhen Yantian Detention Center last Thursday to request a meeting with the client, but they were refused.
It is reported that at least five law firms in the Mainland have received an oral notice from the local Judicial Bureau, prohibiting lawyers from representing this case, and if the lawyers who have represented the case, they must also terminate the appointment and withdraw from the case.
Tu Jinshen believes that the incident involves the legal rights of Hong Kong people and has attracted widespread attention from Hong Kong and the world. The SAR government has the responsibility to protect Hong Kong people's legitimate rights and interests in the Mainland. He asked the Chief Executive Carrie Lam to go to Beijing later, The Beijing authorities reflect that Hong Kong people have not received legal rights guaranteed by law, including the right to freely choose lawyers and represent their families to meet with arrested persons in accordance with the law; and that minor arrested persons cannot obtain legal assistance from lawyers entrusted by their parents.
