On August 5 the previous year, there was a "three strikes" multi-zone clashes in Hong Kong. Demonstrators blocked the road in Wong Tai Sin. During this period, a designer was arrested on the spot when he threw objects and waved an umbrella at the police.
He pleaded guilty to the riot before the trial, and was sentenced in the District Court today (22nd). Judge Chen Guangchi pointed out that although the defense submitted a case involving the 2016 riot, the extent and depth of the incident in 2019 was even greater. He pointed out that the incident was unprecedented for Hong Kong, a turning point in life for the defendant without a case, and a tragedy for his parents and wives. He added: "A person who commits a crime is not a crime, but a family. Should bear it.” Taking into account the defendant’s guilt, he believed that his family would help him become a law-abiding man again, and he was sentenced to 45 months in prison.

The defendant had a certain load, including gloves, ambulance supplies, etc., and he stood in front of the crowd and acted as a shock, taking the lead and demonstrating. At that time, it seemed that the police were outnumbered and the defendant even tried to throw tear gas. shell.
An inspector permanently lost his front tooth
Chen Guan also cited Liang Tianqi’s case as saying that if public order is not maintained, society will fall into a state of lawlessness. He also said that the case involved pre-planning, and that the number of participants was large and the scale was large. One of the injured inspectors permanently lost his front teeth, but did not. The evidence alleges that the defendant participated in the planning.
