The 19-year-old young man was suspected of attacking a sergeant with a stick at a Hong Kong Island rally the year before, and even dropped the stick. He denied the charges. The case was opened in the Eastern District Court today (9th). The defense cross-examined the sergeant who claimed to have been attacked that day. In his logbook, it only recorded that the defendant had "attempted" or "attempted" to swing a stick at him. It also pointed out that the police at the scene suspected that the stick that did not belong to the defendant was a weapon used by the defendant to attack the police. Insert the blame.
The magistrate adjourned the case to 4 pm for a ruling.
The defendant Wang Weitai (19 years old) was charged with one count of assaulting a police officer, alleging that he assaulted Sheriff Deng Junye at the junction of Gloucester Road and Luard Road in Wan Chai on November 2, 2019.
There were 200 to 300 demonstrators on that day
Sheriff Deng Junye was the police officer who arrested the defendant that day. He said that at about 5 pm that day, he was on guard in a police car on Gloucester Road. When the police car drove along the road to the vicinity of Luard Road, about 200 to 300 people were found rushing out of the car window. When they came out, some of them were holding wooden sticks and other weapons.
Deng said that he felt that the crowd on the road was related to the illegal gathering nearby, so he got off the car with his colleagues and asked them to disperse.
See the defendant holding a white stick
Deng claimed that he had dealt with the defendant with four eyes and witnessed the defendant holding a white stick about 5 feet long; Deng then ordered his colleagues to pursue the demonstrators, and the defendant turned and fled in the direction of Admiralty.
Deng then warned the defendant to stop. The defendant suddenly turned around and waved at him with a truncheon. He immediately blocked it with a truncheon. The defendant turned and continued to escape and threw the stick to the ground.
Deng finally chased the defendant and subdued the defendant together with his colleagues.
The defense questioned Deng Wei's record of being attacked by the defendant
When the defense cross-examined Deng, it questioned the words Deng used in the journal, stating that Deng alleged that the defendant "attempted" and "attempted" to swing a stick at him while recording, and did not directly record the defendant assaulting him, questioning Deng's fabricated facts and alleging that The defendant did not hit Deng at all, nor did he drop the stick during the escape, Deng denied.
Another policeman claimed to pick up the white stick on the ground
Another policeman, Zhang Xiaofeng, who was involved in the arrest of the defendant that day, confessed that he pursued the defendant behind Deng that day and saw the defendant turned around and attacked Deng’s waist with a stick, and saw the defendant throw the stick on the ground. Zhang Sui assisted Deng in subduing the defendant. And immediately picked up the stick that fell on the ground.
However, the defense questioned that the defendant was guilty of arrogance, and that the white stick that was not the defendant's name would be found elsewhere. It was said that the defendant's weapon used to attack the sheriff.
Lawyers quoted newspapers as saying that police officers were accused of being unreliable
The lawyer also pointed out that Zhang did not mention the sheriff’s attack in the journal and the first statement, but in the supplementary statement seven months later, he suddenly joined the defendant’s assault on the police, thinking that Zhang’s record was not true. Questioning Zhang's memory is no longer reliable after seven months.
The defense also cited news reports in "Position News" and "Apple Daily", alleging that Zhang had been rated as dishonest and dishonest by Magistrates Huang Yayin and Cui Meixia in his testimony in two previous anti-revision demonstrations. Reliable, bluntly, Zhang was not an honest and reliable witness in this case; Zhang denied it.
