Today is the second anniversary of the conflict between the citizens of Admiralty on June 12, 2019 against the government's amendment to the Fugitive Offenders Ordinance. Some people called online to gather in Causeway Bay and Mong Kok, but as of the scheduled time of 7 pm, there were no large crowds.

The police dispatched about 1,500 police officers to guard. It can be seen from the afternoon that apart from closing the road on East Point Road in Causeway Bay, the police also adopted two strategies to prevent crowds from gathering. ; On the other hand, the ID cards of passers-by wearing black clothes or yellow masks were checked. Especially after nightfall, the interception and inspection operations were significantly increased.

After the scheduled 7 pm, there was no large-scale gathering.

The old man wearing a yellow mask was investigated: What's the point?

The police cordoned off East Point Road in Causeway Bay at 4 pm to prevent citizens from entering, and intercepted a number of people wearing black clothing nearby.

Mr. Ouyang, who was in his 70s and wearing a yellow mask, was intercepted by police officers in Causeway Bay. He claimed that the police officers stopped and searched on the grounds that he was staying near the cordon.

"True universal suffrage" is written on his mask, which means "Today is the line. Causeway Bay is the most prosperous weekend. Why don't you tell me what to do?"

In addition to Causeway Bay, there are also a large number of police officers stationed in Mong Kok. The police pulled up a cordon outside the Hollywood Commercial Centre in Mong Kok. They intercepted and searched two young men in black, and both were released.

At about 7:30 p.m., the police took two women into the cordoned area to check their ID cards on Great George Street, Causeway Bay. Many people nearby shouted "release" and booed.

Sources at the scene stated that a female inspector had visited the scene before and warned a woman not to inflame the emotions of the people at the scene, and then intercepted the two women for investigation and asked all reporters on the scene to wear press cards.

Among them, Ms. Liao said that she said outside the door of the famous shop, "You don't keep social distancing, what problem did I have in my trip?", and was intercepted by the police for inciting others' emotions.

She asked, "And there is no freedom of speech in Hong Kong? What did I do wrong to pull me?" The police recorded her ID and let her go.

Trade union and student organization Mong Kok Flyover Pendulum Street Station accused of violating the gathering order

The staff front of the Hospital Authority set up a street stop at the footbridge in Mong Kok. It was reported that 10 police officers were videotaped and monitored and warned that they might violate the gathering restriction order.

At 6 o'clock in the evening, the police asked them to disband immediately, and surrounded the members of the association and the trade union members with orange belts, indicating that they would vote against the union members for violation of the gathering order.

The Deputy Chairman of the Staff Front of the Hospital Authority, Luo Zhuoyiu, also pointed out that the people present at the time distributed leaflets 2 to 3 meters apart, and were still issued with a congregation restriction order. He believed that the government and the police used anti-epidemic regulations to suppress the freedom of street stations.

At 8 o'clock in the evening when the Student Union and the Lingnan University Student Union were at Baijie Station on Mong Kok Road Flyover, the police pulled up the orange belt and intercepted 4 men and women for investigation.

Guo Wei, chairman of the Federation of Students' Association, said that the police warned them twice that they had the opportunity to commit a gathering restriction order and also pointed out that the content of their broadcasts might have seditious elements, but he believed that they were only clarifying the truth.

Since there are only 4 of them, they have not been issued a ticket, so they will continue to put on the street.

About 20 police officers are stationed on Tianzhu.
