The civil human rights front was earlier accused by the police of violating the "Societies Ordinance", and the convener Chen Haohuan was sentenced to jail for the "10.1" demonstration the previous year, causing the FDC to suffer severe damage.

The temporary convener of the FDC, Chung Songhui, said in an inquiry from "Hong Kong 01" today (20th) that the police have classified FDC as an illegal organization. With administrative and internal factors, FDC will not apply to the police for the "July 1" parade this year. , Is the first time in 18 years.

Chung Songhui (middle) pointed out that the police have determined that the FDC is an unregistered organization, and it is no longer possible for FDC to apply to the police to organize any activities.

In September, the re-election of the convener group does not update the information, which is equivalent to withdrawing

Since 2003, the FDC, which advocates "peace, rationality, and non-violence", has held the "July 1" parade every year. However, the police refused to approve the no-objection notice last year, and the "July 1" parade was "broken" for the first time. .

Zhong Songhui accepted inquiries to explain why he did not bid for the "July 1" parade. He said that before Chen Haohuan was imprisoned, he was the only one left in the FDC secretariat. Now Chen has been in prison and the FDC has no secretariat. He described himself as a guard convener, so he held it. Large-scale events are no longer administratively feasible.

Chung Songhui pointed out that the police had identified the FDC as an unregistered organization. "It is correct to say that (the police) regard our (FDC) as an illegal organization." Therefore, FDC has no longer been able to apply to the police for holding any activities. "It is impossible to apply for anything." Therefore, due to political and internal factors, the FDC will not apply to the police for the "July 1" parade this year.

As for whether there will be another demonstration in the future, he said it depends on the future political environment.

Zhong Songhui, who claims to be the convener of the "guard", said that he has two tasks. One is to notify member organizations to update information in August. If member organizations do not update information before September, according to the articles of association, the relevant organizations will be deemed to have withdrawn from the civil society. The second is to notify all member groups to convene a general meeting in September to select the next convener and members of the secretariat.
