A terrorist burning case occurred in Ma Yau Tong Village, Tseung Kwan O, revealing the difficulty of meeting and living together. Two 60-year-old men who lived in a squatter squatters suspected dog keeping and complaints about housing problems for a long time. Serious conflict broke out on the eve of the winter solstice. Chen (69 years old) was exposed to flammable liquid and burned to the ground. He suddenly became a fire with multiple burns on his head, hands and feet. After being sent to the hospital for rescue, his current condition is critical, and a dog in the house was also buried in the flames. The man was arrested for wounding.
The arrested man, whose surname is Sun (67 years old), was calm when he was arrested, and the black cloth head was taken away.
It is reported that Sun and Uncle Chen live together in a squatter in Mayoutang Village. Three dogs are kept in the house. At 8:37 pm yesterday (20th), the two people had a dispute over their housing and dog-raising issues. Out of control, he poured flammable liquid on Uncle Chen, and set fire to his body. Uncle Chen couldn't dodge like a fire man, and at the same time spread debris, the squatter was caught in flames, and firefighters arrived at the scene to finally put out the fire.
Uncle Chen, who suffered burns from the liquid, is in critical condition.
The reporter of "Hong Kong 01" returned to Mayoutang Village this morning to find out that the seal had not been lifted this morning and was guarded by police officers. Lands Department personnel had been present to inspect the location of the fire alarm.
Some neighbours said that the owner of the house was named "Chang Mao" and had lived in the squatter on the site for decades. He moved to live with another man earlier, and both of them reported unemployed.
A female security guard of a nearby housing estate revealed that she often saw the two old men coming and going in the case, but they were usually alone and rarely traveled with each other.
It is reported that there were three dogs in the squatter. Two of them were frightened and fled up the mountain during the fire. One of them was tied and burned alive. After that, the two dogs returned to the squatter on their own and lay down on the hillside depressed, as if waiting for their owner.
At noon, the squatter was unsealed, and the squatter was torch like ruins. Zinc-iron coke was piled aside. There was a charred dog near the brick wall with an iron chain on its neck. He was buried in the flames because he could not escape.
Two dogs appeared on the slope of Lingwu Mountain.

Concerned about relocation, suggest to apply for compassionate resettlement and relocation
Lin Wenchao, Assistant Director-General of the Hong Kong Association for the Prevention of Elder Abuse, said that Hong Kong has a small land and a large population. It is very common for two elders to rent a unit and live together. There are too many. Don’t say you dominate the toilet, then you can steal food in the kitchen.” He said that two elderly people who are already mentally ill should not be in the same unit, otherwise they will be trapped in animal fights and cause tragedies at any time. Elderly people with similar problems can contact social workers to apply for compassionate rehousing, and the problems related to independent housing can be solved easily.
