612 Fund Case︱Pray for Chen Rijun? Christian Carrie Lam says he has no personal feelings: he acts according to the law

The arrest of five trustees of the "612 Humanitarian Support Fund" has attracted international attention and public opinion. Many European and American countries have called for the release of the detainees, including the 90-year-old Emeritus Cardinal of the Catholic Diocese of Hong Kong, Cardinal Chen Rijun.

When asked this morning (17th) how she felt and whether she would pray for the other party, Chief Executive Carrie Lam, who is a Catholic, emphasized that this is "a matter of acting according to the law, and there is no personal emotion."

Carrie Lam pointed out that Hong Kong is a society governed by the rule of law, and that everyone, regardless of age, gender, occupation, background, or religion, will take action as long as they are suspected of breaking the law. The case will ultimately be handed over to the Department of Justice to independently decide whether to prosecute or not, and the Hong Kong judiciary, which enjoys independent judicial power, will make a decision.

Chen Rijun said he never thought about being a bishop. Message to young people: Be an upright person who understands justice. Relations become more complicated Chen Rijun thanks the media for their concern: everything is safe. The government says the arrest has nothing to do with occupation and religion. 4 trustees of "612 Fund" were released on bail Vatican worried about Chen Rijun's arrest 4 trusted trustees of "612 Fund" were released on bail and banned from leaving Hong Kong I hope everything is safe, Chen Rijun, Wu Aiyi, He Yunshi, Xu Baoqiang, and 4 trustees of the "612 Fund" were arrested
