中山公園實驗室外抗議毀港醫療制度 警沒收音箱兼發「限聚令」告票
Without consultation, the government selected Sun Yat Sen Memorial Park Sports Centre as the site for a BGI laboratory to implement a territory-wide voluntary virus-testing programme, requiring private clinics to assist with sample collection. New Democracy Alliance members Roy Hoi Pong Tam and Fan Kwok-wai, along with Central and Western District Councillor Wing Chi (1968) Wong and others, protested outside the sports centre today. More than 30 police officers arrived, issuing tickets to the protesters for allegedly violating the gathering restriction, and at one point seizing a loudspeaker.

近4千人響應學術界聯署 促撤回解僱戴耀廷、邵家臻決定
Shiu Ka-chun, a Legislative Council member representing the social welfare sector and a lecturer in the Department of Social Work at Hong Kong Baptist University, and Dai Yaoting, an initiator of the Occupy Central movement and an associate professor in the Faculty of Law at the University of Hong Kong, were earlier respectively denied contract renewals by Baptist University and dismissed by the University of Hong Kong. An education-sector group launched a petition condemning the two universities and calling on them to withdraw the dismissal decisions. Sing Ming, an associate professor in the Division of Social Science at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, criticised the universities’ actions as violating procedural justice and denounced the Chief Executive’s role as ex officio chancellor of the universities as damaging Hong Kong’s academic freedom.

信和施壓 Chickeeduck 屯門市廣場民主女神像改放沙田新城市分店 新地即要求移除
Chickeeduck’s Tuen Mun Town Plaza outlet displayed a 51-centimetre-tall “Goddess of Democracy” statue in its window. Lai Yin Limited, a subsidiary of Sino Group and the landlord, filed a claim in the High Court on the 11th, alleging a breach of the tenancy agreement and seeking an order requiring the shop to remove the display, as well as damages for the breach. Chickeeduck said in a statement today that it had reached an out-of-court settlement with the landlord yesterday (the 13th), and would remove the statue and continue displaying it at its Sha Tin New Town Plaza outlet. The group’s chief executive Chow Siu Lung Herber accused the other party of “using capital to bully people” and said its handling of the matter was clearly unfair. Chow Siu Lung Herber reiterated that “walking alongside Hong Kong people” was a responsibility, and that the group would continue to support local cultural and artistic works.
童裝連鎖店 Chickeeduck 位於屯門巿廣場的分店，在櫥窗展示一座僅高 51 厘米的「民主女神像」，業主信和集團旗下的麗賢有限公司 11 日入稟高等法院指控他們違反租約，要求法庭頒令強制店舖移走擺設，並就違反租約賠償；Chickeeduck 今日發聲明，指昨日(13 日)已和業主庭外和解，將民主女神像移走，並改在沙田新城市廣場分店繼續展示。集團行政總裁周小龍質疑對方「以本傷人」，處理手法明顯不公平，重申和「香港人同行」是責任，日後會繼續支持本土文化藝術作品。

法援署稱警方武力合理 拒批出法援 荃灣中槍學生：明顯涉政治因素 感失望憤怒
On 1 October last year, clashes between police and members of the public broke out in multiple districts across Hong Kong. Form Five student Tsang Chi Kin Tsang Chi-kin was shot in the left chest with a live round by police on Tai Ho Road in Tsuen Wan and was once in critical condition. He has now basically recovered and earlier filed a personal injury claim over the shooting. Former Demosisto secretary-general Joshua Wong disclosed today (14th) that the Legal Aid Department had rejected his legal aid application. The reasons stated: “The Department considers that the force used by the police against you at the relevant time was reasonable” (see related report). Tsang Chi-kin responded through a third party that he was “disappointed and angry” that the department had rejected his application, questioning whether the decision was political and criticising the Legal Aid Department for reaching a verdict before hearing the case.
去年 10 月 1 日，全港多區爆發警民衝突，中五生「健仔」曾志健於荃灣大河道被警方開實彈射中左胸，情況一度危殆。他現時基本康復，早前就中槍一事入稟人身傷害索償，前香港眾志秘書長黃之鋒今日（14 日）披露法援署拒絕他的法援申請，理由書更列明「本署認為警方於相關時間向你所使用的武力是合理的」（詳見相關報道）；曾志健透過第三方回應，指對法援署不批准他的法援申請「感到失望和憤怒」，質疑署方是政治決定，批評法援署未審先判。

疑被私家車跟蹤兼撞到 許智峯轟警不作調查放走自稱記者疑人 警稱已錄口供斥媒體報道失實居心叵測
Several pro-democracy figures in Hong Kong said this month that they suspected they had been followed. At around 7pm today (14th), Democratic Party Legislative Council member Ted Hui suspected that he was being followed by a black private car. Hui subsequently called the police and confronted the driver and passengers of the private car on Forbes Street in Kennedy Town. He found that they had video and still cameras and other equipment, and was hit by the vehicle during the incident. After arriving at the scene and speaking with the occupants, police said they would not search the car or disclose the identities of the people inside, and allowed the private car to leave. Hui was pushed to the ground by police when he tried to block it from leaving. Ming Pao quoted sources as saying that the two people in the car claimed to be reporters from Ta Kung Pao.

【國安法】岑子杰、陳皓桓稱被跟蹤多月 陳皓桓：可能是國家機器
After the National Security Law took effect, many pro-democracy figures were arrested in mass operations. Former Demosisto deputy secretary-general Agnes Chow and former Studentlocalism convenor Tony Chung both discovered that they were being followed by unidentified people before their arrests. Former Hong Kong International Diplomacy Network spokesperson Sunny Cheung and Democratic Party lawmaker Ted Hui also said today that they suspected they had been followed. In a post that evening, Civil Human Rights Front deputy convenor Lester Shum said that while he and the Front’s convenor Jimmy Sham were attending a radio programme, someone photographed two suspicious-looking people nearby, who followed them by taxi after they left. He said they believed they could be facing the state apparatus and that they had been repeatedly followed for months.
自《國安法》生效後，多名民主派政治人物被大搜捕，前香港眾志副秘書長周庭，及前「學生動源」召集人鍾翰林均於被捕前發現被不明人士跟蹤，而前民間外交網絡發言人張崑陽及民主黨許智峯今日也指自己懷疑被跟蹤。民陣副召集人陳皓桓晚上亦發文指，自己與民陣召集人岑子杰出席電台節目時，有人拍攝到附近有 2 人形跡可疑，並以的士跟蹤他們離開，認為「面對既可能係國家機器」，稱已反覆被跟蹤多月。

港台受訪節目下架 羅冠聰：內容無觸犯國安法 冀港台對得住自己新聞專業
Former Demosistō chairman Nathan Law appeared on the RTHK special programme “The Battle over the Postponement of the 2020 Legislative Council Election”. The programme was broadcast late last month, but RTHK subsequently removed it from its website. Law responded on Facebook under the title “The duty of journalism is to monitor those in power, not blindly follow the regime”, saying he was surprised that RTHK had taken down the programme. He said the removal of a single interview raised countless questions: “Ultimately, should journalism be bound by the regime’s limits, or should it have its own mission to pursue truth and knowledge and monitor power?” He hoped RTHK’s senior management would carefully review the decision and live up to its own professional standards in journalism.
前香港眾志主席羅冠聰曾出席香港電台特備節目《2020立法會選舉延後之戰》，該節目於上月底播出，但及後港台將該節目從網頁下架。羅冠聰以「新聞專業的天職是監察權貴 並非盲從政權」為題在 Facebook 回應事件，表示對港台將節目下架感到驚訝。他認為，一次訪問下架引伸無數疑問，「歸根究底，是新聞應服膺於政權的框限，還是應該有自己對求真致知、監察權力的使命？」他期望，港台高層能慎重要檢視相關決定，對得住自己的新聞專業。

城大教授委託民調公司 YouGov 做問卷調查 被要求刪題目 稱涉違國安法
Tetsuro Kobayashi, an associate professor in the Department of Media and Communication at City University of Hong Kong, said on Twitter recently that he had earlier commissioned polling and market research company YouGov to conduct a questionnaire survey for a study, but YouGov asked him to delete some questions on the grounds that they might violate the Hong Kong national security law. Kobayashi also quoted YouGov’s Hong Kong team as saying that the decision was made after legal advice had been sought. Stand News contacted Kobayashi and YouGov about the matter yesterday, but neither had responded so far.
