Former Legislative Council member Lam Cheuk-ting and six other “non-white-shirted people” are charged with rioting at Yuen Long Station on 21 July 2019. The 10th day of their trial began at the District Court on Monday (30). The prosecution called a witness granted anonymity and raised concerns that CCTV footage of Yuen Long Station recently released by The Collective could expose the witness’s identity if the defence played the footage and members of the public compared it with other information. The prosecution also said the media outlet had a large amount of “CCTV footage believed to be from this case”, adding: “The inference is that [it] came from our transfer bundle and was then uploaded by someone.” Judge Chan Kwong-chi expressed concern that the footage had been made public one week before the trial began, questioning whether this involved interference with the administration of justice or a breach of professional conduct. He said, “The court is extremely concerned and needs to investigate.” Anonymous civilian witness A began giving evidence. She said that on the night in question, she passed Fung Yau North Street and saw more than 50 people gathered near a park, most of them wearing white shirts. She also heard them say that “someone would come into Yuen Long”. She stayed because she was “curious”, and later arrived at Yuen Long Station, where she “felt that the people inside the gates were provoking and picking a fight” and that “the people outside did not really want to go in”. However, they “finally couldn’t stand it and jumped over the railings to hit them”. The case will continue on Tuesday, when she will be cross-examined by the defence.
