警據《國安法》申手令查新聞材料 黎智英司法覆核敗訴再提上訴
In July 2022, police obtained a new search warrant under the implementation rules of the National Security Law, allowing them to search more than 8,000 items of “journalistic material” obtained from Jimmy Lai’s mobile phone in 2020. Lai challenged the warrant by judicial review, but his challenge was dismissed on August 30. The judge granted a stay order, barring police from unlocking the materials before September 6 pending Lai’s application for leave to appeal and a stay of execution of the warrant.
The latest Judiciary records show that Lai filed an appeal the day after losing the case, on August 31. The hearing is scheduled for September 28 and is expected to last 180 minutes.

司法機構資料最新顯示,黎在敗訴翌日即 8 月 31 日已提出上訴,案件排期 9 月 28 日聆訊,預計需時 180 分鐘。

中大撒粉案|一中大生認非法集結判囚 6 周
In January last year, the Chinese University of Hong Kong set up a checkpoint at the campus entrance to check people entering the campus. About 10 people dressed in black called on students at University Station not to show their student identity cards, then knocked down barriers and threw flour at security guards. Four CUHK students, including former president of the CU Student Union Owen Au Cheuk-hei, were charged with unlawful assembly.
One of them pleaded guilty last month at Sha Tin Magistrates’ Courts. Acting Chief Magistrate Chi Wai (1965) Cheung sentenced the defendant to six weeks’ imprisonment today (the 2nd). The magistrate said that although the incident was brief and the level of violence was low, someone was injured in the case, making a suspended sentence unsuitable. Immediate imprisonment was the only option.

其中一人上月於沙田裁判法院認罪,署理主任裁判官張志偉今(2 日)判被告監禁 6 星期。裁判官指,案件歷時短、暴力程度低,但案中有人受傷,不適合判處緩刑,即時監禁是唯一選擇。

暴動罪成 24 歲男稱任急救員 申上訴許可被駁回 上訴庭:救人不等如中立
The applicant argued that the trial court had erred in finding that the only reasonable inference was that the young man had participated in the riot. The Court of Appeal rejected the argument, holding that serving as a first-aider during a riot was not a valid defence. “Saving lives does not mean neutrality.” Even if he identified himself as a first-aider, as long as his conduct met the elements of the offence of rioting, he had participated in the riot. The court ruled that the trial court had made no error.
申請方質疑,原審錯誤裁定青年參與暴動是唯一合理推論。上訴庭反駁,在暴動中擔任急救員並非有效辯護理由,「救人不等如中立」,即使他自我定位為急救員,但只要其行為符合暴動罪元素,則屬參與暴動,裁定原審並無犯錯。
