Anti-terrorism case 2 | Third defendant says he was assaulted and forced to confess; prosecution: confession only implicated others — “If they wanted to frame him, would they frame him too?”

反恐第二案|第三被告指遭施暴逼供 控方:供詞只指證他人「要屈,係咪屈埋佢?」

Explosives were found in early 2020 at Caritas Medical Centre and in an MTR train at Lo Wu station. The Telegram channel “Ninety-Two Lots” later claimed responsibility. Seven people were charged with offences under the Anti-Terrorism Ordinance, while one remaining person was charged with “attempting to manufacture explosives”. All eight pleaded not guilty. The trial at the High Court entered its 132nd day on Thursday (9th), with the prosecution continuing its closing submissions. The defence alleged that third defendant Tsz Lok Ng had his head forced into a toilet and flushed by police officers to pressure him into confessing to involvement in the case. The prosecution countered that Wu’s confession implicated co-defendants including “Ng Fei” and “Shan Gai” in making explosives, while he said he knew nothing about details of the case. It questioned why police would have allowed Wu to distance himself from responsibility if they wanted to fabricate a case against him: “If they wanted to frame him, would they frame him too?” The prosecution also questioned the defence’s claim that police had used force to obtain the confession. It said Wu had no injuries on his face in the video-recorded interview footage and did not seek medical treatment afterwards, questioning how police could have restrained and assaulted him while ensuring that he was not injured. “This is simply inconceivable,” it said. The trial will continue on Friday.

2020 年初,明愛醫院、羅湖站港鐵車廂被發現有爆炸品,Telegram 頻道「九十二籤」事後承認責任。7 人被控《反恐條例》罪名,餘下 1 人被控以「企圖製造炸藥」罪。8 人不認罪,周四(9 日)於高院踏入第 132 天審訊。控方繼續結案陳詞。 辯方指稱,第三被告吳子樂遭警員將頭塞入馬桶沖水,威迫他招認與案有關。控方反駁指,吳的招認供詞指證「五飛」、「山雞」等同案被告製作炸藥,對案中細節又表示不知情,質疑警方若要誣捏吳,不可能容許他撇清責任,「若然要屈,係咪要屈埋佢呢?」 控方又質疑,辯方稱警員用武力逼供,但吳在錄影會面片段中,臉上無傷痕,事後亦沒有就醫,質疑警方不可能在控制吳及施襲的同時,確保他不會受傷,「呢個簡直係匪夷所思」。審訊周五續。

Grandpa Chan acquitted over displaying a banner at Lion Rock without a permit; Department of Justice abandons review six months later

被控沒許可證獅子山展示條幅 馬屎埔陳伯獲裁無罪 律政司半年後通知放棄覆核

On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival in 2023, Ki Kau Chan, aged over 70, climbed Lion Rock and displayed the words “With brows furrowed, I coldly face a thousand accusing fingers; bowing my head, I willingly serve as an obedient child”, handwritten by himself and attributed to Lu Xun. He was subsequently arrested. Chan denied the charge of displaying a banner in a country park without a permit. After a trial, he was acquitted and awarded costs last December. The Department of Justice had originally applied for the magistrate to review the verdict and the costs order. However, Ki Kau Chan said on social media last week that he had been notified by the Department of Justice that it was abandoning the review. The Department of Justice told The Witness that it does not comment on individual cases. Ki Kau Chan told The Witness that “these two years have really been very hard”, saying that he had sought medical treatment because of the pressure. He said, “I went through all that hardship to climb Lion Rock to admire the moon, put up the couplet and take photos as a memento, but even that was not allowed, and I still had to lose my freedom.” He described getting through the ordeal as “a blessing.”

2023 年中秋前夕,70 多歲的「馬屎埔陳伯」陳基裘登上獅子山,展示自己手寫、出自魯迅的「橫眉冷對千夫指 俯首甘為孺子牛」字句,事後被捕。陳否認「沒有許可證下於郊野公園內展示條幅罪」,經審訊後,於去年 12 月獲裁定無罪兼獲判訟費。 律政司原本提出,要求裁判官覆核裁決及訟費命令,但陳基裘上周在社交媒體發布消息,指獲律政司通知放棄覆核。律政司回覆《法庭線》指,不評論個別案件。 陳基裘回覆《法庭線》稱,此兩年「真係好苦呀」,指因壓力大需要求醫。他稱「我咁辛苦上獅子山賞月,去留對聯去影相留念,都唔得,都要失去自由」,形容捱過難關屬「萬幸」。

Second terrorism case | Prosecution closes case: Sixth defendant must have known about Tseung Kwan O plot; police covering camera was not “planting evidence” to frame third defendant

反恐第二案|控方結案:第六被告必然知將軍澳案 警遮鏡頭非「插贓」第三被告

In early 2020, explosives were found at Caritas Medical Centre and in an MTR train carriage at Lo Wu Station. The Telegram channel “Ninety-Two Lots” later claimed responsibility. Seven people were charged with offences under the Anti-terrorism Ordinance, while one remaining defendant was charged with “attempting to manufacture explosives”. All eight pleaded not guilty. The trial at the High Court entered its 131st day on Tuesday (8th), as the prosecution continued its closing submissions. In submissions concerning the sixth defendant Cheung Cheuk-ki, the prosecution said that after she knew the third defendant Tsz Lok Ng would hand a bomb involved in the Lo Wu Station explosion to another group for placement, she did not stop Tsz Lok Ng from continuing to participate. She also personally joined the Telegram group for the Tseung Kwan O explosion and attended meetings in Sai Wan and at Garden Hill. The only inference was that she had participated in the bombing plot, the prosecution said. It added that Cheung Cheuk-ki used “stand-by” to describe her and Tsz Lok Ng staying in Room 503 at The Octagon on the eve of the Tseung Kwan O explosion, and that she must have known their actions were connected to an operation, namely the Tseung Kwan O explosion. The prosecution also made submissions on the case against the third defendant Tsz Lok Ng. In response to the defence’s claim that police officers deliberately obscured the closed-circuit television cameras before entering Room 503 in order to move explosives into the unit and “plant evidence” to frame Tsz Lok Ng, the prosecution said the defence did not dispute the chain of custody of exhibits from another unit involved in the case, Room 1008. It said: “If they wanted to frame someone, they would not frame only one unit.”

2020 年初,明愛醫院、羅湖站港鐵車廂被發現有爆炸品,Telegram 頻道「九十二籤」事後承認責任。7 人被控《反恐條例》罪名,餘下 1 人被控以「企圖製造炸藥」罪。8 人不認罪,周二(8 日)於高院踏入第 131 天審訊。控方繼續結案陳詞。 控方就第六被告張琸淇陳詞指,張知悉第三被告吳子樂在羅湖站爆炸案中,會將炸彈交給另一隊人放置後,並無阻止吳繼續參與,更親身加入將軍澳爆炸案 TG 群組,並前往西環、嘉頓山開會,唯一推論是她有參與爆炸案。控方又指,張以「stand-by」形容她與吳於將軍澳爆炸案前夕,逗留在宏創方 503 室的行為,必然知道其行為與一項行動,即將軍澳爆炸案有關。 控方另就第三被告吳子樂的案情陳詞。對於吳一方指,警員在進入 503 室前,故意遮蔽閉路電視鏡頭,是將爆炸品搬入單位「插贓嫁禍」吳,控方反駁指,辯方並無爭議另一涉案單位(即 1008 室)的證物連鎖性,稱「如果要屈都唔淨係屈一個單位」。

Second anti-terrorism case|Prosecution closes case: Defendants planned indiscriminate harm; sixth defendant’s involvement was lower but not non-existent

反恐第二案|控方結案:被告計劃無差別傷害 第六被告參與度較低但不等於沒參與

In early 2020, explosives were found at Caritas Medical Centre and in an MTR train carriage at Lo Wu Station. The Telegram channel “Ninety-Two Lots” subsequently claimed responsibility. Seven people were charged with offences under the Anti-terrorism Ordinance, while one remaining defendant was charged with “attempting to manufacture explosives”. All eight pleaded not guilty. The trial entered its 130th day at the High Court on Monday (the 7th), when the prosecution began its closing submissions. The prosecution said there was “nothing in black and white stating where the explosives were to be placed”, but that the existence of an agreement could be proved through Telegram messages. It also said that, in the Tseung Kwan O car park bombing case, the defendants intended to place a tombstone-shaped bomb containing 20 kilograms of low-performance explosives, “to cause indiscriminate harm to people attending the memorial rites for Chow Tsz-lok”. Regarding the sixth defendant Cheung Cheuk-ki, the prosecution said she had a university degree and worked as a registration officer with the Immigration Department. It argued that her remaining in the Telegram group was not childish play or idle curiosity, but reflected a desire to participate in the bombing plot. The prosecution also noted that she had disclosed the division of labour among members to police, saying her knowledge was “definitely not insignificant” and that her “role may have been lower, but that does not mean she did not participate”. The case continues on Tuesday.

2020 年初,明愛醫院、羅湖站港鐵車廂被發現有爆炸品,Telegram 頻道「九十二籤」事後承認責任。7 人被控《反恐條例》罪名,餘下 1 人被控以「企圖製造炸藥」罪。8 人不認罪,周一(7 日)於高院踏入第 130 天審訊。控方開始結案陳詞。 控方指,本案「冇白紙黑字寫去邊度放爆炸品」,但可以根據 TG 訊息證明協議存在。控方又指,在將軍澳停車場爆炸案,被告打算放置一個含 20 公斤低性能炸藥的墓碑型炸彈,「無差別對到場祭祀周梓樂嘅人造成傷害」。 針對第六被告張琸淇,控方指她有大學學位、任職入境處登記主任,認為她留在 TG 群組非小朋友貪玩、八卦,而是想參與爆炸案。加上她曾向警方透露成員分工,「認知絕對唔少」、「(角色)可能較低,但唔係冇參與過」。案件周二續。

Lingnan student Lai Cheuk-yin disqualified from university elections; High Court rejects judicial review, accepts publicity limits ensure fairness

嶺大學生賴卓賢參選校董會等被DQ 高院駁回司法覆核 接納校方指限宣傳可保公平

Lai Cheuk-yin, external vice-president of the Lingnan University Students’ Union, was disqualified by the university’s election officer last November from standing in elections for the Council, Court and Senate after allegedly campaigning through “non-official channels”. He applied for judicial review, seeking to overturn the election officer’s decision and the election results. In a judgment handed down on Friday (the 4th), High Court judge Ko Ho-man dismissed his application and ordered Lai to pay the costs. Lai’s side argued that the election officer had exceeded his powers, misunderstood the relevant provisions and acted improperly in disqualifying him without giving him an opportunity to respond. The judgment said university elections differed from elections for public office and did not require publicity campaigns to be conducted in a complex or extensive manner. It also accepted Lingnan’s argument that restricting the forms of publicity could ensure that candidates received the same level of exposure and safeguard the fairness of the election. The judge said allowing candidates to publicise their campaigns only through the same methods was entirely fair, and ruled that the election officer had neither exceeded his powers nor acted improperly in procedural terms. Lai Cheuk-yin told The Witness that he was disappointed by the judgment but would respect it. Lingnan University said it welcomed the outcome.

嶺南大學學生會外務副會長賴卓賢,去年 11 月被指以「非官方渠道」宣傳,遭校方選舉主任 DQ 校董會、諮議會、教務會的參選人資格。他入稟申請司法覆核,要求推翻選舉主任的決定及選舉結果。高院法官高浩文周五(4 日)頒判詞,駁回其申請,賴兼須付訟費。 賴一方質疑,選舉主任越權、誤解條文內容,DQ 他時亦涉程序不當,沒有給予機會讓他抗辯。 判詞指,大學校內的選舉與公職的選舉不同,毋須複雜及廣泛地進行宣傳活動,亦接納嶺大一方指,限制宣傳方式可確保候選人獲相同曝光程度,確保選舉公平。官又指,候選人只能使用相同方式宣傳是完全公平的做法,裁定選舉主任沒越權,亦不涉程序不當。 賴卓賢回覆《法庭線》稱,對法庭判決感到失望,但會尊重。嶺大表示,歡迎裁決結果。

Online “stab the small intestine” post after July 1 police-stabbing case: Man jailed 24 months for inciting wounding; leave to appeal sentence refused

七一刺警案後網上提「插小腸」 男子煽惑傷人判囚24月 申刑期上訴許可失敗

On the night of the 1 July 2021 Causeway Bay police stabbing incident, a 23-year-old man was accused of posting comments on the LIHKG online forum including, “stab his fucking father and mother to death” and “next time you should stab the middle of the body, around the small intestine”. He denied one count of inciting others to wound with intent, but was convicted after trial and sentenced to 24 months’ imprisonment. He appealed against the sentence, and the Court of Appeal heard his application for leave to appeal on Friday (4th). Counsel for the applicant, barrister Shek Shu-ming, argued that the trial judge had referred to the case involving University of Hong Kong students who thanked Leung Kin-fai and adopted the same sentencing starting point. However, he submitted that the nature and degree of seriousness of the present case were different. The defendant had not acted with premeditation and had not made the comments through a students’ union platform, leaving room for a reduced sentence. Court of Appeal judge Justice Anthea Pang Po-kam referred to the comments in question and asked counsel, “Isn’t there seriousness in that?” She held that the proposed grounds were not reasonably arguable and dismissed the application on the same day. Written reasons for the decision will be handed down within three months.

2021 年銅鑼灣七一刺警案當晚,23 歲男子被指在「連登」發布「插撚死佢老豆老母」、「下次應該插身體中間小腸嘅部位」等留言,否認「煽惑他人有意圖而傷人」罪,受審罪成,被判囚 24 個月。他不服判罰,上訴庭周五(4 日)處理其上訴許可申請。 申請方代表、大狀石書銘爭議,原審法官參考港大生致謝梁健輝一案,採納相同的量刑起點,惟本案與該案性質、程度有別,被告沒預謀,亦非使用學生會的平台發言,故有空間減刑。 上訴庭法官潘敏琦引涉案留言,反問申請方「有冇嚴重性喺度呀?」指理據無合理可爭辯之處,即日駁回,將在 3 個月頒判詞交代理由。
