被指助「健仔」等4人潛逃 再多一女子被控妨礙司法公正 還押至5月再訊
Four young people involved in anti-extradition bill cases, including Tsang Chi-kin, known as “Tsang Chi Kin”, who was shot in Tsuen Wan, were arrested in Hong Kong while on the run in July 2022. More than two and a half years after the incident, following the National Security Department’s charging of a man last Saturday with allegedly helping the four flee (see related report), another 26-year-old woman was accused of assisting their escape on Monday (10th) and brought before the Eastern Magistrates’ Court for the first time.
The woman was charged with intending to pervert the course of justice. Wearing a green long-sleeved sweatshirt, with her hair tied in a ponytail and a face mask on, she repeatedly looked towards the public gallery as the charge was read. She was not required to enter a plea. Chief Magistrate Don Man Lung So adjourned the case until May 6 pending police investigations into financial transactions, data on computers and other matters. The defendant applied for bail, which the prosecution opposed, but the court ultimately refused bail and ordered her remanded.

柴灣興民邨樓梯發現子彈案 兩男認罪囚62月、56月 官：背後肯定有邪惡意圖
Police lay in wait in a staircase at Hing Man Estate, Chai Wan, in September 2022 and arrested two men suspected of collecting or handing over bullets. The two men pleaded guilty last month to seven charges, including possessing firearm components without a licence. On Friday (the 7th), they were sentenced at the High Court to 5 years and 2 months’ imprisonment and 4 years and 8 months’ imprisonment respectively.
Judge Amanda Jane Woodcock said all the items involved had come from a man who held “extreme political views”, and that there was definitely evil intent behind them. Fortunately, the intent had not been carried out; had the bullets fallen into the hands of dangerous people, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
The judge criticised the first defendant for attempting to distance himself from his relationship with the man and minimise his personal criminal liability. However, the court granted him a 43% reduction in his sentence after taking into account his assistance in the arrest of the second defendant. The second defendant possessed the items involved for payment and received the full one-third reduction in sentence for pleading guilty at an early stage.
警方 2022 年 9 月埋伏柴灣興民邨梯間，拘捕兩名男子懷疑交收或提取子彈。二人上月承認「無牌管有槍械組件」等 7 罪，周五（7 日）在高等法院分別被判囚 5 年 2 個月及 4 月 8 個月。
法官胡雅文指，涉案物品皆來自一名「持極端政見」的男子，背後肯定有邪惡意圖，幸未有兌現，若子彈落入危險分子手中，後果不堪設想。
法官斥首被告試圖抽離他和該男子的關係、淡化個人刑責，惟考慮他協助拘捕次被告，准予 43% 刑期扣減。次被告則為了報酬而管有涉案物品，因適時認罪獲全數三分一刑期扣減。

反恐第二案｜辯方指警員塞被告頭部入馬桶沖水 強迫錄口供 O記警員否認
Explosives were found at Caritas Medical Centre and in a Lo Wu MTR train carriage in early 2020. The Telegram channel “九十二籤” 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, and the trial entered its 48th day at the High Court on Friday (7th).
The defence said that after the third defendant Tsz Lok Ng was arrested, police officers took him to an accessible toilet outside the unit involved in the case, shoved Ng’s head into the toilet and repeatedly flushed it, forcing him to give a cautioned statement. The defence also alleged that, to prevent the incident from being exposed, police only obtained as evidence CCTV footage from before Ng was taken to the toilet. The officer denied all the allegations in court, reiterating that the cautioned statement was recorded in front of a long table inside the unit.
The defence questioned how Ng could have been made to give a statement in the unit when forensic officers had not yet arrived, as this could have interfered with evidence on the table and left fingerprints and DNA. It also said other defendants in the same case were present, making it impossible to arrange for Ng to give his statement there. The officer agreed that the persons being investigated should have been kept separate, but denied that Ng had actually given his statement in the accessible toilet. The trial will continue next Monday.
2020 年初，明愛醫院、羅湖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，周五（7 日）於高等法院踏入第 48 天審訊。
辯方指第三被告吳子樂被捕後，遭警員帶到涉案單位外的一個殘廁，將吳的頭塞入馬桶內不斷沖水，強迫他錄警誡口供；又指警方為免事件被揭發，只拿取吳被帶到殘廁前的閉路電視作證。警員庭上一概否認，重申是在單位內的長枱前錄警誡口供。
辯方質疑，當時鑑證科警員未到場，留在單位錄口供恐干擾枱上的證物，留下指模和 DNA，加上同案被告亦在場，不可能安排吳在單位錄口供。警員同意應安排分開受查，但否認吳實際上在殘廁錄口供。審訊下周一續。

反恐第二案｜第三被告錄影會面提及被「審問」 O記警員即要求澄清是否自願作答
In early 2020, explosives were found at Caritas Medical Centre and in a Lo Wu MTR train carriage. The Telegram channel “92 Divination Sticks” later claimed responsibility. Seven people were charged with offences under the Anti-terrorism Ordinance, while the remaining person was charged with “attempting to manufacture explosives”. All eight pleaded not guilty, and the trial at the High Court entered its 47th day on Thursday (6th).
The court played footage of a video interview with the third defendant Tsz Lok Ng. Wu said the fourth defendant had proposed making a bomb to “blow up that police car”, but later, because the explosives were not powerful enough, changed the plan to setting off smoke bombs in a hospital to force medical staff to go on strike. Wu also confirmed that the explosives were not very powerful, saying, “We absolutely did not want to hurt anyone”; Wu additionally admitted helping to transport raw materials.
During the interview, Wu also mentioned forgetting some details because of “that interrogation that went on too long”. An O Bureau officer immediately said, “Then don’t say we were interrogating you,” stressing that Wu could answer voluntarily: “The police will not take any measures to coerce or induce you, or cause you to answer.” Wu agreed and clarified that he had answered voluntarily, saying he had misunderstood the meaning of “interrogation”. The trial continues on Friday.

庭上播放第三被告吳子樂的錄影會面片段，吳供稱第四被告提議製炸彈「炸爛架警車」，後來因炸藥威力不足，改為在醫院放煙霧彈迫使醫護人員罷工，並確認過威力不大，「我哋係完全唔想傷害任何人」；吳另承認有份搬運原材料。
吳在會面又提及，因為「經過太長嘅嗰個審問」而忘記部分事情，O 記警員即稱「咁又唔好講我哋係審問」，強調可自願作答，「我哋警方係唔會有任何嘅措施，去威迫利誘或者去導致你去答」，吳同意並澄清是自願作答，指自己誤解「審問」的意思。審訊周五續。

《頭條新聞》被指辱警違守則案 上訴庭拒批通訊局上訴許可 局方須付18萬元訟費
In 2020, the Communications Authority ruled that some episodes of RTHK’s ‘Headliner’ had insulted the police. The Hong Kong Journalists Association and an RTHK staff union sought a judicial review of the decision and partially succeeded in 2021. The Communications Authority, the RTHK staff union and the journalists’ association each appealed the parts of the judgment against them. The Court of Appeal earlier unanimously dismissed the Communications Authority’s appeal, while allowing the appeals by the union and the journalists’ association, and ordered the Communications Authority’s warning to be quashed.
Disagreeing with the decision, the Communications Authority applied to the Court of Appeal for leave to appeal to the Court of Final Appeal. In a judgment issued on Thursday (the 6th), the Court of Appeal dismissed the application, saying one of the grounds of appeal amounted merely to an “academic discussion” and the other two did not involve points of law of great and general importance. The Communications Authority was ordered to pay HK$180,000 in costs.
通訊事務管理局 2020 年裁定港台《頭條新聞》有集數辱警，記協與港台工會提司法覆核挑戰決定，2021 年獲判部分勝訴。通訊局、港台工會與記協各就敗訴部分提上訴。上訴庭早前一致駁回通訊局上訴，工會、記協則上訴得直，上訴庭下令撤銷通訊局的警告。
通訊局不服決定，向上訴庭申請上訴至終審法院許可，上訴庭周四（6 日）頒判詞駁回申請，指其中一項上訴理據流於「學術討論」，另外兩項不涉重大而廣泛重要性的法律論點，通訊局須付 18 萬元訟費。

反修例首名被指示威者暴動上訴得直 11.18佐敦被捕 上訴庭批原審定罪不穩妥
Police surrounded Polytechnic University on 18 November 2019, and many people were arrested in Jordan. Two students convicted of rioting and sentenced to 50 and 56 months’ imprisonment respectively, dissatisfied with their convictions and sentences, applied for leave to appeal. After hearing the applications, the Court of Appeal handed down its judgment on Wednesday (the 5th), ruling that one applicant had succeeded and quashing the conviction and setting aside the sentence.
According to The Witness’s tally, he was the first defendant in an anti-extradition bill case described as a protester to succeed in an appeal against a riot conviction. The Court of Appeal said the testimony of the police officer who gave evidence at trial and the footage admitted into evidence “appeared to contain irreconcilable fundamental differences”, but the trial judge, District Court Judge Lin Kam-hung, had not addressed this doubt. His riot conviction was therefore unsafe. The court also said the trial had overlooked the prosecution’s submission that another charge involving possession of a hammer should not be made out, but nevertheless convicted the defendant; this was “a clear error”.
The application by another defendant who said he was a first aider was dismissed, and the conviction was upheld. The Court of Appeal questioned the applicant’s arguments, including the claim that people providing humanitarian medical aid at a riot scene without intending to participate in the riot should be protected by a common-law immunity, saying they were “self-contradictory”.
2019 年 11 月 18 日警方圍堵理工大學，多人在佐敦被捕。兩名暴動罪成、判囚 50 及 56 個月的學生不服定罪和刑罰，提出上訴許可申請，上訴庭經聆訊後周三（5 日）頒下判詞，裁定當中一名申請人得直，撤銷定罪並擱置刑罰。
據《法庭線》統計，他為反修例案中，首名被指為示威者而就暴動罪上訴得直的被告。上訴庭指，原審時作供的警員，口供和呈堂片段「似乎存有不能磨合的根本差異」，惟原審、區院法官練錦鴻沒處理此疑點，故其暴動定罪不穩妥；又指原審亦忽略控方提出另一涉管有槌的控罪不應成立，仍裁定被告罪成，做法「是明顯錯誤的」。
另一報稱急救員的被告，申請被駁回，維持定罪。上訴庭質疑申請方主張在暴動現場提供人道醫療救護者，是沒意圖參與暴動，應受普通法的免責保護等說法是「自相矛盾」。

反恐第二案｜警員否認為插贓遮CCTV鏡頭 指相信有直播功能恐妨礙行動
In early 2020, explosives were found at Caritas Medical Centre and in an MTR train carriage at Lo Wu. The Telegram channel “九十二籤” subsequently claimed responsibility. Seven people were charged with offences under the anti-terrorism law, while the remaining person was charged with “attempting to manufacture explosives”. All eight pleaded not guilty, and the trial at the High Court entered its 46th day on Wednesday (the 5th).
A Criminal Intelligence Bureau (CIB) officer confirmed yesterday that members of the team covered a CCTV camera outside a unit at Wang Cheong Fang during an operation. The defence suggested this was to conceal the planting of evidence and interfere with evidence. The officer denied this, explaining that he believed the camera was an “IP cam” with a live-streaming function that could “pose a threat” to the police operation and alert people inside the unit to destroy evidence, which was why the officers covered it.
The defence said female defendant Cheung Cheuk-ki had a male officer kneel on the inner side of her thigh. The two uniformed officers who subdued Cheung denied this, reiterating that they were “helping Cheung up” at the time, and said she had struggled and shaken off an officer’s hand. The trial continues on Thursday.

對於刑事情報科（CIB）警員昨確認，有隊員在行動時遮蓋宏創方單位外閉路電視的鏡頭，辯方質疑是為掩飾插贓、干擾證據；警員否認並解釋，他相信該鏡頭是有網絡直播功能的「IP cam」，恐對警方行動「構成威脅」，驚動單位內的人銷毀證據，故隊員才遮擋鏡頭。
辯方指，女被告張琸淇曾遭男警跪著大腿內側；兩名制服張的警員否認，重申當時是「扶起」張，又指她曾掙扎，甩開警員的手。審訊周四續。

反恐第二案｜CCTV片段顯示有人遮鏡頭 警員提出或涉戰術運用 官擱置提問
In early 2020, explosives were found at Caritas Medical Centre and in a Lo Wu MTR train carriage. The Telegram channel “Ninety-Two Lots” later claimed responsibility. Seven people were charged with offences under the Anti-Terrorism Ordinance, while the remaining person was charged with “attempting to manufacture explosives”. All eight pleaded not guilty, and the trial at the High Court entered its 45th day on Tuesday (4th).
A Criminal Intelligence Bureau (CIB) police officer testified that he controlled the movements of the persons under investigation at a unit in Wang Cheong Factory Building. Under questioning by the defence, he confirmed that he was wearing a helmet and protective equipment at the time. The defence played CCTV footage showing a person wearing a helmet, after which most of the screen became black. The officer confirmed that the helmeted person had used an object to cover the camera, and said he believed that person was one of his team members.
The judge asked why this had been done. The officer responded, “Does this count as a question involving tactics?” The prosecution then asked for the jury to leave. The judge subsequently said that the witness’s answer might involve the use of tactics, and therefore that part had to be deferred temporarily. The case will continue on Wednesday.
2020 年初，明愛醫院、羅湖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（4 日）於高院踏入第 45 天審訊。
刑事情報科（CIB）警員供述到宏創方單位控制受查人的行動，他在辯方盤問下確認當時戴上頭盔及保護裝備。辯方播放閉路電視片段，顯示有戴上頭盔的人，其後畫面大部分呈黑色。警員確認戴頭盔的人用物品遮掩鏡頭，指相信該人為其隊員。
法官追問為何有此動作，警員提出「呢個算唔算牽涉戰術嘅問題？」控方隨即要求陪審團避席。法官其後稱，證人的答案可能涉及戰術運用，故需暫時擱置該部分。案件周三續。

反恐第二案｜首被告手機訊息討論爆炸後現場播歌 有人錄音稱「一定要殺一隻狗」
In early 2020, explosives were found at Caritas Medical Centre and in a Lo Wu MTR carriage. The Telegram channel “九十二籤” subsequently claimed responsibility. Seven people were charged with offences under the Anti-terrorism Ordinance, while the remaining person was charged with “attempting to manufacture explosives”. All eight pleaded not guilty, and the trial entered its 44th day at the High Court on Monday (the 3rd).
The prosecution recalled an O Division police officer involved in the investigation and showed the court Telegram and WhatsApp messages extracted from first defendant Ho Cheuk Wai’s phone. The messages showed that Telegram accounts alleged to belong to the defendants discussed playing songs over loudspeakers at the scene after the explosions. Someone also sent the personal details of three police officers.
The prosecution also played a WhatsApp voice message sent by an unidentified person named “Uncle Fishing Boy”, reminding the phone owner to be careful and saying: “Must kill a dog; they are really fucking cruel to us Hong Kong people.” The trial resumes on Tuesday.
