六成鼓動婦工遊行留言 9人包辦 1人撐警常客 舉行前兩天湧入5社運專頁洗版
The Hong Kong Women Workers’ Association had obtained a police letter of no objection for a march originally scheduled for Sunday (the 5th) to campaign for women’s rights, but subsequently called it off. This newspaper found that at least nine social media accounts had, during the two days before the march, repeatedly posted comments encouraging people to take to the streets on the accounts of the Women Workers’ Association and social movement activists. The comments, including “pack Chater House to bursting” and “finally we can come out for a walk and have some fun,” accounted for about 65% of all comments. This newspaper found that two of the accounts had previously posted repeatedly on pro-establishment pages, including multiple Facebook pages such as “Support Secretary for Security Chris Tang” and “SaveHK”; one of the accounts was suspected of using another person’s profile photo.

兩名路透社記者身份被盜用作向維權者套料 記協:手法卑劣
Badiucao, a Chinese dissident cartoonist based in Australia, said on Saturday that people posing as “Reuters journalists” had allegedly contacted him to seek information about mainland Chinese rights activists and dissidents. Reuters confirmed that the identities of two journalists had been misused: Shanghai-based correspondent Brenda Goh and Hong Kong correspondent Jessie Pang. According to information published by Badiucao, the two “fake journalists” had contacted demonstrators in the mainland’s White Paper Movement, as well as Hong Kong people holding BNO passports who hoped to join the British military. The Hong Kong Journalists Association issued a statement condemning the deception, calling the tactics despicable and reminding the public to verify journalists’ identities and exercise caution when responding to sensitive questions.

【初選47人案】范功健承認做「蛇頭」 反指「這叫人力資源不是嗎?」
InMedia recently reported that a “queueing gang” in the 47-person primary election case had collected HK$800 in cash to occupy court queue numbers, and identified one of the “queueing organisers” as Fan Kung-kin, who was allegedly linked to the pro-establishment organisations S.P.C. Youth Entrepreneurship Association and S.P.C. International Young Talents Exchange Association. There has since been further development: the S.P.C. International Young Talents Exchange Association issued a statement distancing itself from Fan, saying that he had resigned from all positions a year and a half ago and that his personal actions were unrelated to the association. Fan wrote on his personal Facebook page that as the “boss” was willing to pay wages, “I arranged people to queue—isn’t this called human resources?” InMedia successfully contacted Fan by telephone. In his first response to the incident, he openly admitted to acting as a “queueing organiser”.

盧建民稱中間人施壓 「影攝食」專頁被迫刪除
Lo Kin-man, who was convicted of rioting during the Mong Kok riot and sentenced to seven years in prison, was released after completing his sentence on the 19th of last month. He said that about two weeks after his release, at the beginning of this month, an “intermediary” warned him that some posts on his personal page, “Ying Sip Sik”, might violate the law. “The intermediary told me that if you don’t delete those posts within three days, there would be danger.” However, because there were too many posts, he ultimately chose to delete the entire “Ying Sip Sik” page.

【初選47人案】記者通宵排隊獲800元 有人收走大疊籌號保管
The trial of the Primary Election 47 case opened last Monday, and “queueing syndicates” have appeared almost every day. After obtaining queue tickets, they leave, allegedly preventing ordinary members of the public from attending the hearings. Initium Media successfully contacted an organiser who advertised: “HK$800, and you don’t have to do anything.” The organiser required people to queue overnight for 12 hours until the court distributed tickets this morning, with the ticket handed over in exchange for payment. After the reporter applied for the “job”, the reporter was added to a WhatsApp group called “13/2 West Kowloon Elites Group”. Following several days of media reports on the incident, the organiser appeared wary and warned: “The police have been checking very strictly recently.” The organiser eventually arranged the exchange at Fu Cheung Estate, where the reporter saw someone taking away a large stack of queue tickets distributed that day for safekeeping.
