The Peak Religious Procession Only One Requiring Participants to Wear Identification Markers; Participants Say They Have No Objection
山頂宗教巡遊唯一須貼標記 參與者稱沒意見
Today (April 7) is Good Friday. There were seven processions in Hong Kong today organised by religious groups that had been issued letters of no objection by the police. St Andrew’s Church held an Easter Walk hiking activity at The Peak in the afternoon; it was the only one in which the police required participants to wear identification markers, with about 50 people taking part. Unlike the Good Friday procession in Kwai Chung in the morning, where police officers maintained security along the route, officers in this case only maintained order at the starting point. Some participants said they were unaware that the activity had applied for a letter of no objection and did not know about the requirements listed by police. They said they had no objection to having to wear the markers.
今日（4月7日）為耶穌受難節，本港今日共有7場由宗教團體舉辦、並獲警方發不反對通知書的巡遊。其中聖安德烈堂下午在山頂舉辦復活節「Easter Walk」的行山活動是唯一被警方要求遊行人士須貼上識別標記，約有50人參與。惟有別於上午的葵涌受難節遊行有警員沿途戒備，今次警員只在起點維持秩序。有參與者表示，不清楚活動有申請不反對通知書，亦不知警方所列要求，對於須貼上標記沒有意見。
