Jimmy Lai’s children: Father’s health deteriorating in prison, with weight loss, rotten teeth and nails falling off; Hong Kong government criticises AFP for distorting facts

黎智英子女:父獄中健康轉差 體重下降、爛牙、指甲脫落 港府批《法新社》歪曲事實

The children of Jimmy Lai, founder of Next Digital who has been charged with conspiracy to collude with foreign forces, recently told foreign media that their father’s health had deteriorated further, with his weight falling sharply, his teeth rotting and his nails turning green before falling off. Jimmy Lai will turn 78 next week. According to Agence France-Presse, Lai’s children said their father, who has diabetes, had been held in solitary confinement and that there was no air conditioning in the prison, where summer temperatures reached as high as 44 degrees. His daughter, Lai Choi, said Lai had become noticeably thinner and weaker than before: “His nails turn purple, grey and green before they fall off, and his teeth have also started to rot.”

被控串謀勾結外國勢力的壹傳媒創辦人黎智英,其子女近日接受外媒訪問,透露黎智英近日健康狀況進一步轉差,體重急劇下降、牙齒腐爛,而且指甲變綠後脫落。 黎智英下周將度過78歲生日。據法新社報道,黎智英子女表示,患有糖尿病的父親一直被單獨囚禁,監獄裡沒有空調,夏季氣溫高達 44 度。女兒黎采指,黎智英明顯消瘦,而且比以前虛弱,「他的指甲在脫落前會變成紫色、灰色、綠色,牙齒也開始腐爛」。

UN Anti-Torture Convention Report: Hong Kong Government More Than Five Years Late, Shifts Blame over 2019 Anti-Extradition Bill Protests

聯合國《禁止酷刑公約》報告 港府遲交逾五年 2019年反修例事件卸責

The Hong Kong Government was originally due to submit a report to the United Nations Committee against Torture (CAT) in December 2019 on the implementation of the Convention against Torture in Hong Kong. It submitted the report more than five years late and published its contents today (the 10th). The Government did not explain the delay. In the report, it referred to the 2019 anti-extradition bill movement, stressing that guidelines on police use of force complied with international human rights standards, and claimed that “if members of the public express their views peacefully and lawfully, the police do not need to use any force to maintain public order.” In November 2015, CAT reviewed the implementation of the Convention in Hong Kong, at a time marking the first anniversary of the end of the 2014 Umbrella Movement. The committee expressed particular concern about the excessive use of tear gas, batons and pepper spray by police during the movement, which resulted in about 500 people being injured. CAT recommended that the Hong Kong Government conduct an independent investigation into allegations of excessive use of force by police, prosecute personnel involved in accordance with the law, and make public the guidelines on police use of force. CAT required the Government to submit a progress report by 9 December 2019, but the Government did not consult the public on the outline of the report until February 2021; during that period, there was no apparent public or Legislative Council discussion of the matter.

香港政府原定於2019年12月向聯合國禁止酷刑委員會(United Nations Committee against Torture, CAT)提交報告,交代《禁止酷刑公約》在香港的實施情況,但港府遲逾5年才向CAT提交報告,並於今日(10日)公布報告內容。港府未有解釋遲交原因,並在報告中提及2019年反修例運動,強調警方武力使用指引符合國際人權規範,聲稱「如果市民以和平守法的方式表達意見,警方無需使用任何武力維持治安」。 2015年11月,CAT曾審查《公約》在港執行情況,當時正值2014年雨傘運動結束一周年。委員會特別關注警方在運動期間過度使用催淚彈、警棍及胡椒噴霧,導致約500人受傷。CAT建議港府就警方過度使用武力的指控進行獨立調查、依法起訴涉事人員,並公開警方使用武力的準則。CAT當時要求港府須於2019年12月9日前提交進度報告,惟港府至2021年2月才就報告大綱諮詢公眾,期間未見公眾或立法會就此事展開討論。

US Investment Climate Report Says National Security Laws Erode Hong Kong’s Autonomy and Create Uncertainty for Foreign Investment; Hong Kong Government Strongly Dissatisfied

美國《投資環境報告》指國安法律削港自治 為外資帶來不確定性 港府強烈不滿

The US State Department issued its latest Investment Climate Report, saying China’s forceful imposition of the Hong Kong National Security Law has weakened Hong Kong’s autonomy and brought greater uncertainty to foreign and local businesses operating in Hong Kong. It said the uncertainty had increased further following the implementation of the Safeguarding National Security Ordinance. The Hong Kong Government said in a press release last night (28th) that the report was “maliciously smearing” Hong Kong and making unreasonable and untrue allegations, and expressed strong dissatisfaction and opposition. The Hong Kong section of the latest Investment Climate Report comprises 37 pages and 12 chapters, with the National Security Law and the Safeguarding National Security Ordinance mentioned in 24 places. The report said that although Hong Kong still differs from China in some areas, its autonomy had been weakened since the implementation of the two laws, creating uncertainty for foreign and local businesses operating in Hong Kong. In particular, it said the meanings of concepts such as “espionage”, “state secrets” and “external interference” under the Safeguarding National Security Ordinance were extremely broad and vague. Together with the possibility of extraterritorial application, this could hinder routine business activities. In March this year, the US Secretary of State again certified that Hong Kong no longer met the conditions for treatment under US law equivalent to that which it enjoyed before 1 July 1997.

美國國務院發表最新一份《投資環境報告》,指出中國強推《香港國安法》削弱香港自治,並為在港營運的外資和本地企業帶來更大不確定性,而這不確定性在《維護國家安全條例》實施後進一步加劇。港府昨(28日)晚發新聞稿指報告「惡意抹黑」、作出無理失實指控並表示強烈不滿和反對。 最新一份《投資環境報告》有關香港部分共37頁、12個篇章,當中24處提及《國安法》和《維護國家安全條例》。報告指出,儘管香港部分領域仍與中國存在差異,但自《國安法》和《維護國家安全條例》實施後,香港自治被削弱,對在港營運的外資及本地企業帶來不確定性。 尤其《維護國家安全條例》對「間諜行為」、「國家機密」、「外部干預」等概念的意義,極其廣泛和模糊,加上可能在域外適用,恐防礙日常商業活動。今年3月,美國國務卿再次認證香港已不符合在美國法律下享有1997年7月1日前同等待遇的條件。

WSJ Commentary Questions Inhumane Detention of Jimmy Lai; Hong Kong Government Strongly Condemns Media for Disregarding Facts

WSJ 評論文章質疑不人道覊押黎智英 港府強烈譴責媒體罔顧事實

Mark L. Clifford, author of The Jimmy Lai Story, wrote in yesterday’s (15th) Wall Street Journal commenting on the case in which Next Digital founder Jimmy Lai is charged with “conspiracy to collude with foreign forces”. He described the case as posing a growing danger to the reputation of Hong Kong and China. The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government issued a press release today strongly condemning various US and Western institutions and media outlets for once again disregarding the facts and smearing and defaming the SAR Government. “Various media outlets intend to obstruct judicial fairness” Clifford, a former editor-in-chief of the South China Morning Post and director of Next Media, and now chairman of the Hong Kong Free Fund Committee, wrote a commentary in the Wall Street Journal titled “The Extremely Dangerous Pressure of the Jimmy Lai Case”. The article said that 77-year-old Jimmy Lai was spending another summer in Hong Kong, and that Hong Kong should seek a way out of a situation posing a growing danger to its own reputation and that of China.

《黎智英傳》作者祁福德 (Mark L. Clifford)在昨日(15 日)的《華爾街日報》撰文,評論壹傳媒創辦人黎智英被控「串謀勾結外國勢力」案件,形容案件已對香港以至中國的聲譽帶來與日俱增的危險。特區政府今日發出新聞稿,強烈譴責美西方不同機構及媒體近日再次罔顧事實、抹黑詆毀特區府。 「不同媒體意圖妨礙司法公正」 曾任《南華日報》總編輯、壹傳媒董事,現為香港自由基金委員會主席的祁福德,在《華爾街日報》撰寫評論文章,題為「黎智英案的極度危險壓力」。文章指,現年 77 歲的黎智英正在香港渡過另一個夏天,香港應該為一個對自已以至中國聲譽帶來與日俱增的危險的境地尋找出路。

Former CFA Overseas Judge Lady Hale Says National Security Law Led to Her Departure and Has Taken Over the Basic Law; Government Rebuts

終院前海外法官何熙怡受訪 稱離任因國安法實施、現已取代基本法 港府反駁

Lady Hale, who served as an overseas non-permanent judge of Hong Kong’s Court of Final Appeal from 2018 to 2021 and was formerly President of the UK Supreme Court, recently told an academic journal that she did not seek reappointment after her term ended in 2021 because the National Security Law had been implemented and she felt it was time to leave. She described the National Security Law as having now “taken over” the Basic Law and said she believed her decision to leave was correct. Lady Hale also said that the refusal to approve the appointment of King’s Counsel Tim Owen to come to Hong Kong to defend Jimmy Lai was an example of Beijing’s interference in Hong Kong’s courts. She said she did not want to be part of such a system and added: “I feel very sorry for them, very sorry.” The Government issued a statement on Friday evening, criticising Lady Hale’s remarks about the National Security Law, the rule of law in Hong Kong and judicial independence as inconsistent with the facts. It said, “In particular, her claim that the so-called ‘National Security Law has overridden the Basic Law’ is absolutely incorrect and contrary to the facts.” The Government also pointed out that Lady Hale had previously said she did not seek reappointment for personal reasons, which differed from her current account. The Judiciary did not directly comment on Lady Hale’s remarks, but reiterated that Hong Kong’s rule of law and judicial independence are safeguarded by the Basic Law. It said the Court of Final Appeal has six overseas non-permanent judges who, through their participation in hearings, have made significant contributions to the work of the Court and the development of Hong Kong’s judicial system.

曾於 2018 至 2021 年出任香港終審法院海外非常任法官、前英國最高法院院長的何熙怡,近日接受學術期刊訪問,談及自己 2021 年任期屆滿後不續任,是因為其時《國安法》實施,認為是時候退場,又形容現時《國安法》已「取代」(has taken over)《基本法》,她更相信當時離任的決定正確。 何熙怡又指,英國御用大狀 Tim Owen 不獲批准來港為黎智英抗辯,正是北京干預香港法庭一例,她指自己不想成為這種制度的一部分,又稱感到非常抱歉(I feel very sorry for them, very sorry)。 政府周五傍晚發稿回應,批評何熙怡對《國安法》及香港法治、司法獨立發表的言論與事實不符,「尤其她指所謂『國安法已凌駕《基本法》』這點絕不正確,有違事實。」港府又指出,何熙怡曾表示因私人原因不續任,與她現時的說法有異。 司法機構未直接評論何熙怡的說法,重申香港的法治和司法獨立受《基本法》保障,終院共有 6 名海外非常任法官,透過參與聆訊,對終院的工作及香港司法制度的發展作出了重大貢獻。
