立法會選舉2025｜金澤培：港鐵於投票日提早開出頭班車 持續鼓勵員工及市民投票
The Legislative Council election will be held on December 7, and the government and various businesses have successively introduced measures to encourage employees and the public to vote. The government earlier said that the voting period would start one hour earlier and end one hour later, from 7:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m. MTR Chief Executive Jacob Chak Pui Kam also wrote in a Sing Tao Daily column today (18th) that, in response to the extended voting hours, the MTR would run its first trains earlier on polling day to facilitate polling-station staff making preparations in advance.
Jacob Chak Pui Kam said the MTR would make use of advertising light boxes at stations and post election reminder information at some entry and exit gates. It would also follow the guidelines of the Electoral Affairs Commission and facilitate registered electors staying on the mainland in travelling to boundary polling stations. The company would at the same time actively support the government’s arrangements for the election and encourage and support members of the public to vote.
To encourage MTR employees to vote, Jacob Chak Pui Kam said election publicity had been carried out through internal communication platforms and posters displayed in offices. Considering that some MTR employees would need to be on duty on polling day, additional staff would also be deployed that day for flexible allocation and to facilitate colleagues voting.
立法會選舉 12 月 7 日舉行，政府以至不同企業都陸續推出措施鼓勵員工和公眾投票。政府早前指選舉的投票開始和結束時間都會分別提早和延遲 1 小時，由早上 7 時半至晚上 11 時半；港鐵行政總裁金澤培今日（18 日）亦在《星島日報》專欄撰文，表示因應今次延長投票時間，港鐵將在選舉日提早開出頭班車，便利票站人員早作準備。
金澤培說，港鐵會善用站內廣告燈箱及部分出入閘機張貼出選舉的提示資訊，又會配合選舉事務處指引及便利身在內地的登記選民前往邊境票站，公司同時會積極配合政府選舉安排的部署，鼓勵和支持市民大眾投票。
為了鼓勵港鐵員工投票，金澤培說已透過內部通訊平台、辦公室張貼海報等宣傳選舉。考慮到部分港鐵員工需於選舉日值班，當日亦會加派人手當值，以作靈活調配和便利同事投票。

7.21非白衣人案｜監察CCTV兩警多次匯報聚集、打鬥 警區覆「得啦」、「處理緊」
The prosecution successively called two plainclothes officers stationed at Yuen Long Station to monitor CCTV to testify. Based on the evidence given in court so far, the two officers repeatedly reported gatherings and fights to the Yuen Long Police District operations room. The earliest report was made shortly after about 9:30pm that night, when a sergeant noticed that “there were more people, and more gatherings”, and made a report. After 10:30pm, he noticed fighting and reported it more than 10 times.
The other officer testified that at around 10pm he “saw people in white shirts carrying sticks and shields” entering the station. When chasing and fighting broke out at 10:40pm, he made a report. At about 10:48pm, he reported again after seeing many people gathered in the middle of the concourse and several white-shirted people outside the turnstiles. The two officers quoted several replies from the operations room, including: “We know, that’s enough, OK?” and “We know, we’re handling it.”
During defence questioning, reports cited by the officers stated that three uniformed police officers arrived at the station at 10:52pm. They found about 100 white-shirted people “shouting and calling for a fight”. The three officers withdrew after requesting assistance. According to earlier evidence in court, the Rapid Response Team was instructed to go to Yuen Long Station at around 11pm and arrived about 15 minutes later. The case continues on Friday.
控方先後傳召駐元朗站監察閉路電視的兩名便衣警作供。綜合目前庭上證供，兩人多次向元朗警區行動室匯報聚集、打鬥，最早一次匯報是當晚約 9 時半後，警長指留意到「人群多咗，聚集多咗」，遂作匯報；至 10 時半後 ，他發現有打鬥，曾匯報逾 10 次。
另一警員則供稱，10 時許「見到白衫揸棍揸牌」進站，至 10 時 40 分有追逐、打鬥發生，遂作匯報；約 10 時 48 分，大堂中間有多人聚集，閘機外有多名白衣人，他再匯報。兩警引述行動室數次回覆，分別稱「我哋知道㗎啦，得啦 OK 啦」、「知道我哋處理緊」等等。
據辯方盤問時引述警員匯報，10 時 52 分有 3 名軍裝警到站，當時發現已約 100 白衫人「叫囂、喊打」，3 人求援後撤退。據早前庭上證供，快速反應部隊約 11 時獲指示前往元朗站，約於 15 分鐘後到達。案件周五續。

7.21非白衣人案｜快速應變部隊指揮官：無印象警員曾匯報 站內多人叫囂喊打
Under questioning by the defence, Lee said he was instructed at about 11 p.m. that night to go to the station to provide assistance, but did not remember the actual content of the instruction. He led his team to arrive at about 11:15 p.m. The defence noted that MTR had made two calls for police assistance that night, reporting fights, and that a uniformed officer who had attended the scene had reported observing about 100 white-shirted people shouting and calling for violence. Lee said he had no recollection of these matters.
The defence played CCTV footage which it said showed that, before the police reached the concourse via the escalator at Exit G, white-shirted people left via the adjacent escalator but subsequently turned back. Lee identified himself as the white-shirted officer leading the group up the escalator, but said he had not noticed anyone nearby at the time, nor noticed that they were carrying sticks and wearing gloves. “When I was running, I was looking at the steps because I was afraid of falling, so I couldn’t see what was beside me.”
Lee subsequently agreed that, when he was instructed to go to the scene, he already knew that many white-shirted people had gathered, and therefore more than 20 officers had to be deployed. He also agreed that they might have engaged in violent acts. The defence further said that, as Lee went up the escalator, he was holding his police baton against his shoulder, indicating that he believed they needed to remain on guard; Lee agreed. The case continues on Wednesday.
辯方盤問下，李稱當晚約 11 時接指示到站協助，但稱不記得指示的實際內容，而他帶隊約 11 時 15 分到場。辯方問及港鐵當晚曾作出兩個報警求助，指有人打鬥，而有曾到場的軍裝警匯報亦提及觀察到約 100 名白衫人士叫囂、喊打；李均稱無印象。
辯方播閉路電視片段，指顯示警沿 G 出口扶手電梯到達大堂前，有白衫人從旁邊的扶手電梯離開，但其後調頭。李認出自己是帶頭走上電梯的白衫警，但指當時沒留意到旁邊有人，亦無留意他們持棍、戴手套，「我跑嗰時望住啲梯級驚跌親，所以側邊啲嘢我睇唔到。」
李其後同意，獲指示到場時，已知悉有不少白衣人聚集，故需派出 20 名以上的警員，又同意他們有可能有暴力行為。辯方又指，李走上扶手電梯時手持警棍放膊頭，顯示他認為要有戒備狀態；李同意。案件周三續。

7.21非白衣人案｜元朗站主任：曾向車站警務室求助 軍裝警着「照程序做」求助
Senior station management officer E, who was granted anonymity, testified that at 10:43 p.m. that night, he saw from the control room’s CCTV that more than 10 people were arguing near Exit F. As he “felt it was more serious”, he called the police room at the station for help. A uniformed police officer subsequently went to the station control room and told him to “follow procedure”, after which he notified the MTR Operations Control Centre and requested that the police be called.
E confirmed that two plainclothes police officers had been monitoring the CCTV in the control room since the afternoon. As he did not know their mission, he said he “would not disturb them”. During cross-examination, the defence asked whether the plainclothes officers had reacted when the dispute occurred. E said, “Not according to my recollection.” E also said that from 10:56 p.m. that night, he was busy answering calls in the control room, so he was unaware of the situation in the station and did not notice the plainclothes officers. The case will continue on Tuesday.
獲准匿名的高級車站管理主任 E 供稱，當晚 10 時 43 分，從控制室的閉路電視看到 F 出口附近約有 10 多人爭執，因「覺得比較嚴重」，遂致電站內警務室求助，一名軍裝警員其後到車站控制室，著他「照程序做」，他遂通知港鐵車務控制中心，要求報警。
E 確認，由下午開始控制室內有兩名便衣警監察閉路電視，由於他不知兩人的任務，故「唔會騷擾」。辯方盤問時問，當爭執事件發生，便衣警有否反應？E 指，「我記憶中就無」。E 又指，當晚 10 時 56 分起開始在控制室忙於接聽電話，故不清楚站內情況，亦無留意便衣警。案件周二續。

港鐵查票竟跪頸 青年擬索償惟申法援被拒
A youth with obsessive-compulsive disorder who holds a Registration Card for People with Disabilities was stopped and restrained on the ground by at least five MTR staff members last year while exiting at Heng Fa Chuen Station using a disability Octopus card. A staff member also knelt on his neck, and he required 11 days of hospital treatment. The youth was charged with assaulting MTR staff. The court earlier found him not guilty, but convicted him of criminal damage and fined him for damaging a staff member’s spectacles. In the judgment, the magistrate strongly criticised the MTR staff for using “unacceptable” methods to restrain him, and said the MTR Bylaws did not authorise staff to use reasonable force. The youth had earlier planned to bring a civil compensation claim against MTR, but his application for legal aid was refused. After enduring considerable pressure from the case, he said he was now uncertain whether to continue pursuing the claim, but had still not come to terms with what happened: “I just want MTR to apologise.”
一名患強迫症、持殘疾人士登記證的青年去年在港鐵杏花邨站，以殘疾人士八達通出閘時，遭最少5名職員截查和按地制服，青年更被跪頸，需住院11天。受襲青年被控告襲擊港鐵職員，法庭早前裁定他罪名不成立，但因損毀職員的眼鏡，刑毀罪成罰款。裁判官在判詞狠批港鐵職員以「不堪」手法制服，亦指《港鐵附例》無賦權職員可用合理武力。青年早前擬向港鐵提出民事索償，但申請法援遭拒。歷經案件龐大壓力後，他透露已對是否繼續索償抱有疑問，但對事件仍未釋懷，「我淨係想港鐵道歉」。
