Tsz Lok Ng acquitted in explosion case but allegedly not returned passport; exiled protester says it is not an isolated incident
吳子樂爆炸案脫罪後疑未獲發還護照 流亡抗爭者稱非單一事件
Hong Kong police’s National Security Department arrested five people on Tuesday (28th), accusing them of offences including “assisting and abetting riot” and alleging that they made and supplied weapons during the anti-extradition movement. They included Tsz Lok Ng, the third defendant acquitted by a jury in the second terrorism case. Ng and another arrested person were immediately charged and remanded. Pulse HK learned that Tsz Lok Ng had been unable to leave Hong Kong since being acquitted, while the police and the Department of Justice declined to comment on whether the passport had been retained by the court. Some people acquitted in anti-extradition movement cases and Hong Kong advocates overseas said that, if Hongkongers continue to face suppression in Hong Kong, they should not hesitate to seek asylum in other countries.
港警國安處周二（28日）以涉嫌「協助及教唆暴動」等罪名拘捕5人，指控他們於反送中運動期間製造及提供武器，包括在反恐第二案中獲陪審團裁決無罪的第三被告吳子樂，吳與另一名被捕人士隨即被起訴及還押。《追光者》接獲消息，吳子樂之前在脫罪後一直無法離港，警方及律政司拒絕回應其護照是否被法庭扣起。有反送中脫罪者及海外倡議港人認為，若有港人在香港持續被打壓，不應猶豫到其他國家尋求庇護。
