被控沒許可證獅子山展示條幅 馬屎埔陳伯獲裁無罪 律政司半年後通知放棄覆核
On the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival in 2023, Ki Kau Chan, aged over 70, climbed Lion Rock and displayed the words “With brows furrowed, I coldly face a thousand accusing fingers; bowing my head, I willingly serve as an obedient child”, handwritten by himself and attributed to Lu Xun. He was subsequently arrested. Chan denied the charge of displaying a banner in a country park without a permit. After a trial, he was acquitted and awarded costs last December.
The Department of Justice had originally applied for the magistrate to review the verdict and the costs order. However, Ki Kau Chan said on social media last week that he had been notified by the Department of Justice that it was abandoning the review. The Department of Justice told The Witness that it does not comment on individual cases.
Ki Kau Chan told The Witness that “these two years have really been very hard”, saying that he had sought medical treatment because of the pressure. He said, “I went through all that hardship to climb Lion Rock to admire the moon, put up the couplet and take photos as a memento, but even that was not allowed, and I still had to lose my freedom.” He described getting through the ordeal as “a blessing.”
2023 年中秋前夕，70 多歲的「馬屎埔陳伯」陳基裘登上獅子山，展示自己手寫、出自魯迅的「橫眉冷對千夫指 俯首甘為孺子牛」字句，事後被捕。陳否認「沒有許可證下於郊野公園內展示條幅罪」，經審訊後，於去年 12 月獲裁定無罪兼獲判訟費。
律政司原本提出，要求裁判官覆核裁決及訟費命令，但陳基裘上周在社交媒體發布消息，指獲律政司通知放棄覆核。律政司回覆《法庭線》指，不評論個別案件。
陳基裘回覆《法庭線》稱，此兩年「真係好苦呀」，指因壓力大需要求醫。他稱「我咁辛苦上獅子山賞月，去留對聯去影相留念，都唔得，都要失去自由」，形容捱過難關屬「萬幸」。

「馬屎埔陳伯」否認沒許可證獅子山展示魯迅字句條幅 表證成立10.30結案陳詞
Grandpa Chan’s Ki Kau Chan was accused of climbing Lion Rock on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival in 2023 and displaying a banner bearing the words from Lu Xun: “With a cold brow I defy a thousand pointing fingers; with a bowed head I willingly serve as a child’s ox.” The person was subsequently arrested by police. Chan denied one charge of displaying a banner in a country park without a permit. The case was heard at Kowloon City Magistrates’ Courts on Monday (the 30th).

控方傳召案發時截查被告的警員及警長作供，警員供稱截查被告後搜出 3 條條幅，警員檢查「睇到冇違法嘅成分」，亦與國家安全無關，最終放行，亦沒有目睹被告拿出條幅拍照或展示。
辯方表示同意被告曾拿出條幅拍照，但爭議法律上何謂「展示」，亦有言論自由相關的憲法爭議。控方傳召共 3 名證人後，裁判官裁定表證成立，並將案件押後至 10 月 30 日進行結案陳詞。

獅子山展示對聯 陳伯不認罪9.30審訊 擬爭議憲法下言論自由權利
“Grandpa Chan” Ki Kau Chan was accused of displaying the couplet “With arched eyebrows, I coldly defy a thousand fingers; bowing my head, I willingly serve as a willing ox for the children” on Lion Rock on Sept. 28 last year, on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and was subsequently arrested by police. He denied one charge of “displaying a banner in a country park without a permit”. The case came before Kowloon City Magistrates’ Court today (the 23rd) for a pre-trial review. The defence confirmed that it would not dispute that Chan had displayed the couplet on Lion Rock, but intended to raise a legal challenge concerning the constitutional right to freedom of expression. Acting Chief Magistrate Ko Wai-hung accordingly listed the case for a one-day trial on Sept. 30.
