Hong Kong Police Deny Having Tortured Hospitalized Elderly Despite Captured by Surveillance Camera
Three Hong Kong police officers were arrested for torturing a 62-year-old man at North District Hospital in June 2019.
They were charged with "misconduct in public office" and "alternate assaults occasioning actual bodily harm". Two of them pled guilty and are remanded in custody. The third officer Lam Yik-sing pled not guilty to the charges and continued to represent himself in court.
Lam argued that what he saw in the ward on that day was different from the surveillance camera footage. Judge Chan Chung-hang questioned Lam if he was talking about a different angle and challenged him, “are you saying that the surveillance camera footage was fake?” Then, Lam clarified that he referred to a different angle.
