Police Arrest Pro-democracy Activists and Former Lawmakers Ray Chan, Chu Hoi-dick and Ted Hui
According to the Facebook pages of #RayChan, #ChuHoiDick and #TedHui, the three pro-democracy activists were arrested by the police at their homes on the morning of November 18, 2020.
The case was reportedly connected to the legislative council (#LegCo) meeting on June 4, 2020, where the three then-lawmakers protested against the third reading of the National Anthem Bill.
The police accused Hui of breaching the Legislative Council (Powers and Privileges) Ordinance Cap.382 with the charge of comtempt, as he spilled smelly liquid on the floor of the chamber and "caused the LegCo chair to feel disturbed and mentally distressed".
Chan and Chu resigned from the LegCo in Oct, as they refused to let the term be extended by the CCP without an election; Hui joined the recent mass resignation.
