Police Commissioner Chris Tang: the number of people prosecuted in 7.21 Yuen Long incident is not considerably low.
Editor’s note: The Yuen Long attack was a mob attack that occurred in Yuen Long on 21 Jul, white-shirted men with suspected triad background were seen attacking people in the station with wooden sticks and steel rods.
(22 Nov) 4 months after the 7.21 Yuen Long incident, there are 6 people being prosecuted in total.
Chris Tang, the newly-appointed Commissioner of Police of the Hong Kong Police Force, responded to the doubt about the number of prosecuted in 7.21 Yuen Long incident being disproportionate to other protests.
He believed that the number of people arrested in 7.21 Yuen Long incident is similar to the number of those being prosecuted after protests on 9 June, 12 June and 31 August etc. Tang reiterated that once evidence has been found, the suspect would be arrested immediately.
Tang said, the police would investigate any cases if they noticed the use of violence, regardless of the ideology behind. They would then arrest and prosecute the suspects if evidence supports.

鄧炳強：不認為元朗7.21事件拘捕檢控人數特別低
昨日是7.21元朗襲擊事件4個月，至今有6人被起訴。 新任警務處處長鄧炳強回應，為何7.21事件被檢控人數與其他示威活動被捕和檢控人數，有不成比例的情況，鄧炳強認為，7.21事件當中拘捕的人數，與其他不同案件，包括6月9日、 6月12日和8月31日等示威活動後，拘捕和檢控的人數相若，不會特別低，重申對於這類案件，一有證據便會拘捕，又說，對任何違法行為，不論信念，只要用暴力，警方都會調查，並在有證據時會拘捕和檢控涉案人士。

Third controversy amongst the top brasses of the Police Force, involving Commissioner PK Tang
The Boland Court high-rise duplex unit in Kowloon Tong once rented by Chris Tang Ping-keung, the head of the police force, was found to be illegally modified by reporters of Apple Daily.
The police issued a press release at 3 a.m. on May 4, two hours after the report was published, alleging that the news report was inconsistent with the facts. Tang admitted that as early as 2017, he knew that the Housing Department had issued an statutory removal order, which he then "immediately notified the owner of the removal order and asked him to remove the structure", moving out of the building in June 2019 after the owner refused to comply with the order.
The press release claimed that Apple Daily's report on the matter was untrue and expressed displeasure on it.

Police Commissioner: Saying "Police Beating People to Death" is an Attempt to Violate National Security
Hong Kong police commissioner Chris Tang spoke on TV on the eve of the year-mark of 8.31 Prince Edward Station Attack. Tang tied Hongkongers' concern over the police use of excessive force to a national security issue. Concerning the circulation of the saying of "police beating people to death", Tang described it as a "violation of national security".
According to a survey conducted by Hong Kong Public Opinion Research Institute (#HKPORI) last year, nearly half (47.5%) of the respondents agree with the statement that "police have committed murder at the Prince Edward station on 31 August 2019".

Two more ministers with a police background in Hong Kong; Pro-China lawmaker: "I don’t think there’s any problem with a police state"
On June 25, 2021, the Hong Kong SAR government announced personnel change in the top adminstration, where at least two more officials with law enforcement backgrounds will take up key senior positions.
The current Secretary for Security #JohnLee has been appointed as the new chief secretary. He is the city's first top minister with a police background.
Police Commissioner #ChrisTang will become the Secretary for Security. One of his deputies, #RaymondSiu, is promoted to the police chief.
The personnel change was announced by Chief Executive Carrie Lam in Hong Kong and officiated by the State Ministry of the PRC in Beijing.
The "promotion" has stirred up discontent among the public. Many deemed it as a blatant manifestation of a "police state" in Hong Kong.
However, pro-Beijing lawmaker Alice Mak, of the Federation of Trade Unions, said, "If it’s a police state, why not? I don’t think there’s any problem with a police state."
The government's announcement came one day after the police and the Security Bureau had cracked down the city's pro-democracy newspaper #AppleDaily, by forcing the newspaper and related magazine under #NextDigital to close down on June 24, 2021. The police arrested and charged several editors, news commentators and executives under the #NationalSecurityLaw, while the Security Bureau froze the assets of the newspaper and three related companies.
