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.

Police: “Protesters Were Led to Yuen Long Station by Malevolent Ringleaders During 7.21 Attacks”; Pro-Democracy Legislator Refutes Such Claims

PPRB Senior Superintendent, Kwong Wing Cheung had been interviewed by Cable TV. When asked about the 7.21 Indiscrimate Attacks in Yuen Long Station, he criticised those whom he claimed had "organised the entire ordeal" and "lead protesters to Yuen Long Station".

Legislative Councillor and victim of the 7.21 Indiscriminate Attacks, Lam Cheuk-ting refuted these claims. He reiterated that civilians had been attacked long before he arrived at the scene. He deplored the police force for spreading rumours and lies fabricated by Junius Ho Kwan-yiu, which only served to deepen the existing social divide and intensify phobias within society.

Today Marks the 8th Month Of Yuen Long 721 Attack: MTR Shutting Down Most Yuen Long Exits From 4p.m

On 21 July 2019, police were absent when an armed mob brutally assaulted civilians in Yuen Long MTR station and on the streets. The attack has scarred the hearts of many Hong Kong people: Not that it took the police as long as 39 minutes to arrive, but also there were reports about the police turning a blind eye to the attacks.

Today (21 March) marked the 8th month since Yuen Long 721 Attack. MTR yesterday claimed that Yuen Long Station and Long Ping Station will be opened as usual. However, the Corporation suddenly announced to close Yuen Long Exit A, B, J, K and H at 16:00.

According to Stand News and HKGolden livestream, police have been deployed in the station before 4p.m and conducted stop and search. A teeenager was frisked by the police and escorted to the control room.

Netizens initiated "Dragon Boat Festival - Shop with You" event in Yuen Long. After a short time of conflict, with police frisking and arresting civilians in mall, a group of riot police suddenly charged into the Mall at around 1900. They pepper-sprayed civilians and district councilor Lam Chun.

Some civilians felt unwell afterwards and received medical treatment. One of them pointed out in an interview that "someone in plaincloth" pepper-sprayed him twice, making him unable to open his eyes. The area around his eyes was red and swollen.
