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".

Hong Kong Court Sentences Parentless Autistic Man with Mild Mental Deficiency to 3 Years in Prison
A 38-year-old truck driver with mild mental disability and autism pointed a toy gun at a police vehicle last September.
After being arrested, police found a scalpel and other items in his possession. Under police warning, he confessed that, “I want the police to pay back what they have done to the pro-democracy protesters.”
The driver earlier pleaded guilty to possession of imitation firearms, possession of offensive weapons in public places, and dangerous driving.
The judge said that it was not a crime to feel resented by police brutality. However, seeking revenge by pointing a toy gun at the police vehicle is a crime.
The court sentenced the man, who has been living on his own after the death of his two parents, to 3 years imprisonment.
