During the police dispersal operation, the owner of the restaurant 'Dan Yatai' and her brother were violently subdued by the riot police inside their restaurant and were arrested them on charges of 'obstructing police officers'. The owner and her brother were released on bail the next day.
A year later, 'Dan Yatai' said on their Facebook page on November 13, 2020 that the owner and her brother received a call from the Tuen Mun Police Station and were requested to go to the Police Station.
The owner told Stand News that she and her brother received the call in the afternoon. They were asked to bring their lawyers to the police station on Monday, November 16, but were not informed of their impending arrest.
It was not until her brother pressed further on the question, the police admitted that they would be arrested 'by appointment' and charged with 'obstructing the police officers'.
The owner added that there were a lot of people who got arrested after they were out on bail since last year, so she was psychologically prepared for this. She was confident that she would be exculpated.
On October 30 last year in Tuen Mun, police arrested over 50 civilians. When 'Dan Yatai' reopened on November 12, 2019, a lot of local residents queued up to show their support. Some people wrote encouraging quotes on the restaurant's door.

#Taiwan President #TsaiIngWen: Staying true to my insistence on the value of democracy and freedom, I want to openly voice my support for Mr. Jimmy Lai
In a social media post on December 16, 2020, Taiwan's President Tsai Ing-wen talked about a recent photo of Jimmy Lai, the founder of Next Digital, who was charged with a suspected violation of the Hong Kong National Security Law.
In the photo, Lai was being handcuffed and entangled in a metal chain around his waist on his way to court. Tsai said that the photo was "infuriating".
Tsai said, "the Human Rights Day has just passed, but Hong Kong's human rights are still in its butter winter. Staying true to my insistence on the value of democracy and freedom, I want to openly voice my support for Mr. Jimmy Lai. I want to let him know that the whole of Taiwan, and the whole world are watching this scene. It is not Mr. Lai who was humiliated, but Hong Kong's freedom and the rule of law."
