Miss Lui (alias, middle) told how she was sexually harassed by two female officers in a police station. Lui was arrested during an #AntiELAB protest and sent to hospital for she was injured during the arrest. She was charged and mentioned in court in 2 days but she couldn't...
present as she was not discharged yet. A few days later, she was discharged and was supposed to go to court immediately. However she was taken into a position station instead and the ordeal began. Her account as follows:
"After I followed two female officers into a room in the police station, one officer loudly ordered me to take off all my clothes, including my underwear, for a body search. I asked why even underwear, she said it was because I was a criminal. I was told scare to resist...
...during the search I tried to protect my important parts with my hands but the office hit my hands with a pen and ordered me to put my hands down. She also hit the inner sides of my thighs with that pen, ordering me to open my legs wider. She also ordered me to...
...squat and stand up for 3 times but I couldn't due to my wounds. After inspecting my front, they ordered me to turn around and show them my back. When I turned, I saw the other officer watching me with an enjoying look, glancing me up and down...
...After the search and I got dressed again, and when the door opened, I saw a dozen of male officers standing outside in the corridor who were not there when I walked into the room. I was extremely embarrassed and I was on the brink of tears but I ...
clenched my fist and held back my tears, while telling myself if I cried in front of them, I would lose. I want to ask the @hkpoliceforce is it the case that an arrestee doesn't have any basic human right and is it the case that the force do not have any respect for women...
I became depressed and refrained from going out in light of this experience, fearing of encountering police. But after I learned that more than 30 arrestees were physically assaulted, I was so angry that I decided to come out and I urged those who were assaulted to speak up."
It has been weeks since what happened to Lui and the process lasted 15 to 30 minutes as she recalled. Lui spelled out the numbers of the two female officers during the presser. Her lawyer said they would study the possibility to sue the officers for...
indecent assault, conspiracy for indecent assault, assault and conspiracy for assault. Lui was presented a form to declare her consent for the "naked search" by the police after the search. She did not sign. Lui said she did not have any chance to lodge a complaint.

#BREAKING HK top court ruled in favour of journalist @Baochoy’s appeal , quashing all her conviction and fines as the court found “there was no reason that bona fide investigative journalism … should be excluded from the phrase ‘other traffic and transport related purpose’.”
Choy was found guilty of “making false statement” 2 years ago for choosing the purpose of “other traffic and transport related matters” on the application form for car owner info from public registries controlled by the Transport Dept.
