Triad-linked assailants jailed for HK protest attack

[ad_1]

Seven Hong Kong government supporters who took part in a violent assault on pro-democracy protesters and commuters were jailed on Thursday based on new evidence in the case.

The attack, widely attributed in news reports to members of the 14K and Wo Shing Wo triad gangs, was a turning point in 2019’s huge and often violent pro-democracy protests. Revelations of the assailants’ underworld links badly eroded public trust in both the police force and Hong Kong’s government at the time.

A Hong Kong media outlet published new evidence about the mob attack on protesters and commuters at the Yuen Long MTR station on July 21, 2019, using technology that collects footprints on social media.

Wednesday marked the second anniversary of the Yuen Long attacks, which happened six weeks after the anti-extradition protests broke out in Hong Kong on June 9, 2019. Pro-democracy supporters claimed the incident was a terrorist attack on ordinary citizens, while police claimed it was a fight between two groups.

On July 21, 2019, hundreds of thousands of people marched from Causeway to Central in Hong Kong, urging the government to withdraw its extradition bill from the Legislative Council and release arrested protesters.
