Cctv newsOn the afternoon of 14th, the Hong Kong police held a press conference. The police said that the illegal assembly held by demonstrators at the airport on the 13th was not a so-called peaceful assembly at all, but an extremely violent illegal act. During the day’s operation, the police arrested five people on suspicion of illegal assembly, assaulting a police officer and possessing offensive weapons. The police said that the Hong Kong police must strictly enforce the law against violent violations and pursue them to the end.
Assistant Commissioner of the Hong Kong Police Force, Mak Zhan-hao, said that during the illegal gathering of airport demonstrators on the 13th, a large number of demonstrators deliberately created troubles and provoked the police. During this period, when a police officer was chasing the demonstrators who attacked him, he was pushed to the corner by a group of radical demonstrators and then encircled. The police officer was robbed of his baton and pepper spray, and his life was seriously threatened. Police officers were forced to draw their guns to protect themselves.
