(Observer Network) Shortly after former Hong Kong criminal prosecution commissioner and senior barrister Jiang Leshi published an article praising "If the Hong Kong Police Force wins the Nobel Peace Prize, it will be worthy of it." On September 18, Hong Kong establishment legislative committee member Ho Kwan-yiu and the Hong Kong Political Research Association launched a joint signing on Facebook to support the nomination of the "Hong Kong Police Force" for the Nobel Peace Prize, as well as the 2020 CCTV "Touching China" group special award. A joint signing link is attached to the post
, which contains the following four questions: whether it supports the nomination of the "Hong Kong Police Force" for the Nobel Peace Prize; whether it supports the "Hong Kong Police Force" to become the special prize of the CCTV "Touching China" group this year; the name of the person is filled in; citizens of Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, or compatriots from the mainland.
After the announcement of the joint signing event, it received strong support from netizens. They praised "The Hong Kong Police Force as the most peaceful police force in the world", "deserved" and "deserved"...
The day before (the 17th), former Hong Kong criminal prosecution commissioner Jiang Leshi published an article in the China Daily, praising the performance of the Hong Kong Police Force in the "Amendment storm", believing that they saved Hong Kong with their outstanding performance and maintained the "one country, two systems". If they win the Nobel Peace Prize, they will be well deserved. The article
pointed out that between June 9 and November 29, 2019, when the Hong Kong police handled social unrest, the rioters used various weapons to attack the police, causing at least 483 injuries, ranging from police officers to superintendents in chief. Jiang Lushi believes that from the existing evidence, the allegations against these criminals are of course not limited to crimes related to disrupting public order, but should also include more serious crimes including the crime of riot.
article also compared the demonstrations that broke out in London in early June this year, saying that protesters involved in the Black Lives Matter movement at that time injured at least 35 policemen in one weekend, and then British Home Secretary Priti Patel vowed to bring the perpetrators and criminals to justice and announced that the maximum penalty for assaulting police would be doubled. This means Priti Patel plans to increase his sentence from one year to two years.
Jiang Lushi said that although the punishment is still very light, it is four times that of Hong Kong. To this end, he believes that it is necessary for the Hong Kong Security Bureau to consider a significant increase in the sentence as soon as possible to provide greater protection for police officers on duty.
In addition, the article also quoted a statement by Judge Gareth Lugar-Mawson during the High Court judgment in 2002, calling for the thugs to be brought to justice: Attacking police is undoubtedly a serious crime and must be sentenced to imprisonment except for special circumstances.
