Please comment on reports of police attacks and excessive use of force by police against peaceful protestors, including the use of pepper spray, water cannons, batons and tear gas, as was the case during protests between September and December 2014, what became known as the “umbrella movement”. In this context, please indicate if an investigation was opened with regard to the alleged beatings of Mr Ken Tsang by several police officers in the Admiralty protest zone on 15 October 2014.
Please also inform the Committee on the number of persons that were arrested during the “umbrella movement”, the length of their detention, whether they had access to a lawyer and the number of complaints about torture and ill-treatment. Have any investigations on the above mentioned events been conducted and any disciplinary and/or criminal proceedings opened? If substantiated, have the perpetrators been punished?
