Memorial to Luo Changqing near the site of the incident

An area near where Luo Changqing was killed, outside the North District Town Hall, became a memorial to him. [11] On 15 November 2019, a public vigil for Luo was held at the site. [40] [41] However, a few days later, the memorial site was vandalised by unknown perpetrators. [42]

On 22 November, members of Luo's family went to the site to mourn him. [14] [43] They initially wanted to remain anonymous, citing concern for their personal safety, [14] [43] but eventually went public, guided by the Hong Kong Federation of Trade Unions (HKFTU). [43] Luo's funeral was held on the same day. [5] His relatives said that he would be buried on a family plot in mainland China. [14] The HKFTU said that, at the family's request, Luo would be buried next to his father in Hunan. [42]

Over hundred thousand people from mainland China, including the Chinese actor Huang Xiaoming, donated to funds set up in support of the families of Luo and a 57-year-old man named Lee Chi-cheung who was set on fire during an argument with protesters. [21] [44] Hong Kong businessman and former legislator Kennedy Wong (Wong Ying-ho), who co-founded a fund in support of citizens and small and medium-sized enterprises affected by the unrest, announced that they would look at how their fund could be used to help Luo's family. [6]

Responses

The Hong Kong Government said in a statement that they were saddened by the incident and that the police would work to bring the offenders to justice. [10] The Food and Environmental Hygiene Department released a statement, expressing profound sadness at the passing of its service worker and saying it was providing assistance to his family. [45] [33] [35] The Secretary for Food and Health Sophia Chan (Chan Siu-chee) said in a statement that "I am deeply saddened and extend my condolences to the family." [6]

The Citizens' Press Conference representing the protesters released a statement expressing their "extreme condolences" at the death of the old man and said that citizens should not wind up as sacrifices of political struggles regardless of their political viewpoints. "Only by solving the political issue through political means", the conference continued in the statement, "could the Hong Kong communist regime settle the conflicts and uncertainties, and end the needless sacrifices and tragedies." [46]

The Hong Kong Liaison Office expressed its "deep condolences" and urged the Hong Kong people to "denounce violence and protect the rule of law and stability of society together." [12] [6] They reiterated their support for the Hong Kong government and police force, urging them to punish the culprits sternly in accordance to the law. [6] The office characterised the attack as "an atrocity against humanity that was totally inhumane and unforgivable." [6] [18] In a commentary in the Chinese state-owned news agency Xinhua , this fatal incident was cited as one of the examples highlighting the violence perpetrated by "black-clad rioters" besetting Hong Kong's society. [47]

The case was initially classified as a wounding, and assigned to the New Territories North Regional Crime Unit. [15] Following Luo's death, it was upgraded to murder, [14] [6] [34] [21] as the police believed that the attacker had "maliciously" and "deliberately" struck Luo with the brick. [6] The case was referred to the Coroner's Court for follow-up. [6] [17] [19] The police offered an HK$800,000 reward for information on the killer. [3] [12] [4]

After police reviewed CCTV footage, [6] and noting that some nearby cameras had been damaged by protesters, [41] Senior Superintendent Chan Tin-chu told reporters that "Those in black first threw metal rods and bricks at the residents while Luo was believed to have used a mobile phone to film the scene. Then someone in black darted forward and threw a brick at his head." [6] [18] Other reports described the confrontation as initiated by the pro-government group. [34]

On 13 December 2019, five suspects – three men and two women, aged 15 to 18 – were arrested in Sheung Shui and Tai Po in connection with murder, wounding, and participation in a riot. [12] [49] [50] They were detained at the New Territories North Regional Headquarters in Tai Po for further inquiries. [12] The police learned about these suspects after examination of online and CCTV footage of the area. [12] They alleged that some of the five suspects threw bricks and wounded people, but said that no footage showed them throwing bricks directly at the now-deceased man. [12] They also said that one of them, a 16-year-old boy, had hurled bricks at a 61-year-old man whose left retina was damaged. [12] The suspects were released on bail. [50]

Two male teenagers were then charged, initially with murder (as accomplices under the doctrine of joint enterprise) but reduced to manslaughter by the judge, after she saw the evidence. [51] [48] [52] [53] On 22 April 2020, Chan Yin-ting (aged 16) and Lau Tsz-lung (Kelvin Lau, aged 17) appeared at the Tuen Mun Magistrates' Court to face charges for the murder of Luo Changqing, rioting, and wounding with intent. [54] [55] [56] Court documents said that Chan and Lau, along with others who currently remain unidentified, were responsible for the killing of Luo. [54] They were remanded in custody. After a 1 June adjournment at Eastern Magistrates' Court, the case was transferred to the High Court. [54] [55] [56] The police said that the two were among six people — three male and three female, aged 15 to 18 — arrested in December in connection with Luo's killing. [48] [54] [55]

On 17 June 2020, the police released photographs of 14 other suspects wanted in connection with Luo's death. [57] [58] Senior Inspector Wong Yiu-ming of the New Territories North Regional Crime Unit stated that "We have reasons to believe the 14 suspects are involved in the case," but did not give further details about the suspects or their roles, citing the ongoing legal proceedings. [57]

In July 2022, Chan Yin-ting and Lau Tsz-lung were unanimously cleared of manslaughter and wounding charges but convicted of rioting, following a jury trial. [51] Both young men were sentenced to 5.5 years in jail. [59] [60]

Parallel trading in Hong Kong is the phenomenon of Chinese parallel traders taking advantage of multiple entry visa policy to import goods from Hong Kong to mainland China, causing shortages of household goods in various locations starting in the North District and expanding to Tuen Mun, Yuen Long, Tai Po and Shatin. Problems related to this include increasing congestion from day traders, overloading of infrastructure and disruption of the everyday lives of residents in the northern districts of Hong Kong.

Anti-parallel trading protests took place in Hong Kong between 2012 and 2015, and again in 2019, against parallel traders importing goods from Hong Kong to Mainland China.

This segment of the timeline of the 2019–2020 Hong Kong protests covers the month of July 2019. The anniversary of the 1997 handover of Hong Kong to China on 1 July saw large daytime protests. In the evening of that day, protesters stormed the Legislative Council Building and defaced symbols, with police only moving in after midnight. This incident, which was sharply condemned by the government of Carrie Lam, did however not lead to a split between peaceful and violent protesters. Observers linked the understanding of the non-violent protesters for the violent wing to the lack of willingness of the Lam government to engage in dialogue about the protesters' five demands. Apart from major protests on Sundays, there were also mostly peaceful demonstrations during the week.

The month of August 2019 in the 2019–2020 Hong Kong protests saw a continuation of protests throughout the city. Several of the peaceful daytime protests were held by social groups such as families, the elderly, and various professions. In many instances, peaceful protests occurs during the day, turning increasingly violent at night. In North Point and Tsuen Wan, white- or blue-shirted armed groups were attacking protesters, but unlike in the Yuen Long violence of 21 July they were beaten back in North Point. Protesters aimed at drawing international attention through methods such as extended sit-ins at the airport. In many occasions, an eye injury of a female protester who had served as frontline medical staff became a symbol of the protests. At the airport protests, a mainland journalist was violently tackled by protesters who did not reveal his identity to the protesters. Protesters later apologised for this incident, reducing tensions and satisfying some pro-establishment lawmakers. The Prince Edward station attack on 31 August proved to be a further landmark event in the protests.

In October 2019, the 2019–2020 Hong Kong protests saw a further escalation of violence. It became evident that the protests were unlikely to end soon, and that they posed the biggest popular challenge to Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leader Xi Jinping since his ascension to CCP general secretary in 2012. To bring the situation under control, Chief Executive Carrie Lam invoked colonial-era powers to impose an anti-mask law, aimed at preventing protesters from hiding their identity. Observers considered the law, which came into force on 4 October, as a precedent for possible wider use of emergency powers at the expense of citizens' freedoms and in addition democratic rights, as they even saw the possibility of the upcoming District Council elections being cancelled based on the emergency law. The mask ban did, however, not achieve the desired effect, but rather proved a further focal point of protests. In November, the High Court ruled the mask ban to be unconstitutional, although in April 2020, an Appeal Court ruled that it was constitutional in the case of unlawful assemblies.

The month of November 2019 in the 2019–2020 Hong Kong protests started with protesting in malls and police getting into homes and malls to arrest protesters. The death of Chow Tsz-lok in Sheung Tak, Tseung Kwan O had led to more protests. In mid November, there were city-wide strikes which lasted for more than a week. Hong Kong Police officers fired tear gas in Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU), and nearby areas. In late November, the District Council elections were held. The pro-democracy camp in conjunction with the localist groups got more than 80 per cent of the seats and gained control of 17 out of 18 District Councils.

Chow, who was clad in black clothing that had become an unofficial uniform for protesters, had been wandering alone inside the building in the moments preceding the fall. The car park was close to an area of confrontation between protesters and police.

The 2019 CUHK campus conflict, also known as the siege of the Chinese University of Hong Kong and Chinese University of Hong Kong conflict, was a part of the 2019–2020 Hong Kong protests. As protesters disrupted traffic to facilitate a general strike on 11 November 2019, other protesters inside Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) threw objects onto railway tracks near the University station, to which the Hong Kong Police Force responded by shooting pepper bullets at students and launching volleys of tear gas into the campus. The next day saw various clashes and skirmishes between the two sides, with the police storming into campus to conduct arrests while the protesters, in response, threw petrol bombs. After nightfall, the university's vice-chancellor and president Rocky Tuan arrived to seek mediation with the police, who refused to negotiate. The conflict escalated into widespread protests in various parts of Hong Kong in an attempt to divert the police's attention. At least 119 students were injured.

After the rapid deterioration of the overall situation in the city in the course of the previous months of the 2019–2020 Hong Kong protests, a degree of calming of the protests occurred in December 2019. This was due to several factors. One was an initial expectation of the protesters and their supporters that the government would finally offer concessions on the Five Demands – apart from the withdrawn extradition bill – after the resounding defeat of the pro-establishment camp in the District Council Elections on 24 November, which had dealt a blow to government rhetoric about its public support. The mass protests on 8 December were largely an expression of dissatisfaction that these concessions had not been forthcoming. Another factor seen as responsible for the decrease in the size of the protests was that the arrests during the Siege of Polytechnic University had thinned the ranks of the protesters.

This is a list of protests in January 2020 that were part of the 2019–2020 Hong Kong protests. The protests continued to be buoyed up by the success of the pan-democrats at the November 2019 District Council Elections, but also continued to feel the effects of the mass arrests at the November 2019 siege of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. With the notable exceptions of protests on New Year's Day and on 19 January, protests remained smaller-scale but took place almost every day. It appeared that police, under its new chief Chris Tang, had changed its tactics to round up violent protesters early, aiming to avoid the spiralling into evening violence that had occurred in many of the earlier protests.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Timeline of the 2019–2020 Hong Kong protests (February 2020)</span> February events of the 2019–2020 pro-democracy demonstrations in Hong Kong

In late January 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic started to gain more concerns from the public due to its severity. In early February, consequently, the organizers announced to suspend the demonstrations. Alternatively, protests over responses to the outbreak were held in various districts. The largest demonstrations besides the outbreak protests were to commemorate the July 21 Yuen Long attack and August 31 Prince Edward station attack, as well as the death of Chow Tsz-lok and Chan Yin-lam.
