It’s noteworthy in #HongKong court case for #721YuenLongAttack that a team of police officers arrived at the scene 1 minute after armed mob attacked on civilians. They stayed half an hour and left the mob launching further attacks, and even refused to receive civilians’ reports.
MPs raised the disappearance of Hong Kong activist Andy Li with Dominic Raab yday.
Reports suggest Li is being held in a psychiatric hospital in territory, in what one MP branded “classic tactics of the Chinese Communist Party”.
Raab has pledged FCDO will look into the case.
There are rumours that #AndyLi has provided evidence to support the state and against his friends.
If this is the case I can only imagine what they did to him to make him do it.
Anybody talking shit about Andy on my feed will be immediately blocked.
