HONG KONG - A Hong Kong appeals panel upheld a police ban on a mass protest planned for Thursday , leaving demonstrators the choice between staying home or risking arrest.

Hong Kong authorities have repeatedly rejected applications for protests since advancing a sweeping national security law that criminalised many tactics used by protesters during a historic wave of unrest last year. The demonstration from Causeway Bay to central Hong Kong was intended to express support for 12 local democracy activists who have been held without charge across the mainland border since getting caught attempting to flee to Taiwan in August.Anyone advertising, publicising or taking part in a public procession on the day may be in violation of the law, Hong Kong's Security Bureau said Monday, according to a government statement.

搞游行就不能换一天吗

ahmed_57409 Typical West media. Only choose the contents meet their narratives. This year has special background. First is National Day this year is also Mid-Autumn Festival which is a peaceful day for reunion in China. Second HK is now in trouble of covid19 so mass activity is dangerous.

the hong kong tyranny and HKPoliceTerrorists cannot turn down protest according to the basic law. Instead they arrest people arbitrary for illegal assembly, or issue fine tickets to people for violating the social distancing law.

I ronically it’s the Chinese important Mid-Autumn fest, which is aiming for family reunion. Let see how the FascistHKPolice and government gonna ruin the fest!

Regardless of the result, Mr. ElmerYuen is wholeheartedly working for our best. We should support him morally. Please sign this petition now ! Many many thanks !

MenSuen Under the dictatorship of the CCP, HongKongers have lost freedom. China keeps committing HumanRightsViolations and arresting people for political persecution. China & HKGov deserve sanctions for violating the Sino British Joint Decl. Chinazi FreeHongKong

1. It is so ridiculous to require approval for protest if freedom is exists. 2. Now COVID19 became a 'reason' for hongkong gov to ban all the protest to stop ppl to voice out. BTW, one of the purpose of this protest is save12hkyouths

In fact, there is no freedom of assembly in Hong Kong. Under the suppression of the CCP, the protection given to us by the Basic Law has disappeared. It has been replaced by the evil national security law😔

Just and excuse for assaulting the protesters . HKPoliceTerrorists BoycottCCP

Not surprised! HongKong is totally off. No more Freedom in HK now. Welcome to a HKPoliceState and NewWestBerlin. FreedomOfSpeech freedomOfExpression Please StandWithHongKong and FreeHongKong HKPoliceState BoycottCCP save12hkyouths

They have been denying many accusation of wrongdoings and selling their version of story. HKPoliceState

Demonstration has been banned for months, even before the outbreak of covid-19 present in Hong Kong.

Freedom of protest must gone! The government must not approve the protest anymore

All protests are banned even the most peaceful one like singing in shopping malls. Hong Kong is now a police state.

Couldn’t think of a time that HKPolice approves for protest in this year, even though it is our right to do so.

They destroy 'sino-British joint declaration' after 1997 we lost human rights, freedom of speech, press freedom hongkongpolice they arrested people randomly, they use violence beat us for vent , use gun shoot us like hunting StandWithHongKong save12hkyouths

There is no lawful rally since NationalSecurityLaw

HKgovt resumes all indoor activities, including school, gym room and church, but prohibits outdoor gathering of 4 ppl/above and postponed election for 1 year. They're just afraid of letting ppl see HongKong ppl are still fighting for their freedom and democracy. save12hkyouths

And Carrie Lam said HK still enjoys freedom of speech & assembly. 🙃 by the way, protests have always been peaceful until HKPoliceTerrorists interfered & started using excessive force...

Repression to freedom in Hong Kong. HongKongers will have no chance to express our own will, no more freedom of speech.

The HK riots Police are fear to facing the truth that so many HKers hate them.

alextong23 As the evil Chinese Communist Party will collapse, its Hong Kong puppet officials will have a bad end. TakeDownTheCCP

Hong Kong people has different freedom which given by Basic Law. But where is the speeching freedom ? ?what a joke. FightForFreedom StandWithHongKong

The police are really laying it in thick in regards to the misdeeds of the arrested demonstrators. They attempt to frame innocent civilians every day.

Still, we will wear black when we get out on that day for mourning the death of HK.

freedom of assembly (and also other forms of freedom) does not exist in Hong Kong the policestate

China had completely destroyed Hongkong's autonomy and freedom by imposing the draconian NationalSecurityLaw. CCP must pay for its evil acts!

Expected, HKPoliceState

It's expected as the regime is contemptuous of our rights. Peaceful protests seem to be impossible under the stringent NSL.

HONGKONG NOW: ❌CRITICISE ❌PROTEST ❌COMPLAIN ✅PRAISE CCP

Soon the people of HongKong would be accused of rioting, even if they stayed home. Protests will extinct.

NOTHING ALLOWED TO DO IN HONGKONG NOW EXCEPT PRAISING CCP‼️

As expected! No freedom of protest in Hong Kong! StandWithHongKong

Hong Kongers' freedom of expression are deprived ! Hong Kong is now one country one system !

What a shameful action. hongkongpoliceterrorists undermined our freedom of assembly. StandWithHongKong

As expected Hong Kong has no more freedom and democracy, free protest right which stated in basic law is simply a joke StandWithHongKong

It's clear that freedom to protest no long exists in Hong Kong now. Every pro-democracy protest is 'illegal' according to the HKPolice.

Logical

Another proof that ccp is trying to suppress our rights of assembly which was stipulated in our Basic Law! standwithHK

f1r2e3e4H5K6 I hope CCPChina could stop pretending that freedom of assembly is still perfect in HongKong
