The cases referred to in your letter are sub judice and cannot comment on the particular circumstances of

the cases you quote.

Nevertheless, the laws under which charges were brought are laws of the Hong Kong Government. The

decision to prosecute was taken by the Hong Kong Attorney

General. It must be for the Hong Kong Government to

handle these cases in accordance with Hong Kong law.
