Police welcome warning to RTHK

Police today welcomed the Communications Authority’s decision that Radio Television Hong Kong (RTHK) should be seriously warned regarding complaints against an episode of its programme Pentaprism broadcast on November 20, 2019.

 

Police said it had taken note of the press release issued by the authority on April 20 about its decision.

     

The authority found that the host’s remarks made in the programme were irresponsible and could be regarded as hate speech with the effect of inciting hatred against Police.

 

The remarks were also unfair to and were capable of adversely affecting Police’s reputation.

 

The authority took the view that the complaints in respect of accuracy, incitement of hatred and fairness were substantiated and decided that RTHK should be seriously warned.

     

Since the anti-extradition bill protests in June last year, rumours have been circulating to defame and smear Police in an attempt to disrupt its relations with the community, the force said.

 

Police reiterated that they are willing to accept criticisms which are constructive and based on goodwill, but they do not accept inaccurate or misleading reports and remarks, and will follow up as appropriate.

Police refute media report

In response to a media report, Police today dismissed allegations that Commissioner of Police Tang Ping-keung turned a blind eye to unauthorised building works at a flat he rented.

 

The force expressed regret over the unfounded report and said that its content deviated from the facts.

      

Mr Tang rented a unit on Broadcast Drive in Kowloon Tong in 2016 and was notified by the Buildings Department in 2017 that there were unauthorised building works on the unit’s rooftop that must be removed.

 

He immediately informed the owner of the removal order and requested him to handle the matter. The owner has not complied with the order.

 

Mr Tang moved out of the unit in June 2019, Police added.

Police involved in offences arrested

Police today said it is highly concerned about recent criminal offences involving police officers and that a number of these officers have been arrested.

 

Among them, officers in connection with serious offences have been or will be interdicted.

 

The force said it is furious and disappointed about the officers who are suspected of having breached the law and that the incidents have impaired public confidence in Police.

 

Police attach the utmost importance to the discipline and integrity of officers.

 

All officers, irrespective of their ranks, must abide by the law at all times.

 

Police management has zero tolerance towards any acts that breach the law or discipline by police officers, it added.

 

The force also said it attaches great importance to the integrity of its officers.

 

The Complaints & Internal Investigations Branch formulated the Integrated Integrity Management Framework to promote integrity and honesty among officers as well as to regulate their discipline and conduct.

 

To avoid similar incidents, Police said its management is reviewing the force’s internal management strategy.

 

Police reiterated that no bad element in the force can be tolerated.

 

If an officer is suspected of having breached the law or committed a breach of discipline, Police will conduct an investigation according to the established mechanism and take appropriate actions.
