RE: HK murder suspect is forced to be free and cant turn him self in

in #hongkong5 years ago

"that the murder goes unpunished despite the murderer asking for it is tragic, but this is just the excuse of the government for the law"

But not changing the law will allow anyone to commit crimes like this. Why doesn't the people want the law to change? It seems like a very stupid law right now.

Sort:  

it is a stupid law... if i commit a murder anywhere then in germany i could be brought to justice... it would have sucked even more for hong kong if similar to germany they had a lot of citizen going to fight with ISIS and they could not trial them at home (which is possible in germany as long as they can find out what specific crimes are commited)...

but the laws could be made to broaden the area of violation... instead they opt for an extradition treaty so they can target hong kong protestors... democracy and freedom of expression and protest in hong kong is here at stake
