Zou Xingtong, former chairman of the Hong Kong Branch Federation, was charged with the Hong Kong National Security Law to incite others to subvert the state power. Earlier, she applied for media reports to terminate the interrogation.Afterwards, she applied for a judicial review on the decision of the Magistress's decision. The Hong Kong High Court ruled that Zou Xingtong wins the lawsuit on Tuesday (August 2), asking the referee court to terminate media report restrictions.
Comprehensive Hong Kong Sing Tao Daily Ming Daily and "Hong Kong 01" reported that Zou Xingtong applied for the restrictions on the content of the media reports on the regulations of the Norcele on February 4 this year on the Regulations of the Journal of the West Kowloon.However, the National Security Law designated judge and director Rodquan Rodquan rejected the application on April 25; the respondent was the director of the Law Department.
At that time, Rhodequan believed that the relaxation restriction would cause the case to cause the case to discuss sharply and even aggressive discussions, and may bring psychological pressure to potential witnesses, or even shrinking, hindering fair interrogation.
The national security law approved by Zou Xingtong's application judge Li Yunteng explained in the judgment that Article 87A of the judge means that if someone applies to relax the restrictions of the media report delivery process, the restrictions must be lifted if the restrictions must be lifted.The referee did not have the right to discrete, but could only terminate the report restrictions.Li Yunteng believed that Rhodequan's reasons for refusing to apply are running counter to the principles of "judicial disclosure". Although Rhodequan claims that he exercises his discretion to refuse the application, Li Yunteng pointed out that the right to discrete does not exist, and believes that Rhodequan's decision is overweight.
Li Yunteng believes that even if assuming that the right to be as discretional exists, unless the "absolute necessary" refuses to apply for the "absolute necessary" for righteousness, the referee who presides over the delivery process should not refuse to apply, and the case fails to fail to apply, and the case fails to fail to apply, and the case fails to fail, and the case cannot be allowedDisplay reports are "absolutely necessary".
Therefore, Li Yunteng decided to revoke Rhodequan's decision, and ordered Rhodequan to hear the restrictions on the delivery procedure next time, and presented Zou Xingtong to obtain litigation costs.
Zou Xingtong, a 36 -year -old lawyer, was charged from July 1, 2020 to September 8, 2021.
