Yan Ke has been detained for obstructing public servants in carrying out his works (section 186 of the penal code) for more than 5 hours.
The police is again delaying the process of taking statement until late night. A female police officer warned to fine people came to show support in the name of prevention of covid-19.
We would like to say that these are acts of abuse of power, abuse of power and abuse of power!
In the first place he should not be detained just because of taking video of police who raided the house of UMANY president. The police should not afraid of video recording if they have nothing to hide.
These problems again shows we need to reform the police force and put IPCMC in place to prevent abuse of power. It’s wrong to use covid-19 as pretext to restrict freedom of expression and assembly. The trend of authoritarianism during the pandemic is worrying.
