CE concerned over reporter's arrest

August 25, 2015

Chief Executive CY Leung says the Hong Kong SAR Government is concerned about a Hong Kong reporter's detention in Thailand.

 

The photographer from a local online media outlet was reportedly detained for possessing a bullet-proof vest.

 

The SAR Government has contacted the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Chinese Embassy in Thailand to express concern over the case and offer necessary assistance.

 

Mr Leung calls on the Thai government to handle the case with discretion and not only consider the legal aspects.

 

He reminds Hong Kong residents travelling abroad to pay attention to local laws and avoid taking illegal actions.
