Police today said they strongly condemn any actions that incite other people to disrupt public order, adding that they will not tolerate any illegal actions that breach social peace.

Police made the statement after noticing that some netizens encouraged blocking main carriageways in various districts tomorrow morning by paralysing traffic and obstructing Police in an effort to surround the Legislative Council building.

Police said illegal road blockages may jeopardise road safety, affect road users, hinder emergency services and put other people’s lives in danger.

They warned that offenders will be arrested and any vehicles that cause serious obstruction will be swiftly towed away.

Police reiterated that, according to the Public Order Ordinance, participating in an unauthorised assembly is subject to a maximum penalty of five years’ imprisonment.

Commuters are advised to reserve more time tomorrow morning and pay attention to traffic news.
