In relation to an interview with a former member of the Independent Police Complaints Council (IPCC) published in a local Chinese newspaper yesterday (January 19), a Police spokesman gives the following response today (January 20):
Since the IPCC commenced a study on the public order events since June 9, 2019, the Police Force has been maintaining close liaison with the IPCC and has professionally facilitated every aspect of the work of the IPCC Special Task Force, including the provision of required documents, answering their enquiries as well as arranging interviews with specific Police commanders, etc.
Police regret that the content of the interview may lead to misunderstanding that Police have not been fully cooperative with the IPCC in its study. Police reiterate that it will continue to fully cooperate with the IPCC Special Task Force in all aspects of its study.
