U.S. Council calls Washington to sanction 29 Hong Kong National Security Law formulati

US members urged Washington to sanction 29 Hong Kong National Security Law formulation judges and criticize these judges to destroy the rule of law and judicial system in Hong Kong.

The United States Association and Administrative Official China Committee (CECC) announced a report written by the committee staff on Thursday (May 11).The report suggested that the US government quoted Hong Kong judges who participated in the national security case with 29 sanctions from Hong Kong Human Rights and Democratic Law and Hong Kong Autonomous Law.

Reports that Hong Kong Chief Executive has so far appointed at least 29 judges to trial cases involving national security.However, the process of the selection judge was extremely opaque, and the Chief Executive's Office even refused to disclose the names of most appointed people.This lack of transparency will not only weaken the public's trust in judicial institutions, but also destroy Hong Kong's judicial independence.

CECC's staff quoted by media reports involving Guoan, and learned that 29 Chinese and English names involved in the interrogation of the Judge of Hong Kong involved in the National Security Law, and noted them next to their names.Cases of trial interrogation.

The 29th Hong Kong National Security Law designated judges listed by the report are as follows: Chen Zhongheng, Chen Zhaokai, Chen Jiaxin, Chen Qingwei, Chen Guangchi, Zheng Nianci, Zhang Jianneng, Zhou Jiaming, Zhu Fenling, Huo Zhaogang, Xiang Shuxian, Guo Weijian, Lin Wenhan, Rhodequan, Li Yunteng, Peng Weichang, Peng Baoqin, Pan Zhaochu, Li Sulan, Li Yi, Su Huide, Su Wentong, Situ Jing, Du Libing, Xie Shen Zhi, Hu Yawen, Yan Shunyi, Yang Zhenquan.

The report said that the Hong Kong government has caused a chilling effect through criminal prosecution of the Hong Kong National Security Law.The Hong Kong National Security Law constitutes a parallel legal system, ignoring the basic procedures such as jury and innocence.These 29 judges have promoted these systematic violations.

CECC also held a hearing on the Hong Kong issue on the same day. Chairman Chris Smith criticized Hong Kong judge Amanda Woodcock and Guo Weijian, saying that they harmed the rule of law and judicial system of Hong Kong and need sanctions.
