Hong Kong: Obscenity Arrests After Decade-Old 'Gay Cops' Video Goes Viral

Hong Kong: Obscenity Arrests After Decade-Old 'Gay Cops' Video Goes Viral

HONG KONG — Hong Kong police arrested two people on Monday over their participation in a nine-year-old explicit video depicting men in police uniforms, a 10-second clip of which went viral in April.

The authorities interrogated two men, described by the Hong Kong Standard as “a 40-year-old jobless man, Ng, and a 45-year-old insurance agent, Chow” after arresting them in the Yuen Long neighborhood of the southern Chinese metropolis.

“The two were held for the unauthorized use of police uniforms, distributing obscene articles, possessing false instruments, handling stolen goods and possessing offensive weapons,” the Standard reported.

One of two men was accused of appearing in the 2012 video, and Cybersecurity and Technology Crime Bureau Senior Inspector Lau Chun-yu said that “none of the men in the video were police officers, adding that the video was made to satisfy the suspects' abnormal taste for sex.”

Senior Inspector Lau also said they had retrieved “equipment such as a walkie-talkie, a handcuff, an extendable baton, a BB gun, a fake police warrant card and several alleged police uniforms” from the apartment in question, although the video was shot almost a decade ago.

“A BB gun, a handcuff and an extendable baton, are not police constables' typical equipment," Lau told the Standard, “but the uniforms do bear a strong resemblance to the genuine ones, and police are still investigating their origin and authenticity."

Hong Kong police also seized “hard disks containing obscene videos.”

Besides the impersonation of law enforcement and weapon charges, Lau “warned that anyone publishing obscene articles could be punishable by a maximum penalty of HK$1 million in fines and a three-year imprisonment, according to the Control of Obscene and Indecent Articles Ordinance.”

The Standard said the video depicts the three men “performing oral sex and sexual intercourse, during which one ‘constable’ is leaning against a wooden chair, while the other two hold him from the front and behind.”
