The details of the seven cops who ganged up on an Occupy Central protester have been leaked.
On Wednesday, Oct. 15, a group of policemen were caught on camera dragging a restrained activist to a dark alley before repeatedly hitting and kicking him.
The video was widely circulated on the web, and the Hong Kong police force was condemned for that action
The victim, Ken Tsang Kin-chiu from the liberal democratic Civic Party, had to go to a hospital to receive treatment for his injuries, and has since sought legal action against the police.
The police suspended the seven officers from duty the next day but refused to divulge their identities.
However, at least one cop, Chief Inspector Wong Cho-shing, was spotted and identified by eye witnesses at the scene.
