单词 | Unlawful assembly |
释义 | 非法集結 When three or more persons assembled together, conduct themselves in a disorderly, intimidating, insulting or provocative manner, intended or likely to cause any person reasonably to fear that the persons so assembled will commit a breach of the peace, or will by such conduct, provoke other persons to commit a breach of the peace: Public Order Ordinance (Cap 245) s 18(1). A person who takes part in an unlawful assembly commits an offence: s 18(3). It is immaterial that the original assembly was lawful if, being assembled, the persons so assembled conduct themselves in such a manner as to come within the definition of an unlawful assembly: s 18(2); HKSAR v Tsui Yat Hung & Ors [1999] 3 HKC 47. All that is required is proof that those assembled conducted themselves provocatively or in a disorderly fashion, causing apprehension of a breach of the peace: HKSAR v Yeung Kin Ping & Ors [1997] 3 HKC 478, HKLRD 1008. The right of peaceful assembly recognised under the Bill of Rights is not inconsistent with this provision creating the offence of unlawful assembly: R v To Kwan Hang & Anor [1994] 2 HKC 293, [1995] 1 HKCLR 251 (CA). See also Affray; Breach of the peace; Common purpose; Riot. 凡有三人或多於三人集結在一起,作出擾亂秩序的行為或作出帶有威嚇性、侮辱性或挑撥性的行為,意圖導致或相當可能導致任何人合理地害怕如此集結的人會破壞社會安寧,或害怕他們會藉以上的行為激使其他人破壞社會安寧,他們即屬非法集結:《公安條例》(第245章)第18(1)條。任何人如參與非法集結,即犯非法集結罪:第 18(3)條。集結的人如作出如上述般的行為,則即使其原來的集結是合法的,亦無關重要:第18(2)條; HKSAR v Tsui Yat Hung [1999] 3 HKC 47。規定所需證明的是集結的人本身作出挑撥性的行為,或以行為不檢的方式,導致他人惟恐會有破壞社會安寧的事情發生:HKSAR v Yeung Kin Ping [1997] 3 HKC 478, HKLRD 1008。在《人權法案》認可的和平集會權利並非與此等產生非法集結罪行的條文並非不符:R v To Kwan Hang [1994] 2 HKC 293, [1995] 1 HKCLR 251(上訴法庭)。另見 Affray; Breach of the peace; Common purpose; Riot。 |
