2 prisoners found guilty of helping correctional officer attack fellow inmate

Two prisoners, Bosco Lee and Brian Lam, were found guilty by a Hong Kong court of assisting a correctional officer in attacking another inmate at Pik Uk Prison. The incident occurred on December 26, 2023, when the officer, Tam Lik-chung, assaulted the victim, identified as Chiu, by repeatedly inserting a stick into his rectum. Tam had previously pleaded guilty to the same charge, but Lee and Lam denied involvement. The attack followed a game of bingo where the loser was sprayed with baby powder, leading to a confrontation that escalated into physical violence.

Bias read (Center): The article reports on a criminal case involving prison staff and inmates in Hong Kong. While the incident involves correctional services personnel, the framing remains neutral, focusing on legal proceedings and the sequence of events without overtly favoring any political perspective.
