Please be reminded that according to the Code on Access to Information, you must reply to my request within 10 calendar days. The response is now long overdue and the Police must respond to my ATI request immediately.

Further to my previous request, I would like to request for additional information regarding the Yuen Long attack on 21 July 2019 in accordance with the Code on Access to Information:

(d) There have been reports [1,2,3] suggesting that the Police may have colluded with the attackers and triad gangs in Yuen Long. Could the Police confirm or deny these allegations?
