It’s even worse, they were trying to extradite the murdering creep back to Taiwan for trail, mainland China wasn’t even a factor in the case. But because there was no formal agreement between Hong Kong and Taiwan, when one was drafted that’s what sparked the riots since the extradition was a four way agreement between China, Taiwan, Macau, and Hong Kong.
Yeah because Hong Kong recognises Taiwan as part of China, it has to deal with Taiwan as if it’s governed by PRC law, while on the other hand HK has its own legal system under the ‘one country, two systems’ principle. So any extradition treaty between HK and Taiwan has to be between HK law and Mainland law.
