The Legislative Council of China's Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) on Thursday rejected the motion proposed by pan-democratic lawmakers to impeach Chief Executive Carrie Lam. A statement released by the Legislative Council said the motion failed to garner a majority of votes from functional constituencies. HKSAR Chief Secretary for Administration Cheung Kin-chung said that "the chief executive has done nothing illegal or [committed] dereliction of duty." "The impeachment motion is very serious and not a random political tool. Substantial evidence must be provided to prove that the chief executive has committed illegal acts," said Cheung. Cheung also urged the pan-democratic lawmakers to ensure the ceasing of all violent acts and let the city recover as soon as possible. |
