The Hong Kong Bar Association and the Law Society of Hong Kong issued statements condemning fires that were set at two courthouses Sunday night during a mass anti-government demonstration, with several current and former global law firm partners signing on to one of the statements.
On Monday, the Hong Kong Bar Association issued a rare, strongly worded statement saying that it “deplores in the strongest possible terms the acts of arson and vandalism at the Court of Final Appeal and High Court buildings”.
