In the past two days, there have been two cases in Hong Kong:

01

Let's start with the robbery.

Yesterday at noon, 5 masked people got out of the car, all dressed in black!

And the tools they carry in their hands are: ...

At that time, there were many passers-by on the road, and when they saw such a large formation, they immediately rushed to avoid it, because passers-by understood:

"These 5 masked men in black are obviously trying to rob!"

Indeed, after getting out of the car, the bandits immediately rushed into the watch and jewelry store "Celebrity Station"!

A female clerk standing outside the store was stunned when she saw this scene, and kept patting her heart to calm down.

After the bandits broke into the jewelry store, they immediately pointed out that the staff was scared to the point of shrinking!

However, less than 10 seconds later,

The police quickly drew their guns and shouted to the bandits to their knees, and finally!

After investigation, the five arrested persons were aged between 22 and 35, one of them held Hong Kong identity cards, two held street paper, and two entered the country illegally.

If you often pay attention to Hong Kong news, it is not difficult to find: many robberies in Hong Kong!

As for the reason, you can check it: Hello, robbery!! A watch store in Hong Kong was robbed and lost tens of millions!

In addition, some netizens paid attention to a detail:

Hong Kong police, how can they act so fast!

The gangsters had just stormed the store when the police came?

It turned out that the police received a tip early in the morning and were near the relevant store, so they could quickly "catch the turtle in the urn"!

However, in fact, the efficiency of the Hong Kong police has always been very high, which comes from the clear and specific policing regulations!

For example, the Police Force strives to answer every 999 call.

If you don't arrive, explain to your superiors!

In addition, taking a step back, even if there is no ambush, the bandits will not escape justice!

Because there is a "Sky Eye" () near the entrance of the jewelry store!

In other words, every move of the gangsters is under the surveillance of the "Sky Eye", even if the police fail to deploy in advance, they can follow the vine with the live video afterwards!

Also in Tsim Sha Tsui, a woman was killed the day before yesterday.

Through the investigation of "Sky Eye", the police found that the black private car was a fake license car, and a gray private car next to it was also suspicious.

The two cars drove to Tsing Yi together, and the victim was taken to a flat and confined to a unit.

Police yesterday conducted an enforcement operation to rescue the victims, and three persons were arrested. It is reported that!

The reason why these two cases were quickly solved is because the police are loyal, brave and professional!

Hong Kong Sky Eye: Increase the rate of solving crimes!

Without the "Sky Eye", it would be much more difficult for the police to solve the case;

On 27 April, Commissioner of Police Siu Chak-yee said that he had assisted in solving two serious cases, including possession of imitation firearms and firearms and a robbery case, both of which were detected within 24 hours.

This year, another 600 groups will be installed at crime black spots in various districts!

As to whether more CCTV should be installed in Hong Kong in the long run.

However, when installing SkyEye, there is one topic that has to be avoided:

Citizens' right to privacy!

So, in Hong Kong, which has always focused on privacy, how can the Hong Kong government strike a balance between the installation of so much surveillance?

The police pointed out that they would strictly abide by the relevant laws, and that Sky Eye would only be installed in government buildings or lampposts, and the camera would only be filmed in public places. Combine.

For the police to install the Sky Eye, public opinion is also quite positive for the time being, and there is no large-scale opposition.

However, the plan to install surveillance in Hong Kong can go so smoothly!

Looking back at the black storm years in 2019, the smart lampposts used to build smart cities were once targeted.

Not a "flat" installation plan

During the Kwun Tong District Parade held on the afternoon of August 24 that year, when the demonstrators passed through Kowloon Bay, they sawed open the electrical box of the smart lamppost with a chainsaw and pulled down the lamppost with a rope!

Some people even sprayed the words "don't monitor" on the column body with black spray paint,!

According to the Hong Kong government, the smart lamppost is not equipped with face recognition function, and the accessory is a Bluetooth signal mark, which is only used to issue the geographical location of the lamppost, and there is no data collection or backhaul function.

However.

Fortunately, in recent years, Hong Kong has gone from chaos to order, and the police's interrogation work has also been greatly improved, and those with ulterior motives are not as easy as in the past to wantonly smear people.

Surveillance: Crime Prevention and Crime Fighting!

Taking a step back, the purpose of installing CCTV is to prevent and extinguish crime!

Since the 90s of the last century, 7.3 million CCTV have been installed in the UK, and more than 800,000 in London, which has a population of more than 9 million.

With the successful installation of more and more monitoring, Xiaobian believes that:

The Hong Kong government will balance the interests of personal privacy and social security.

In 2023, the total number of crimes in Hong Kong is 90,276, an increase of 28.9% from 70,048 in 2022!

But!

In 2023, the number of some traditional crimes is relatively low, while the detection rate is at a high level in many years!

Among them, 82.5% and 48.4% respectively; The detection rate of burglary was the second highest on record at 37.4 per cent. Some serious crimes that have received great attention from the society have been quickly solved by the police!

I believe that with the "blessing" of monitoring,!
