The National Security Division of the Hong Kong Police Force is investigating the alleged violation of the Hong Kong National Security Law or other Hong Kong laws by the 612 Fund. Hong Kong's "East Net" reported that it is reported that in the early days of the fund, it had received many large donations from Apple Daily, with a total of more than 1.3 million Hong Kong dollars.

According to the report, nearly 10 "black riot pushers" such as 5 "612 Fund" trustees and directors of the "Zhenpu Lian" company that provide fund custody and revenue and expenditure services for the fund have received a "material submission order" obtained by the police from the court, and they need to provide information on the operation of the organization and the flow of funds within the specified time limit, including the details of multiple crowdfunding, the details of account fund transactions, the information of donors, the details of donation purposes and support projects, the information of recipients and all relevant information related to the operation of the organization. In addition, the order requires the submission of details of organizations and persons who have contributed to the Fund.
"East Net" said that in the early days of the establishment of the "612 Fund", it repeatedly accepted many large donations from Apple Daily, and now Lai Zhiying and Next Media and other high-level executives are accused of colluding with foreign forces, and the donations handed over by Apple Daily to the "612 Fund" are quite suspicious, which may belong to "black money" and involve foreign funds to be handed over to the "612 Fund" through apple daily. In addition, the fund has collected nearly $70,000 in donations from the Yellow Dandelion Foundation, which was incorporated in the United States.
According to the report, the "612 Fund" trustees have a bad deed, wu Yiyi and He Xiulan are accused of organizing and participating in the unauthorized assembly held in Weiyuan on August 18, 2019, and were sentenced to suspended sentences and sentenced to 14 months in prison, but Wu Yiyi still presided over the suspension of the "612 Fund" and the final fundraising press conference. On July 11 last year, He Yunshi openly supported the so-called "primary election" proposed by the opposition for the Legislative Council election, and the "primary election" on the same day was the platform for Joshua Wong, Shum Aohui, Zhu Kaidi and other "speculators".
The "612 Fund" has been criticized by Hong Kong society for its long-term support for black riots, and the fund has previously announced that it will be suspended. The National Security Division of the police confirmed yesterday (1st) that an investigation is being launched into the "612 Black Riot Fund" for suspected violations of the Hong Kong National Security Law or other Hong Kong laws. According to Schedule VII to the Detailed Rules for the Implementation of Article 43 of the Hong Kong National Security Law, the Police may apply to the Court of First Instance of the High Court of Hong Kong for a "Materials Order" to require the person concerned to provide information related to the investigation of crimes endangering national security.
Tang Jiahua, a senior barrister who is a member of the Executive Council, said in a radio program on the 2nd that the police were approved by the court to issue a "material submission order", reflecting that the police must have some criminal evidence. He stressed that assisting or financing others to commit an offence could also constitute an offence.
The Secretary for Security, Mr Tang Ping-keung, had earlier said without naming names that the "612 Fund" was being investigated, and questioned whether it was "fishing for oil" by appealing to the public before the fund was dissolved.
