Frances Hui Wing-ting

Frances Hui Wing-ting is a Hong Kong activist based in the United States. She recently gained attention by posting an internal letter from Hong Kong's secretary for justice, Paul Lam Ting-kwok. This letter, which surfaced on Wednesday, expressed concerns about a possible leak of information from within the Department of Justice regarding allegations against the new public prosecutions director. Lam urged staff to come forward about the source of these allegations. The Hong Kong justice department has since rejected the online accusations as "despicable behaviour" aimed at defaming public officers and stated that the case has been referred to law enforcement for investigation. Hui's action in sharing the internal letter highlights her role in bringing internal departmental matters to public attention, particularly concerning the integrity of the justice system and potential leaks within government bodies.
