Radio Station RTHK reported on July 27 that approximately 60 local residents appealed in front of China's Liaison Office and requested the release of a Hong Kong reporter's family members. Ms. Liang said that her mother and brother were arrested in Luzhou, Sichuan Province. She told reporter Clara Mack that their arrest was because of her work in NTDTV, an independent Chinese-language television station.
Ms. Liang: They don't have any excuse to take away my mother and brother, just because of the fact that I am a reporter. They exerted pressure on my father and asked him to tell me not to speak out. I think their arrests are related to my work, because I am a reporter in Hong Kong for NTDTV.
Mack: Where are your family members?
Liang: They are detained in Luzhou Detention Center.
Mack: After they were arrested, did you have any opportunity to visit them?
Liang: No. I didn't have any opportunity to see them. Even my father is not allowed to visit them.
Mack: Ms. Liang, what do you think about your family members' arrest?
Liang: I know that what I am doing is right. I think the only thing I can do is to speak out. It is the only way to rescue them.
