Tougher security measures for Hong Kong courts including enhanced mail inspection, extra police support after judges sent threatening letters


Hongkong Post will inspect all mail addressed to court buildings before delivery as part of stepped-up security measures, the judiciary has revealed as it expressed grave concern over a spate of attempts to intimidate judges.

The enhanced system was revealed as the postal service’s Cheung Sha Wan delivery office on Wednesday afternoon intercepted another suspicious letter from Taiwan containing what appeared to be meat that was bound for West Kowloon Court.
