1st LD Writethru: Post-fire attempts to destabilize Hong Kong will be punished: authorities


HONG KONG, Dec. 3 (Xinhua) -- The anti-China forces who attempt to exploit the deadly fire in the residential complex Wang Fuk Court to disrupt Hong Kong will be brought to justice, the Office for Safeguarding National Security of the Central People's Government in the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) said on Wednesday.

When help, support and donations from home and abroad poured into the HKSAR, the anti-China forces were exploiting the tragedy and fanning antagonism in cold blood, said a spokesperson for the office, adding that these acts trampled on social morality and inflicted more pain on those affected by the fire.
