Long Hair was right! Christina Chan should have never sat down on January 1. About a week later, on January 9, our pretty attention seeker activist got arrested in connection with two separate cases of police assault. It’s alleged that one case is in relation to the happenings during the New Year’s Day march, when she and her fellow mavericks broke through police lines.

Because of her arrest, the city of Hong Kong discovered a certain police discussion forum, as Apple Daily wrote an interesting article about it recently. In a thread called “Sexy kitten Christina Chan arrested!”, a certain self-proclaimed former senior police officer, who’s also one of the forum administrators, commented as follows:

“If I were the interrogator, she would be in trouble: she’d possibly get a ‘BB’…”

We all know that there are countless BS forums in town, so you might wonder if we should give this a serious glance. But since Tony Liu, the president of the Hong Kong Police Inspectors’ Association is a special VIP of the forum (his smirking profile pic at the forum here), we can say for sure that this coppers’ forum is at least semi-official. So how about that “former senior police officer?” Those of you who are so proud of having exposed our brave TDS founders could potentially learn a thing or two from our local internet geeks. People on our popular HK Golden forum took less than 24 hours to dig out the identity of the man in question. Turns out he is a former anti-triad Senior Inspector of the Police called Lee Chi Fai (李志輝).

Lee was convicted and imprisoned for “perverting the course of justice.” What happened? The man simply showed style. Together with two other cops, they dragged a criminal into an alley and beat the shit out of the punk. Just another day in the life of a cop/villain in HK you’d say. Unfortunately, the entire torture interrogation was videotaped by a nearby CCTV, which is how our respectable inspector turned inmate.

The final question: what does that last phrase in that comment by Lee mean, “BB”? Normally, HK’ers who speak Cantonese would take it to mean that “Christina would be made pregnant”, as we say “BB” when we refer to infants. However, Lee offered an alternative interpretation. He said “BB” means “Bread and Butter.” He further added that inmates have “Bread and Butter” for breakfast. Sir, an excellent explanation! I mean, it’s not like police officers actually do intend to have sex at police stations right? Oh hang on..

So girls.. shit happens. Next time when you get arrested, make sure to have a condom or two with you. Just in case you’re not ready for some “Bread and Butter” yet.
