Edward Yum (任亮憲) is a member of the Hong Kong pro-democracy camp People Power. He is the son of former Legislative Council member Yum Sin-ling, who once held a pro-Kuomintang party in Hong Kong called the 123 Democratic Alliance.[1]
Career
Yum is best known for his participation at the Victoria Park, City Forum. He is known for shouting at pro-establishment figures, which earned him the nickname "Big brother of Victoria park".[2] He has also been called the Grass Mud Horse.[3]
Controversy
License issue
Questions have been raised about Yum being described as a licensed Securities and Futures Commission representative when his permit was expired. In both iMoney magazine and the League of Social Democrats website, he has been described as a representative.[2]
Sex scandal accusations
In mid December 2010 a 29-year old woman in Sha Tin accused Yum of rape and indecent assault.[4] After the first arrest Yum considered suing a local newspaper and a woman for their comments since this arrest.[3] On 20 December 2010 a 19-year old teenager girl in Central filed a police report against Yum for sexual assault.[5] According to the report this came after she met him on 21 June at Lei King Wan Sai Wan Ho.[5] This also came at a time after 30 pan-democrats resigned over the dissatisfaction with a leadership meeting with Beijing.[5][6] The group was extremely fragmented with internal political issues. By May 2011 Yum was released by the HK police due to complete lack of evidence.[7]
