Castle Peak Bay Immigration Centre (CIC) is an immigration detention centre located in Tuen Mun, Hong Kong. 7,942 persons were held at CIC in 2015 who were slated for expulsion from Hong Kong.[1]

Notable events

In December 2019, an Indonesian migrant worker, author, and reporter Yuli Riswati, reported that she was strip-searched by a male doctor at CIC.[2] She noted that "Many friends who are still detained there at CIC are suffering – the conditions are inhumane and unjust."[3]
