The former coach of champion Hong Kong hurdler Vera Lui Lai-yiu has been arrested after he was accused of sexually assaulting the athlete when she was a teenager.


The suspect was detained two months after Lui became the first high-profile woman in socially conservative Hong Kong to speak out against abuse as part of the #MeToo movement exposing sexual misconduct.

In an open letter posted on Facebook on her 23rd birthday in November Jahleel Addae Chargers Jersey , she accused her former coach of sexually assaulting her when she was a schoolgirl, prompting the city's leader Carrie Lam to ask police to investigate.


A 76-year-old man was arrested for "indecent assault" Sunday but has since been released on bail, police confirmed to AFP. Police declined to name him.


The #MeToo campaign spread rapidly in October after multiple accusations against Hollywood movie mogul Harvey Weinstein and has since shaken artistic, media and political circles globally.


Lui said she was inspired to speak out by American Olympic gold-winning gymnast McKayla Maroney, one of a number of women who accused former USA Gymnastic team doctor Lawrence Nassar of abusing them.


Nassar was last week sentenced to 40 to 175 years in jail for criminal sexual conduct.


Lui had previously recalled how she thought nothing of it when the coach offered her a massage at his home to relax her muscles Keenan Allen Chargers Jersey , but that he then removed her clothes and molested her.


She did not identify the perpetrator but the school attended by Lui at the time said they had immediately stopped working with the accused coach after she told them of her intention to publicise the incident.

Lui - who took the gold medal in the 60-metre women's hurdles at the Asian Indoor Games in September - said she decided to speak out a decade later in hopes of breaking the taboo around the subject in Chinese culture and encouraging other victims of sexual abuse to seek help.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 30 (Xinhua) -- U.S. President Donald Trump said in his first State of the Union address on Tuesday that he had signed an order to reexamine the U.S. military detention policy and to keep open the detention facilities at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba.


"In the past, we have foolishly released hundreds of dangerous terrorists Melvin Ingram Chargers Jersey , only to meet them again on the battlefield -- including the ISIS leader, al-Baghdadi," Trump said. "So today, I am keeping another promise."


"When possible, we annihilate them. When necessary Joey Bosa Chargers Jersey , we must be able to detain and question them. But we must be clear: Terrorists are not merely criminals. They are unlawful enemy combatants. And when captured overseas, they should be treated like the terrorists they are," he said.


Hundreds of detainees were transferred to sites in the United States or sent to their home countries under President Barack Obama, who failed to close the prison center.


Critics accused the center of having been plagued by crimes of torture.


SANYA, Sept. 25 (Xinhua) -- A Chinese naval flotilla Monday returned to a military port in the city of Sanya in southern China's Hainan Province after a military exercise with the Russian navy in the Baltic Sea.


The formation Melvin Gordon Chargers Jersey , comprising missile destroyer "Hefei," missile frigate "Yuncheng" and supply vessel "Luomahu," was the first Chinese fleet to ever sail in the region for a military exercise.

Such exercises show an open and confident Chinese navy, accumulating experience in long-term missions overseas.
