Lam Yuen-yee MBG (Chinese: 林婉儀; 1984-2021) was a Chief Inspector of the Hong Kong Police Force Marine Region Small Boat Division.
[5] On 25 September 2021 at around 8 a.m., Lam was leading her team of four on a marine multi-mission interceptor to conduct a regular anti-smuggling operation in northwest waters of Hong Kong, near Chek Lap Kok International Airport.
[7] On 1 and 2 October 2021 the Guangdong authorities arrested two mainland Chinese men who are believed to have been on the speedboat that rammed the Hong Kong marine police vessel, causing the death of Lam.
Speaking in a Legislative Council meeting, Secretary of Security Chris Tang Ping-keung said there were eight members from the Hong Kong Disciplined Services who have been being suspended from their duties after they had mocked the death of Lam.
On 12 November 2021, a former Hong Kong police officer was arrested and charged with seditious intent over the online comments he allegedly made about Lam.
[8] Online production group HKGolden Music released a parody song entitled “Do not look for what fell into the sea” (Chinese: 墮海唔好搵) during the search for Lam.
The song, now removed by the group, contained lyrics including "they will float back up once you stop looking for them," and “a few people falling into the sea is no big deal."
