Three men, aged from 19 to 30 years, were arrested today for posting information online, inciting others to take part in road occupy, illegal assembly, and attack on police officers on October 1. Chief Inspector Tai Tze-bun of the Cyber Security and Technology Crime Bureau said the bureau has noticed since last year that many people posted information online to incite others to commit criminal offenses. The three suspects, a 30-year-old man and two 19-year-old students, were suspected of incitement to arson, incitement to commit public nuisance, and inciting others to take part in an unlawful assembly. Police said the investigation is still ongoing where the likelihood of further arrests is not excluded.
