Hong Kong police have confirmed they collected DNA samples from 10 people arrested over the new national security law on July 1

Hong Kong police have confirmed they collected DNA samples from 10 people arrested over the new national security law on July 1, sparking debate on whether this crosses the line in cases that are centered on protesting.

According to the ordinance, senior officers can authorize taking a non-intimate DNA sample from a detainee if they suspect the person has committed a serious offence and the evidence will be instrumental to determine guilt. If the suspect does not consent, officers can use force to collect it.

Taking genetic samples from suspects is most commonly used to investigate offences far more serious, according to a lawyer for several of the detained.
