【突发】林鼎今早突被捕 代表律师抗议逮捕不公
人民之声党领袖林鼎律师，今早在位于珍珠大厦的办公处，为下周梁实轩对总理诽谤诉讼案做准备。不料在11时许，有三名商业事务局警员到场，将林鼎逮捕返警局协助调查。
本地维权律师拉维（M Ravi）在脸书更新信息，表示将充任林鼎的辩护律师。他表示，林鼎在被戴上手铐时一度抗议，并指这是有政治动机的逮捕。
目击者称，警方逮捕林鼎，相信和后者未如期出席一项与警方约谈有关，即使林鼎的律师早前已致函警方知会此事。
林鼎请拉维发出简短声明，并指有关调查事项，早已交民事法庭审理，拉维已致函警方，要求警方尊重法庭程序，并强调有关逮捕乃是非法的。
基于其中一项“刑事失信”（Criminal Breach of Trust）指控目前仍在法庭聆讯过程，林鼎不便对此发言。另一项指控则涉及骚扰前职员。
林鼎也代表时评人梁实轩，在总理的诽谤诉讼中辩护，有关诉讼原定下周（6日至10日）在法庭公堂聆审。
