The products displaying the name 14K, which is also the name of a well-known Hong Kong triad group, have been confiscated, with police arresting and releasing almost 20 people in connection with the sales. G.O.D founder and CEO Douglas Young, said the raid impinges on the creativity of designers.
“For Hong Kong’s creative industries to blossom, artists and designers must be allowed more creative freedom. At the moment we are lagging behind many other advanced world cultures.”
The raid was carried out after coverage in the Chinese-language dailies.
