Profoundly disturbing @SCMPNews has absolutely no grounds whatsoever for threatening legal action against publications reporting disappearance of a reporter. Disgraceful@hkfp was just doing its duty, reporting news & showing professional concern for wellbeing of a journalist https://t.co/ssUqePRrCY

Outrageous @SCMPNews-led legal threats toward @hkfp simply for asking questions and reporting the alleged disappearance of a reporter.

Never seen a media outlet do this to its counterpart that is simply showing concerns over the wellbeing of its journalists. https://t.co/1fZyV0P9Nb

.@SCMPNews threatens legal action against @hkfp for asking questions about a missing SCMP journalist in China…second time the Beijing-friendly paper is threatening legal action to muffle criticism, last was over spiked Xinjiang coverage by Peter Langan https://t.co/RAUNouoxoL. https://t.co/ZIXoxXhHqD

SCMP journalist Minnie Chan reportedly missing.
— Tom Grundy (@tomgrundy) December 1, 2023
Staff at the paper told HKFP that managers had not been in touch about her whereabouts/welfare.
Our 4 calls to switchboard, 4 to corporate communications, emails & a voicemail to the PR & and China desk chief all went unanswered. https://t.co/0Lq0JpiqMI
Story now going global via AFP, Bloomberg, Al-Jazeera etc… No reply/notice to staff from SCMP. pic.twitter.com/wUIDgqujXt
