【戰爭與人】79年前,香港佔領地總督部以「從事間諜活動」為名處決了33名的男女,他們多數被指控與英軍服務團人員合作或在赤柱拘留營擁有收音機。日軍在赤柱拘留營附近的海灘將他們處決,當時正被拘留的警官韋諾夫記錄道:
鑑於最近有傳言稱歐籍囚犯將被判處死刑,今天下午發生的一件事讓每個人都感到不安。…在下午2點左右,一輛懸掛著軍旗的淺棕色大囚車駛入監獄,裡面有三名日人…後面來了另一輛車。 … 幾分鐘後,大囚車離開監獄,三名印度警衛站在車後面的台階上。…緊隨其後的是兩輛車。 …當它慢慢地繞過監獄拐角時,它經過幾名被拘留者,他們聽到車裡傳來「再見」一語。我相信可能是傅利沙或斯科特……當車到達碼頭時,其他人看到大約30名囚犯,他們肯定其中有三個歐籍人士,被守衛押到刑場。
此帖顯示的文件曾張貼在赤柱拘留營,提到在此事件中被處決的七名被歐籍拘留者和另外四名被監禁者。被處決者包括 J. A. Fraser(防衛司,中文名傅利沙)、C. F. Hyde(滙豐銀行經理)、W. R. Scott(警務處副處長)、黃紹本(聖保羅書院副校長)、F. W. Bradley(醫務衛生督察)、D. W. Waterton 和 H. S. Rees(無線部人員)、Frederick Hall(連卡佛)和切斯特班尼特(Loxley)。如文件所述,被拘禁者不得為死者哀悼。

我們會在將來細說他們的故事。
[Faces of War] 79 years ago, the Japanese Occupation Government in Hong Kong executed 33 men and women for "espionage". The executed were charged with working with the British Army Aid Group or possessing a radio set in the Stanley Internment Camp. George Wright-Nooth of Hong Kong Police recorded their execution in his memoir:
In view of recent rumours about supposed sentences imposed on the European prisoners in gaol an incident which happened this afternoon has upset everybody. ... At about 2.00 pm a big, light brown car flying a military flag went into the gaol. It contained three Japanese civilians ... behind came another car. ... A few minutes later the big prison van left the prison with three Indian guards standing on the step at the rear . .. it was followed by the two cars. ... As it made its way slowly along the road to get round the prison corner it passed a few internees who heard a European voice from the van call, 'Good-bye'. I believe it may have been Fraser or Scott... When the van arrived at the wharf other people saw about thirty prisoners, and what they swear to be three Europeans amongst them, being marched by guards along the short distance to the execution ground.
The document shown here is a notice posted at the Stanley Internment Camp about the execution of seven internees and the imprisonment of four others in this incident. Those that were executed include J. A. Fraser (Defence Secretary), C. F. Hyde (manager of the Hongkong Bank), W. R. Scott (Deputy Commissioner of Police), Preston Wong (St. Paul's College), F. W. Bradley (health inspector), D. W. Waterton and H. S. Rees (Wireless Department), Frederick Hall (Lane Crawford's) and Chester Bennett (Loxley's). As stated in the document, the internees were not allowed to mourn the dead.
The names of the victims (their age in brackets) can be found in the Chinese text above. Their stories will be discussed in the future posts.
