I've rarely if ever heard of police parding around suspects for "impromptu" questioning at multiple locations in front of throngs of press people. Is this a common tactic of the Hong Kong police force or just a publicity stunt they use in high-profile cases like this one? It seems fishy, but not unlike something you'd see in a Hong Kong cop movie!
