The former Chief Executive CY Leung has denied writing letters to British politicians, warning them to tone down comments on the protests here, or face the consequences.

Writing on his Facebook page, Leung denied a report in The Daily Mail newspaper which said letters signed by him were sent to politicians who'd spoken about the protests in Hong Kong.

The paper said the letter indicated that, if politicians agitated matters further, the Chinese government would elaborate further with regards to future consequences.

Leung – a vice chairman of the National Committee of China's top advisory board, the CPPCC – said he reserved the right to take action against the Daily Mail and relevant politicians.
