It was really just an surprise liquor license inspection.
On the other hand I had been caught in real raids whereby the cops rushed in to look for major unsavory characters. These were not the typical situations when the police politely ask the staff to turn on lights, ask patrons to be quiet so they can check some ids as most ppl had experienced in LKF and wanchai.
In one case the cops were shouting at this large group of ppl sitting at a corner booth. Shouting for a major dude to come out. Eventually after some back and forth shouting back by both parties, the guy came out. Hair-raising to say the least and to make it worse no one could leave the premises until cops cleared everyone.
On another time, I don't know what the police were looking for but they made the guys line up in one line to be questioned and searched by a male cop and the girls line up in a separate line to be questioned and searched by a female cop. I felt I was in a triads vs cops movie. I do admit I was in a pretty dodgy, local club in TST so this type of raid was kind of expected for the turf.
One thing to keep in mind, as long you are polite with the police and show an id (doesnt matter what type), the cops will not bother you. They are just there to look someone else (unless you a baddy) or something.
