Hong Kong Tiananmen Vigil Organisers Convicted of Subversion
Two former organisers of Hong Kong’s annual Tiananmen Square memorial vigils have been found guilty of inciting subversion. A panel of three government-appointed judges ruled that Lee Cheuk-yan and Chow Hang-tung encouraged others to take part in unlawful acts aimed at undermining state power. The verdict marks the latest legal action tied to the city’s stricter national security laws.
