Hong Kong vigil organisers convicted of incitement under security law
Two Hong Kong activists, Lee Cheuk-yan and Chow Hang-tung, were found guilty of incitement to subversion for organizing the annual Tiananmen vigil; sentencing is pending, while a third defendant, Albert Ho, has pleaded guilty. The verdict underscores Beijing’s tight control under the national security law and the ongoing crackdown on civil society in Hong Kong, drawing criticism from Amnesty International over the broad use of subversion charges.
