‘Publishing tycoon Jimmy Lai Chee-ying was jailed for 14 months on Friday in back-to-back sentencing for his role in two illegal protests during Hong Kong’s anti-government unrest in 2019, while four former opposition lawmakers who joined one or both demonstrations were also sent to prison.
Democratic Party founding chairman Martin Lee Chu-ming was given an 11-month suspended sentence for joining one of the protests, an unauthorised march on August 18, 2019, while veteran democrat and barrister Margaret Ng Ngoi-yee was also spared jail in a 12-month suspended sentence.
The jail sentences of eight to 18 months for five out of 10 opposition figures who appeared at West Kowloon Court marked the toughest punishments to date for Hong Kong’s most prominent pan-democratic politicians over the mass protests that rocked the city for a year.’https://www.scmp.com/news/hong-kong/law-and-crime/article/3129844/hong-kong-protests-jimmy-lai-jailed-one-year-over-2019?utm_medium=email&utm_source=mailchimp&utm_campaign=enlz-gme_national_security_law&utm_content=20210419&tpcc=enlz-national_security_law&MCUID=6ece799d24&MCCampaignID=5fca66c286&MCAccountID=7b1e9e7f8075914aba9cff17f&tc=1
