Tsang was due to appear in court on Dec 22, 2020, but did not show up. On the same day, South China Morning Post and Apple Daily published their interview with him. In the interviews, he revealed that he was among the activists rejected by US consulate in Hong Kong earlier.
According to Apple Daily, Tsang without disclosing his current location has fled Hong Kong and sever contacts with his family and friends. Tsang said
he would not face a fair trial in Hong Kong and it was very likely that he would immediately be remanded into custody if he showed up.
"The national security law wasn’t there when I was arrested. But since the law was imposed, the repression is intensifying. The situation in Hong Kong is getting worse. I don’t think I can stay in Hong Kong,” Tsang said.
Tsang revealed that he was one of five protesters who had attempted to seek asylum at the US consulate in Hong Kong on October 27, 2020.
After they were turned down, Tsang was scared that the National Security Police were awaiting them, “Having sought help from the US consulate, I can now be charged with collusion with foreign forces under the national security law"
Tsang said it would be harder for him to stay in Hong Kong, "there is no turning back...I chose this path and I will walk on."
Tsang's girlfriend Aurora (alias), aged 15, revealed in an earlier interview that she was seeking asylum in the UK. Tsang has been worrying about her safety, "My situation puts her at risk. This is one of the reasons why I urgently need to leave. We have no other option but to separate for some time--at least one of us can stay safe. I miss her. I hope we can reunite soon in a place of freedom.”
