#Court #PoliticalProsecution
Two more pro-democracy activists plead guilty in National Security Case in Hong Kong

Pro-democracy activist, #AndyLi Yu-hin, one of the 12 Hongkongers detained in China and a member of “Hong Kong Story”, pleaded guilty on August 19, 2021 to "conspiracy to collude with foreign forces", in a national security case linked to media tycoon and #AppleDaily founder #JimmyLai.

Another Hong Kong activist #ChanTszWah also admitted to "colluding" with Lai and others to "ask foreign forces to impose sanctions on Hong Kong or China" between July 2020 and February 2021.

Prosecutors alleged that Li and Chan were "core members of a political campaign led by Lai" which "called for international sanctions by organising rallies, publishing propaganda, and lobbying overseas politicians".

The prosecution claimed that Li and Chan had meetings with political figures from the US, the UK and Japan, including a senator who would run in the next U.S. presidential election. They were also accused of recommending a list of 144 Chinese and Hong Kong officials for international sanctions; and showing US officials 277 rounds of ammo fired by the Hong Kong police.

Andy Li was among the 12 Hong Kong people intercepted by the #CCP's Guangdong coast guard in August 2020 as they allegedly tried to flee Hong Kong by speedboat.
