Tong Ying-kit, 24, was found guilty of terrorism and inciting secession on Tuesday, becoming the first person convicted under Hong Kong's sweeping national security law.
The three-judge panel at the High Court found Tong guilty of driving his motorcycle into a group of police officers, injuring three, while carrying a large banner emblazoned with a popular anti-government protest slogan, on July 1, 2020, just a day after the national security law was imposed. Tong faces a maximum penalty of life imprisonment over the charges.More Related News
