Two years ago today, #HongKong’s #AppleDaily announced it was closing & its final issue was on June 24, 2021. Its six executives have now been in prison for 702 to 925 days each on #NSL charges of “conspiracy to collude with foreign forces” & #sedition. https://t.co/ASTe1SywHi
One #HongKonger was injured in the attack on his arm & neck. One of the assailants appeared at the #June12 rally earlier. He’s been identified as Gong Zheng, a Chinese student at the University of Southampton.
After the Southampton #June12 rally on the 11th, #HongKongers were attacked by suspected Chinese students at the University of Southampton. One assailant can be heard shouting in Mandarin, "Hong Kong belongs to China." The video was proudly posted by the assailants on WeChat.
I've also received msgs seeking help from young Hong Kong protestors with similar cases. @SuellaBraverman has to work more on protecting these persecuted individuals.
