NewzA Hong Kong court convicted two pro-democracy activists on Friday of incitement to subversion under the city's national security law. The individuals were found guilty for their roles in organizing annual vigils intended to commemorate the 1989 Tiananmen Square crackdown in China.
The ruling marks a significant development in the ongoing legal actions against organizers of the memorial events, which were once a staple of Hong Kong's political calendar. The conviction reflects the broader application of national security legislation to suppress activities previously permitted in the territory.
