HONG KONG: Hong Kong police on Monday accused eight overseas-based activists of serious national security offences, including foreign collusion and incitement to secession, and offered rewards for information leading to any arrest.
The accused are activists Nathan Law, Anna Kwok and Finn Lau, former lawmakers Dennis Kwok and Ted Hui, lawyer and legal scholar Kevin Yam, unionist Mung Siu-tat, and online commentator Yuan Gong-yi, police told a press conference.
“They have encouraged sanctions ... to destroy Hong Kong and to intimidate officials,” Steve Li, an officer with the national security department, told reporters.
