Hong Kong's police raided two bookstores and arrested five people on suspicion of selling what they claimed to be “seditious” books in the latest sign of the city's widening crackdown on the publishing industry under its sweeping national security law.
Police said they searched two shops in Mong Kok, located in the city's bustling Kowloon district, and arrested five people for “displaying items with seditious intent” and “selling publications with seditious content”.
