A leading pro-democracy activist who helped organise Hong Kong’s long-running vigil marking the 1989 Tiananmen Square crackdown told a court on Friday that her group’s call for “ending one-party rule” was aimed at democratic reform, not at dismantling the Chinese Communist Party.
Chow Hang-tung, 40, a former leader of the Hong Kong Alliance in Support of Patriotic Democratic Movements of China, made the argument during proceedings under the sweeping national security law that has largely silenced organised dissent in the city.
