HONG KONG: Hong Kong activist Joshua Wong will plead guilty in the city’s biggest national security case, local media reported, after being detained for more than a year without a trial date under the China-drafted law.
The already jailed former student leader is among 29 democracy advocates expected to enter guilty pleas over subversion charges linked to a primary election held in July 2020, according to local media outlets including HK01. Former law professor Benny Tai, protest organiser Jimmy Sham, and ex-lawmaker Claudia Mo were among those expected to accept the charge.
