Hong Kong activists sentenced for inciting subversion under national security law

In Hong Kong, three activists were sentenced on September 11, 2026, for inciting subversion under a national security law. Lee Cheuk-yan and Chow Hang-tung received seven years and three months, while Albert Ho was sentenced to five years after pleading guilty. These activists organized annual vigils for the 1989 Tiananmen Square crackdown, which were banned in 2020. Their convictions reflect the ongoing suppression of dissent in Hong Kong.
