The National Security Department of the Hong Kong Police has charged Hong Kong democracy activist Joshua Wong, who is still in prison, with “conspiracy to collude with a foreign or external force to endanger national security” under the National Security Law (NSL).
Wong was brought to the West Kowloon Magistrates’ Courts on the afternoon of June 6. The charge states that between July 1 and Nov. 23, 2020, he and others, including Nathan Law who is currently in exile in the UK, requested foreign or external institutions to impose sanctions on the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.
