Hong Kong police have targeted the father of a pro-democracy activist living in Canada for questioning, according to local media. The B.C.-based democracy activist, Alan Keung Ka-wai, has been the subject of a $35,000 bounty by the Hong Kong police.

Keung’s father was questioned by Hong Kong authorities at the Tin Shui Wai Police Station on the morning of Aug. 13 to assist with an investigation, according to the South China Morning Post. Keung, who resides in B.C.’s Lower Mainland, is one of 19 overseas activists for whom Hong Kong issued arrest warrants last month.
