BANGKOK - A Hong Kong pro-democracy activist and human rights lawyer was arrested for the second time in less than a month Wednesday, marking the city s first year under the national security law.
Chow Hang Tung, a vice chair for the nonprofit Hong Kong Alliance, was arrested for inciting illegal assembly, which was scheduled to take place July 1. She was also arrested June 4 for the same charge, according to Richard Tsoi, the group s secretary-general.
Anniversaries in Hong Kong are common this time of year. June 4 marks Beijing s crackdown on pro-democracy protesters in Tiananmen Square in 1989, while July 1 marks the anniversary of Hong Kong s handover from Britain to China, 24 years ago. July 1 also marks the 100th anniversary of the Chinese Communist Party.
