Jimmy Lai Photo: VCGJimmy Lai Chee-ying, Hong Kong s media tycoon and a notorious anti-government figure, together with six former lawmakers were found guilty of organizing and attending an unauthorized assembly in 2019.
The verdict shows the independence of the Hong Kong judiciary in being able to withstand pressure to make the right decision based on laws, and that major forces in Hong Kong are coming together to secure the region s stability instead of bowing to foreign intimidation and interference, observers said.
Lai was convicted on Thursday morning alongside six ex-lawmakers, including Martin Lee Chu-ming, another mastermind behind Hong Kong riots in 2019.
