May 21, 2021 08:11:09 am The Hong Kong Court of First Instance denied a bid on Thursday for a jury trial by the first person charged under the country’s new security law, Tong Ying Kit. The court found that a trial in front of a jury is not a constitutional right and that decision from a panel of judges will not be different compared to a panel of juries. Tong Ying Kit was charged under sections 20, 21 and 24 of the New Security Law for “incitement to secession” and “terrorist activities” after he rammed his motorcycle into several riot police officers. Tong has been in custody since last July along with 300 other protesting activists. The common charges these activists are facing are in relation to chanting protest slogans or publishing protest material online, which the Hong Kong government deems to be actions of insurrection.
