HONG KONG – Saturday marked one month since Hong Kong’s pro-democracy newspaper Apple Daily ceased operations after 26 years in circulation, as concerns linger about the future of press freedom in the territory.
Known for its pro-democratic stance and fearless criticism of the Chinese Communist Party, Apple Daily was forced to shut down after the Hong Kong government froze its assets.
The outspoken newspaper had faced mounting pressure from Chinese and Hong Kong authorities after its founder, Jimmy Lai, was arrested under the national security law, which criminalizes acts of alleged secession, subversion, terrorism and collusion with foreign forces.
Lai is currently serving a 14-month jail sentence for his involvement in the 2019 pro-democracy protests and faces additional charges of conspiracy to collude with foreign powers and conspiracy to pervert justice for allegedly helping fugitives flee to Taiwan last year.
