Members of the League of Social Democrats carrying a banner are surrounded by police outside a court as the trial began of 47 pro-democracy figures charged under the National Security Law, in Hong Kong, February 6, 2023.
We updated our suite of graphics tracking the impact of Hong Kong’s National Security Law. It now includes information on the 248 individuals arrested between July 2020, when the law went into effect, and March 31, 2023. Information on these individuals’ cases, compiled by our partners at the Georgetown Center for Asian Law, includes grounds for arrest, and, where applicable, resulting charges and convictions.
This most recent update includes six individuals arrested for selling books about the 2019 protests at a book fair, and two individuals arrested for displaying a banner reading “Liberate Hong Kong, Revolution of Our Times” outside of their home.
