Hong Kong government has revoked the passports of six pro-democracy activists who sought refuge in the United Kingdom, labeling them as ‘lawless wanted criminals.’ The move is based on a national security law passed in March and comes amid the fifth anniversary of a violent clash between protesters and police during the 2019 pro-democracy demonstrations. The activists, including Nathan Law, Mung Siu-tat, and Simon Cheng, are accused of national security crimes such as incitement to secession and foreign collusion. The Hong Kong government claims the power to hold accused people accountable worldwide under this law. Authorities warn that individuals aiding the activists could face up to seven years in prison.
