3 Hong Kongers Arrested for Not Standing or Turning During National Anthem, 2 Overseas Judges Resign

Reported about 1 year ago

The political situation in Hong Kong tightens as 3 Hong Kongers were arrested by the police on suspicion of insulting the national anthem of China by not standing or facing the field while it was played at a World Cup qualifier match. Additionally, 2 overseas judges resigned from the Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal due to 'political reasons'. The resignation of these judges is believed to be influenced by recent cases involving the Hong Kong version of the National Security Law, leading to concerns of judicial independence and the rule of law in Hong Kong.
