Hong Kong activist arrested again for allegedly violating bail terms over acts, remarks that could endanger national security
- Owen Chow, on bail pending his subversion trial, was arrested when he reported back to North Point Police Station on Wednesday
- It is not immediately known what acts he had committed to endanger national security
Owen Chow Ka-shing, who was out on bail ahead of his subversion trial, was arrested when he reported back to North Point Police Station on Wednesday night, according to a brief post on his Facebook page on the same day.
Chow was told he had violated the bail conditions, and a video interview with police was being arranged, according to the post. A subsequent message said he would appear in West Kowloon Court on Thursday afternoon.
The Post learned that Chow was accused of making remarks and committing acts that could reasonably be regarded as endangering national security during his bail period.
It was not immediately known what he had actually done or what remarks he had made.
He would be detained overnight, and was likely to be brought before court on Thursday, a source confirmed to the Post.
