| Subject: Hong Kong's oppressive security law: Four students arrested for 'inciting secession' Thu Jul 30, 2020 12:57 am | |
| Four students have been arrested in Hong Kong in the first police operation to enforce China's new national security law for the territory.
The four were detained for "inciting secession" on social media after the new law began on 1 July, police said.
A pro-independence group said those arrested included its former leader, Tony Chung.
Beijing's controversial new law criminalises subversion, secession and collusion with foreign forces.
Previous arrests under the new law have been made for slogans and banners at protests.
