Three more Hongkongers have been accused of sedition over children’s cartoon books featuring sheep and denied bail.
Sidney Ng Hau-yi, 28, Samuel Chan Yuen-sum, 25, and Fong Tsz-ho, 26, were among those who appeared at West Kowloon Magistrates’ Courts on Monday in front of Principal Magistrate Peter Law after they were informed by police that their bail had been revoked.
They are among a group of five members of the General Union of Hong Kong Speech Therapists arrested last month by national security police.
The union chairperson Lai Man-ling, 26, and deputy chair Melody Yeung Yat-yee, 27, appeared in court last month and were remanded in custody. The other three were originally granted bail but have now been charged and had their bail revoked.
Lai and Yeung’s bail applications on Monday were also denied.
The group are accused of conspiring to “print, publish, distribute, display and/or reproduce seditious publications.”
