Chow Kim-ho, a former member of pro-democracy party League of Social Democrats, has been held in custody since his arrest last November.
A man charged with sedition under Hong Kong’s homegrown security law has had his case adjourned again to May, as a top court verdict that the defence says could inform how his client pleads has still not been delivered
Wearing a black windbreaker, Chow Kim-ho appeared at the West Kowloon Magistrates’ Court on Thursday. His supporters, including pro-democracy party League of Social Democrats (LSD) activist Tsang Kin-shing, waved at him as he entered the court room.
