Hong Kong’s Chief Executive John Lee pledged a lifetime of police pursuit for eight democracy activists who fled abroad to evade national security charges, one day after authorities put a HK$1,000,000 ($127,650) bounty on each.
The first rewards to be issued in relation to security crimes were announced, along with arrest warrants, by chief superintendent Steve Li at a news conference Monday. They apply to former lawmakers Nathan Law, Dennis Kwok, and Ted Hui, lawyer Kevin Yam as well as activists Finn Lau, Anna Kwok, Elmer Yuan and unionist Mung Siu-tat.
