Ted Hui Chi-fung, a former member of the Legislative Council of Hong Kong who skipped bail and fled overseas, is wanted by the Hong Kong Police Force. He condemned the Hong Kong High Courts for not following the rule of law and for politically prosecuting him, and said that he would continue to speak up for Hong Kong’s right to freedom.
On June 2, the Hong Kong Court announced that Hui was guilty of contempt of court in absentia. Hui responded in social media, saying in Chinese and English that the authorities’ charges against him were “unfounded,” and that he despised the Hong Kong Court for deviating from the rule of law.
