Hong Kong media tycoon Jimmy Lai and seven other activists were sentenced on Dec. 13 to jail terms ranging from four to 14 months for their respective roles in a banned Tiananmen Square vigil last year.
Lai, 72, the founder of the now-shuttered pro-democracy newspaper Apple Daily, is already serving a 20-month sentence for taking part in pro-democracy protests in 2019. The media mogul, who was separately convicted last week of inciting others to participate in an unauthorized assembly, was sentenced to a term of 13 months.
