The global legal team of Jimmy Lai Chee-ying, founder of Next Media, who has been imprisoned for two years to date, proposed to meet with British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak urgently, hoping to discuss ways to ensure Lai’s release.
The British Prime Minister’s spokesperson confirmed on Jan. 10 that Lai’s legal team met with Anne-Marie Trevelyan, the Foreign Office’s Minister of State for Indo-Pacific Regional Affairs, saying that the Foreign Office has provided support for Lai for some time.
