One senior Hong Kong citizen who played the familiar protest song “Glory to Hong Kong” on the street earlier was charged by police with “playing an instrument without a licence.”

The case was heard on Aug. 22 at the West Kowloon Magistrates’ Court. The old man denied the charges. The magistrate finally ruled that a “no prima facie” case and charge cannot be established. The defendant said after the court hearing that “truth is on our side.”
