Man jailed for 2 months in Hong Kong ride-hailing case, banned from driving for a year

A mainland Chinese visitor has been jailed for two months and disqualified from driving in Hong Kong for a year after he was found to have offered ride-hailing services without the required permit. Ye Hai, 41, on Wednesday admitted to offering paid rides using the online mapping service Amap on July 7, three days after he entered Hong Kong on a two-way permit. He pleaded guilty at Kowloon City Court to breaching his condition of stay, driving a motor vehicle for the carriage of passengers for hire or reward, and using a vehicle without third party insurance. The court heard Ye was arrested during a sting operation by police that targeted illegal hire-car services. Using a beige Toyota Prius he borrowed from his friend, Ye took an undercover officer from a private housing complex in Yau Ma Tei to a location in Sham Shui Po, before two other constables intercepted him at a nearby junction. The defence said Ye committed the offences out of his ignorance of the laws of Hong Kong.

Hong Kong activist's father denies security law breach over handling finances

The father of a wanted Hong Kong activist has denied handling his daughter's financial assets in breach of the domestic national security law. Advertisement Merchant Kwok Yin-sang, the father of US-based activist Anna Kwok Fung-yee, pleaded not guilty before West Kowloon Court on Wednesday. The 68-year-old defendant is the first person to be charged with a non-sedition-based offence under the Safeguarding National Security Ordinance, which was enacted in accordance with a requirement under Article 23 of the Basic Law, the city's mini-constitution. He is alleged to have breached a prohibition against handling an absconder's financial assets by trying to withdraw money from a life and personal accident insurance policy with AIA International under Anna Kwok's name. The offence carries a maximum jail sentence of seven years. The defendant is the father of Anna Kwok, who is among eight activists who had HK$1 million bounties placed on their heads in 2023 for allegedly violating the Beijing-decreed 2020 national security law.

Handling of teen bullying case sparks tension and arrests in southwestern Chinese city

The handling of a school bullying case by local authorities in a southwestern Chinese city has sparked outrage among locals, according to residents and mainland media, leading to police arrests for 'blocking traffic'. Chinese outlet posted a video on its social media account showing hundreds of people gathering inside a government building in Jiangyou, Sichuan province, on Monday to help the parents of a teenager who had been bullied at school negotiate with officials and express their dissatisfaction with the government's handling of the incident. The Public Security Bureau of Mianyang city, which administers Jiangyou, told the Guangzhou-based Yangcheng Evening News it had detained people who were 'blocking traffic and refusing to heed police warnings' on Monday. A staff member at the Mianyang Public Security Bureau told the South China Morning Post that the 'incidents in Jiangyou' were being handled by 'local police and government'. The Post has also contacted the Jiangyou police for comment. The residents' anger erupted after news went viral about a campus bullying case which locals believed was not dealt with fairly.
