Hong Kong's Stand News editors and owner convicted of sedition
HONG KONG -- A Hong Kong court on Thursday convicted two former senior editors and the owner of the folded pro-democratic online news outlet Stand News.
Former Editor-in-Chief Chung Pui-kuen and acting chief editor Patrick Lam, along with the publication's owner, Best Pencil (Hong Kong), had been charged under a colonial-era law with publishing "seditious material."
