Hong Kong Sentences 19 Year Old to Probation for 'Seditious' Toilet Graffiti The recent sentencing of a 19 year old to probation for writing "seditious" words on a toilet wall in Hong Kong has left many questioning the limits of free expression under the city's national security law.
Leung Kai lok, who suffers from autism spectrum disorder, was found guilty of acting with "seditious intention" and admitted to destroying property.
The case is not just about vandalism; it speaks to a broader pattern of repression in Hong Kong since the imposition of the national security law in 2020.
