#HongKong pro-democracy veteran Albert Ho has been arrested again and had his court bail ceased. Several media reported that he may contact Andrew Chiu's family in an attempt to send a message to the defendant-turn-witness in #NSL47 case.

The Witness documented the no. of days that the #NSL47 are on remand in custody where they await trials. Most of them have been in jail for >700 days for charges they have not been convicted of, while some released on bail continue to be watched in their daily lives.
The number continues to add up and the time in custody nearly has no foreseeable end. During this time, they were seen as no less than a criminal. Some were held in solitary confinement with questionable health conditions. They are #PoliticalPrisoners in #HongKong - just say it.
The gov wanted to put activists in jail to brake the movement's momentum. They did so by arresting all of them, knowing that they barely had sufficient proof to even begin with. So the prosecutor bade to keep them in custody to make time for investigation. And the court accepted.
Hardly any information is made public in the #NSL47 case. For those detained, there are restrictions on reporting bail proceedings. Those on bail are subject to stringent conditions: they can be arrested and detained again for so much as a post on social media. (THREAD)
The result: the #NSL47 have disappeared in plain sight. The public has no idea of the progress of the case against their own elected representatives.

The newest NPC decision over the HK electoral system = a material change in circumstance in which none of these primary runners would even go through the screening by Beijing to run in any future elections.

Their family home (a wooden hut) was burnt down & moved to a squatter area. He grew up w/o toys. A bowl of instant noodles to be shared among 3ppl as supper. His dad worked so hard as a taxi driver & finally be able to send him to Australia to pursue his study...
He studied hard to become a commercial pilot. Unfortunately his #father diagnosed w/colon cancer. The targeted therapy cost him $30k/month. He can afford it but this got him thinking, what abt other #HK ppl? He wants to do sth for #HongKong. He then become a #politician...
