黎智英案｜控方結案：各被告串謀勾結外國 毋須證《國安法》後有新協議 提出「請求」已屬犯罪
Apple Daily founder Jimmy Lai is charged with “conspiracy to collude with foreign forces” and other offences. Closing submissions in the case, originally scheduled to begin last week, were postponed because of a black rainstorm and Lai’s heart palpitations. They began on Monday (18th) on the 148th day of the trial at the West Kowloon Magistrates’ Courts, which is temporarily serving as the High Court. Lai appeared wearing an electrocardiogram monitor, while a member of the public was warned after waving to him before the hearing.
The prosecution said in its closing submissions that the defendants had continued colluding with foreign countries after the National Security Law took effect, amounting to a conspiracy to commit an offence. It said the prosecution did not need to prove that the defendants had full knowledge of the agreement’s contents, only that the parties had acted in accordance with the agreement. In response to the defence’s dispute over the wording of the collusion offence, the prosecution said making a “request” constituted an offence, and it was not necessary to prove that the request had been received by the other party. It also said that the targets of sanctions were not limited to countries and included officials.
The defence cited remarks by Zhang Xiaoming, former director of the Liaison Office, as evidence that collusion required a secret agreement. The prosecution cited the same remarks in court to argue that it was not necessary to prove the existence of an agreement. Judge Lee Wan-tang questioned whether Zhang, who was not a drafter of the National Security Law, could have his comments used to interpret its provisions. The trial will continue on Tuesday (19th).
壹傳媒創辦人黎智英被控「串謀勾結外國勢力」等罪，案件原定上周開始結案陳詞，惟因黑雨及黎出現心悸，押後至周一（18 日）在西九龍裁判法院（暫代高等法院）展開第 148 日審訊。黎智英配戴心電圖監測儀應訊，開庭前有旁聽人士向黎揮手遭警告。
控方結案陳詞指，案中被告在《國安法》後持續勾結外國，屬串謀犯案，而控方毋須證被告全盤知道協議內容，只須證明各方依循協議行事。至於辯方爭議勾結罪的字眼，控方指提出「請求」已構成犯罪，毋須證明獲對方接收，而「制裁」對象不限於國家，亦包括官員。
就辯方引前中聯辦主任張曉明發言，指可證「勾結」須有秘密協議。控方庭上引用同一發言，反指「勾結」毋須證明協議存在。法官李運騰關注，張並非《國安法》起草者，質疑其說法能否用作詮釋條文。案件周二（19 日）續審。

黎智英案｜辯方指黎心悸 申毋須出席結案陳詞 官押至8.18讓黎戴心電圖監測儀應訊
Apple Daily founder Jimmy Lai is charged with “conspiracy to collude with foreign forces” and other offences. The case has been on trial for more than a year and a half since proceedings began at the end of 2023. The prosecution and defence previously completed their evidence. After a recess of about five months, the 147th day of the trial was originally scheduled to begin on Thursday (the 14th) at the West Kowloon Magistrates’ Courts, which is temporarily serving as the High Court, with both sides making their closing submissions. The hearing was postponed until Friday because of the black rainstorm. More than 50 people queued outside the court in the morning. One member of the public attending the hearing said Lai had been remanded for more than four years, expressed concern about his health and hoped to enter the courtroom to show support.
The defence applied for Lai not to attend during the closing submissions and disclosed that he had experienced palpitations, saying that “on several occasions he felt he was about to break down”. The judge said the court was concerned about Lai’s physical condition, but defendants are generally required to attend their trials. The court could make arrangements if Lai was willing to wear an ambulatory electrocardiogram monitor in accordance with his doctor’s instructions. The prosecution said the relevant medical device could only be arranged the following week. The judge ultimately adjourned the hearing until Monday (the 18th).

香港議會案｜姜嘉偉被指涉顛覆國家政權罪 父被國安警帶走助查
The Police Force’s National Security Department last month wanted 19 people allegedly involved in organising the “Hong Kong Parliament”, including Keung Ka Wai, founder of the Hong Kong Democratic Nation-Building Alliance. It is understood that national security police took Keung Ka Wai’s biological father to Tin Shui Wai Police Station today to assist in an investigation. The man left the police station at noon. In addition, Keung Ka Wai’s father, Keung Wing-tai, published a statement in a newspaper last Thursday (the 7th), saying that he, his wife, Tsoi Yin-yu, and their son, Keung Ka-chun, “hereby declare that we have severed our family relationship with our son Keung Ka Wai. From now on, any disputes or entanglements involving Keung Ka Wai, whether Chinese or foreign, have nothing to do with us, effective immediately.”

支聯會被指煽動顛覆案｜何俊仁改擬認罪 控辯商討案情撮要 案件11月開始處理
The case in which the Hong Kong Alliance in Support of Patriotic Democratic Movements of China and its former chair and vice-chair, Lee Cheuk-yan, Albert Ho Chun-yan and Chow Hang-tung, are charged with “inciting subversion of state power” was heard at the High Court on Monday (11th) for its second pre-trial review. The defence confirmed that Albert Ho would change his intended plea to guilty and said it had received the prosecution’s first draft of the statement of facts, which it was reviewing. It estimated that there was little likelihood of a Newton hearing (a Legal 101 article) being needed to dispute the facts of the case.
Judge Li Wan-tang said the case would be dealt with at the West Kowloon Magistrates’ Courts in November this year as previously scheduled, with 75 days set aside, spanning Christmas and the Lunar New Year. He also said Chow Hang-tung’s applications would be dealt with first to determine “how the trial will proceed, or whether it will proceed at all”. Records show that Chow had earlier applied to have the indictment quashed, among other applications.
Albert Ho was arrested and remanded in 2021 and was granted bail for about seven months before being remanded again after allegedly breaching the conditions. He has now been in custody for more than 1,200 days. Lee Cheuk-yan and Chow Hang-tung have remained in custody throughout and have now been detained for more than 1,400 days.
支聯會及其前正副主席李卓人、何俊仁、鄒幸彤被控「煽動顛覆國家政權」案，周一（11 日）在高院召開第二次審前覆核。辯方確認何俊仁將改為擬認罪，並指已收到控方草擬的案情撮要初稿，辯方正檢視，估計需要召開紐頓聆訊（法律 101 文章）爭議案情的機會不大。
法官李運騰指案件將如早前所定，今年 11 月在西九龍裁判法院處理，預留 75 天，橫跨聖誕及農曆新年，又指會先處理鄒幸彤的申請，決定審訊「會如何進行，或者會唔會進行」。翻查資料，鄒早前提出「撤銷公訴書」等申請。
何俊仁自 2021 年被捕、還押，一度獲准保釋約 7 個月，其後被指違反條件遭重新收押，至今還押逾 1,200 天。李卓人、鄒幸彤則一直還押，至今逾 1,400 天。

黃之鋒被控串謀勾結外國勢力 擬於高院審理 押後至9.5訊作交付程序
Joshua Wong, who is serving a sentence at Stanley Prison over the primary election case, was arrested again by the Police National Security Department in June this year. He was accused of requesting foreign sanctions together with Nathan Law and others between July and November 2020, allegedly in violation of Article 29(2) and (4) of the Hong Kong National Security Law, concerning the offence of “conspiracy with a foreign country or with external elements to endanger national security”, and Section 25 of the Organised and Serious Crimes Ordinance, concerning money laundering. Wong has been charged with one count of conspiracy with a foreign country or with external elements to endanger national security. The case was brought before the West Kowloon Magistrates’ Courts again today (8th). Wong was not required to enter a plea at this stage. The prosecution applied for the case to be adjourned to 5 September for committal proceedings. Wong’s counsel confirmed that there was no objection to the adjournment and that no bail application would be made. National Security Law-designated judge and Chief Magistrate So Wai-tak told Wong that his case would be heard in the Court of First Instance of the High Court, and adjourned it to 5 September for a hearing for committal proceedings. As no bail application was made, Wong was remanded in custody. After the hearing, court observers called out to Wong, saying, “Stay strong!” and “Take care.” Wong also waved to the observers before entering the cell.

青年被控中港城男廁寫煽動字句 高院准保釋、父接離開 外出須父或母陪伴
An 18-year-old man was accused of writing seditious words on three occasions in a men’s toilet at China Hong Kong City in Tsim Sha Tsui in July this year. He was charged with one count of sedition and three counts of criminal damage, and remanded in custody pending trial. He applied for bail at the High Court on Thursday (31st) and was granted bail.
In the judgment, High Court judge Susana Maria D'Almada Remedios disclosed that the defendant had just completed his DSE examinations this year. The defence submitted letters from, among others, a secondary-school social worker, confirming that he had been advised several years ago to undergo a psychiatric assessment. It said his background indicated that it was extremely unlikely he would continue to engage in acts endangering national security. The Department of Justice opposed bail, arguing that the evidence in the case was strong and that, as the defendant intended to seek help from a psychiatrist, he should be remanded in custody for his protection.
After hearing the submissions, the judge said there were sufficient grounds to believe that the defendant would not continue to engage in acts endangering national security, based on the commitments by the defendant and his family to seek medical treatment and compliance with multiple conditions. The judge also rejected the Department of Justice’s argument that the defendant should be remanded for his protection and granted bail. The defendant’s mother wept when she heard the decision in court, and the defendant left the court in the afternoon accompanied by his father.
18 歲青年被指今年 7 月，三度於尖沙咀中港城男洗手間內，寫上煽動字句，被控一項煽動罪及 3 項「刑事毀壞」罪，還押候訊。他周四（31 日）在高等法院申請保釋，獲得批准。
高院法官李素蘭在判詞透露，被告今年剛完成 DSE 考試，辯方呈交中學社工等信件，確認數年前曾建議他接受精神科評估，指其背景反映極不可能繼續做出危害國安行為；律政司一方則反對，指本案證據強而有力，而被告有意尋求精神科醫生協助，出於保護應將其收押。
法官聽取陳詞後指，基於被告及家人承諾求醫，以及遵受多項條件，有充足理由相信其不會繼續做出危害國安行為，亦不接納律政司指為保護被告應將其還押，遂批准保釋。被告母親庭上聞訊落淚，而被告下午由父親陪伴一同離開法院。
