A Hong Kong court on Thursday convicted two pro-democracy Tiananmen activists tried under Beijing's controversial national security law for "incitement to subversion."
Lee Cheuk-yan, 69, and Chow Hang-tung, 41, had organised candlelight vigils to mark Beijing's deadly 1989 Tiananmen crackdown. They were charged in 2021 and both pleaded not guilty.
They face a maximum prison term of 10 years and are expected to be sentenced at a later date.
What else do we know about the charges against the pro-democracy activists?
The pair "incited other persons to organise, plan, commit or participate in acts by unlawful means with a view to subverting the state power", a press summary handed out to reporters said.
