A Hong Kong court ruled pro-democracy media mogul Jimmy Lai guilty of foreign collusion and seditious publication on Monday, in a case that has drawn condemnation from Western countries. Lai's legal team said they would study the ruling before taking further steps.

Media mogul Lai was arrested in 2020 under a national security law imposed by China.

A Hong Kong court is scheduled to deliver its verdict Monday in the national security case against media founder and former publisher Jimmy Lai.
