In a statement responding to the piece, the HK gov says #JimmyLai chose solitary. Did he also request an overheated, windowless cell, 23 hrs/day lockdown & conditions the UN calls torture? info.gov.hk/gia/general/20…

#JimmyLai has spent 1,650+ days in detention in #HongKong under conditions the UN deems torture. @MarkLClifford in @WSJ warns: “Time is running out for Hong Kong to find a solution.” HK must release the #AppleDaily7 before further staining its rule of law. wsj.com/opinion/the-pe…

frances_hui's tweet card. As the 77-year-old publisher spends another summer in prison, Hong Kong should seek a way out of a situation that is increasingly dangerous for the city’s and China’s reputations.

It was great to attend ytd's @SenateForeign @SFRCdems hearing spotlighting #HongKong’s fight for freedoms, with powerful testimony from @OliviaEnos @SophieDRich @_joeysiu @caoilfhionnanna. Business is not as usual in HK—the US response must meet the gravity of what’s unfolding.

1/ Yesterday, the @SenateForeign @SFRCdems' subcommittee hosted a hearing on #HongKong’s democracy & human rights—five years after Beijing’s judicial takeover with witnesses @OliviaEnos, @_joeysiu, @SophieDRich & @caoilfhionnanna. A thread on the highlights⬇️

Grateful to @committeeonccp and @CmteOnCCPDems for this timely and rightful call. The U.S. must uphold accountability for Hong Kong authorities whose actions continue to erode the rights of Hongkongers and extend repression beyond their borders. @SecRubio @StateDept

Honored to have spoken at today’s Symposium on the 10th #709Crackdown, highlighting how Beijing’s Sinicization is eroding #HongKong's religious freedom. I called the US (@POTUS) & the Vatican (@Pontifex) to strengthen their responses to support religious communities in China & HK

We were honored to see Rep. Chris Smith join the second panel of today’s symposium, bringing critical attention to the CCP’s assault on religious freedom and the rule of law. His continued advocacy is a powerful voice for human rights.

Looks like #HongKong #JohnLee has misplaced his copy of the #MandelaRules, which set out prisoners’ rights on these issues, and of the #ICCPR.

#HongKong govt today proposes prison rule amendments, giving the correctional services dept (CSD) power to curb inmates’ legal, religious, comms & basic rights and allowing it to further isolate political prisoners on national security grounds. Here are 5 things you should know👇

Hong Kong authorities on Monday presented a proposal to lawmakers to tighten prison rules to restrict visits by lawyers, religious personnel and doctors on national security grounds, a move critics said would further undermine prisoner rights. reuters.com/world/china/ho…
