Hong Kong activist Joshua Wong jailed for 2019 ‘illegal assembly’

A court in Hong Kong has sentenced pro-democracy activist Joshua Wong to 13 and a half months in prison after he pleaded guilty to organising and inciting an unauthorised assembly outside a police station during mass protests against the government in June last year.

Wong’s longtime fellow activists Agnes Chow, 23, and Ivan Lam, 26, were also jailed on Wednesday for 10 and seven months, respectively, on charges linked to the same protest.
