Pro-democracy activist arrested for violating bail conditions
On March 7, the Hong Kong police National Security Unit arrested Winnie Yu Wai-ming on suspicion of violating bail conditions, when she made comments online.
Yu, a nurse, is the founder and former chairwoman of the Hospital Authority Employees Alliance ā a union for healthcare workers known for its pro-democracy stance.
She is one of the 47 activists charged with conspiracy to subvert state power for partaking a primary legislative council election in 2020.
Yu was among the few who secured bail in July 2021 on stringent conditions that she refrains from all acts and speeches that could endanger national security, as well as from contacting foreign government officials and legislators.

47 democratsā subversion case adjourned to June 2022
//Hong Kongās high-profile subversion case involving 47 leading democrats has been adjourned to June 2022, days after a court judgement revealed at least 11 of them would plead guilty to the offence under the Beijing-imposed #NationalSecurityLaw.
Most of the group have been held in custody since their arrest in February last year and their cases have been repeatedly adjourned. Only 13 of them have been granted bail.
The democrats, accused of conspiracy to commit subversion, appeared before Principal Magistrate Peter Law on Thursday. The court is handling proceedings to commit them to the High Court, where the maximum penalty is life in prison.
Unlike previous hearings, the courtroom was relatively quiet when the democrats were escorted to the dock by corrections officers. Their family and friends, who took up most seats in the public gallery, only waved at the group and made hand gestures.
Court attendees have been less vocal since six people were arrested earlier this month under the colonial-era sedition law for allegedly causing nuisance during a hearing. One of the arrestees, citizen journalist Siew Yun-long ā better known as Siu Wan ā also attended Thursdayās hearing.//
