#HKGov is using every means to stop #JimmyLai from hiring Timothy Owen's as his attorney. If the government is doing something illegal, they simply don't allow people to hire their own lawyer.

UK Prime Minister, Rishi Sunak, said UK has the right to interfere according to the joint declaration referring to #JimmyLai's case.

Jan 16: day 10 of Jimmy Lai's trial. Defense disputes relevance of expert reports to national security charges, while prosecution argues no need to prove Lai's actions caused foreign sanctions. Judge approves expert reports, stating they aid understanding of US actions against Hong Kong and whether they constitute "sanctions, blockades, or other hostile actions" under the National Security Law. Trial continues with the testimony of an accomplice witness.

It seems that the prosecution lacks a direct witness to support their accusations. Instead, they have relied on expert reports to present their case. The absence of a witness raises questions about the strength of the prosecution's evidence.

那個風雨飄搖的晚上,數百員工在壹傳媒大樓內緊守崗位,齊心協力為《蘋果日報》寫下最終章。報導真相本來就是傳媒機構以至新聞工作者的職責,但政權卻以國安罪名以言入罪,大興文字獄。《蘋果》被迫停刊三年,壹傳媒創辦人黎智英與《蘋果》三間相關公司,被控「串謀勾結外國勢力」等三項罪名的案件目前仍在審訊中,而黎在囚已接近1,300日,其餘涉案六名資深新聞工作者則亦「未判先囚」超過1,000日。

對極權說真話要付出沉重的代價,但失去新聞自由,社會損害更大。當新聞工作者被迫害,傳媒被關閉,新聞自由成一紙空文,萬馬齊瘖的社會,公權力不受監督,最終還是人民受害。經過一千多天,有多少人已把牢獄中的他們淡忘﹖在無能為力的當下,記憶與遺忘的鬥爭,便是對抗極權的鬥爭。香港曾經有一份《蘋果日報》,我們沒有忘記,亦不會忘記!
