Agnes Chow Released on Bail: Hope HKgers Can Persist
2315 | Tai Po Police Station
Agnes Chow stated that she was released on bail of HKD$180,000 as surety and HKD$20,000 in cash. She needs to report to Police station on September 1 and her passport has been confiscated.
She reckoned that the police arrested her on speech crimes, which is absurd and an act of political suppression. She said that police searched every corner of her house without specifically pointing out the reasons of her arrest. The police also failed to indicate which post Chow made on the social media was connected to the allegations.
Despite being arrested 4 times, she said she felt the most scared this time. Thanks to the support she received from many Hongkongers, she hopes that everyone will persist.

Despite raided by 200 police with multiple arrests including the founder and the head of the company, Next Media persisted to publish their newspaper Apple Daily as usual on August 11, 2020.

He hoped Apple Daily could stand until the end, “I hope you [Next Media] can persist. As the largest 'yellow' media, it will be sad that we lose you. I hope you can stand until the end and Hongkongers will walk with you.”
