Lee also expressed concern about the government's plans to extend mandatory testing and the "restricted area" to other parts of Hong Kong, which will likely to obstruct more citizens.

Student Activists Get National Security Accusations, Anti-Gathering Fines from Police

1830 | Mong Kok

Police arrived at Student Politicism's street booth and displayed the purple warning flag, alleging them of violating the National Security Law. Using loudspeakers, they warned that citizens nearby are "participating in an unlawful assembly," and demanded them to leave. They also demanded reporters to "step aside".

Police later ticketed the three activists of the street booth with gathering ban (599G) tickets, claiming that since they chanted similar slogans, they were gathering for a common reason and thus violated the ban. The three were released after being ticketed.
