| A card we sent to a detainee |
Twelve Hongkongers, including pro-democracy activists, were arrested on 23 August 2020 by the Chinese coast-guard for allegedly crossing the border in secret in a speedboat. Held incommunicado, without access to their family or lawyers of their choice, they are at imminent risk of torture and other ill-treatment. Four lawyers from mainland China that the detainees' families hired dropped the cases after they were threatened by authorities.
We wrote in support of the detainees. You can take action too.
