A closely watched trial involving 13 people who stormed Hong Kong's legislature during pro-democracy protests in 2019 began on Monday with seven people pleading guilty to a rioting charge.
On July 1 that year, hundreds of protesters stormed Hong Kong's Legislative Council building after a protest march against a proposed extradition bill that would have allowed authorities to send individuals to mainland China for trial.
"I have never regretted fighting for freedom, justice, and democracy from the beginning to the end," Suen wrote in a Facebook post before the trial began.Six people pleaded not guilty, including actor Gregory Wong, and two reporters Wong Ka-ho and Ma Kai Chung. These six face additional charges of unlawful entry into the legislature and criminal damage which carries a maximum life sentence."There is an end to all good and bad things," Wong told reporters outside the court.
