Man charged with helping Hong Kong intelligence service dies

A man charged with assisting Hong Kong authorities with gathering intelligence in the United Kingdom has died in unexplained circumstances, British police said on Tuesday.

Trickett’s lawyer, Julian Hayes, said he was “shocked” at Tuesday’s news and was supporting Trickett’s family. He declined to comment because investigations were ongoing., saying they were the latest in a series of “groundless and slanderous” accusations that the UK government has levelled against China.

Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has said Britain is facing an increasingly dangerous future because of threats from an “axis of authoritarian states,” including Russia, China, Iran and North Korea.
