A Beijing-imposed national security law has also criminalised much dissent and most of the city's democracy leaders have been arrested, jailed or fled overseas.Chow, 24, was mobbed by waiting media but made no comment as she was driven away.
She spent some seven months behind bars for her role in a 2019 protest outside the city's police headquarters. Fellow youth activists Joshua Wong and Ivan Lam were sentenced in the same case.Two years ago on Jun 12, thousands of protesters surrounded the city's legislature in an attempt to stop the passage of a bill that could have allowed extraditions to mainland China's opaque judicial system.
They have since overseen a sweeping crackdown that has successfully curbed dissent and radically transformed the once outspoken semi-autonomous city.More than 100 people have been arrested under the new law, including Chow, although she has not yet been charged.Most have been denied bail and they face up to life in jail if convicted.
She coloured her hair in prison?

612hk , today also symbolizes that the gov has ignored the wishes of Hong Kong people for two full years. In June alone, at least 641 arrested persons needed legal support due to their arrests. May God bless AgnesChow 🙏🏼
