Hong Kong court convicts former Tiananmen vigil organizers of subversion

A Hong Kong court has convicted key members of the now-disbanded Hong Kong Alliance in Support of Patriotic Democratic Movements of China for inciting subversion under the National Security Law. This ruling effectively criminalizes the legacy of the annual June 4th vigils, marking a definitive end to public commemoration of the 1989 crackdown in the territory. The verdict underscores the ongoing consolidation of Beijing's legal control over Hong Kong's civil society.
