Hong Kong national security police have questioned the family of pro-democracy activist Nathan Law. According to local media reports, Law’s elder brother, Nathan Law Ho-ching, and his parents were questioned at their home in Hong Kong.
The reason for the questioning was not disclosed by the police, but it is likely connected to Law’s activism.
Nathan Law, a former pro-democracy lawmaker, fled Hong Kong in 2020 following the implementation of the national security law. Nathan Law currently resides in the United Kingdom as an exile. To incentivize his capture, authorities have offered a HK$1 million bounty for information leading to his arrest.
The questioning of Law’s family represents the authorities’ continued efforts to suppress pro-democracy activists in Hong Kong.
In recent months, dozens of activists have been arrested and charged with national security offenses. These actions have been strongly criticized by human rights groups, who argue that they aim to stifle dissent.
This development serves as a stark reminder of the risks faced by activists and their families in Hong Kong. It also indicates that the authorities remain resolute in their campaign to suppress dissenting voices.
