Hong Kong court jails 45 democracy campaigners in landmark trial 45 ex-lawmakers and activists were sentenced to four to 10 years in prison Tuesday in Hong Kong’s biggest national security case under a Beijing-imposed law that crushed a once-thriving pro-democracy movement. Legal scholar Benny Tai, whom the judges called the mastermind, received the longest sentence of 10 years. FRANCE 24 correspondent Yena Lee brings us the latest from Beijing.
