The aftermath of the 12 Hong Kong activists who fled the city and were detained in Mainland China continued last week, with the release of Hong Kong lawyer Daniel Wong Kwok-tung after 40 hours in police custody. Wong, 71, was arrested along with 10 others over allegedly helping Hong Kong activists flee the city in August. Wong told a local media news conference he was “perplexed” about why he was arrested. “I will remain standing in my role, with my expertise, do what I ought to and what I deeply believe in,” Wong said as he was released on bail.
