Hong Kong news tycoon Jimmy Lai has been released on bail after being in detention for 36 hours.
His arrest was the most high-profile arrest under the National Security Law imposed on Hong Kong by the Chinese Communist Government that threatens to stifle press freedom in the city-state. Lai’s publication Apple Daily has been an outspoken champion of democracy.
Here’s footage of his arrest yesterday as police swarmed his newsroom and cuffed the publisher.
