Police on Tuesday issued arrest warrant against activists Carmen Lau, 29, Tony Chung, 23, and Chloe Cheung, 19; as well as former pollster Chung Kim-wah, 64, former TVB actor Joseph Tay, 62, and Canada-based YouTuber Victor Ho, 69.
The six are accused of committing national security offences including inciting secession and colluding with foreign forces.
This marked the third round of arrest warrants issued since the Beijing-imposed security law was imposed. Last year, police issued arrest warrants for eight activists in July, and another five in December. Those wanted included ex-lawmakers Dennis Kwok and Ted Hui, as well as activists Simon Cheng and Tony Choi.
