News summary

Hong Kong police arrested a 41-year-old man and a 28-year-old woman on suspicion of seditious acts related to a recent suicide case. The man is accused of placing memorial light boxes that allegedly incited hatred towards the central authorities, while the woman is suspected of forging the deceased's last words, which linked the suicide to political unrest since 2019. Both individuals were detained following searches of their residences, where police seized light boxes, materials for making them, and electronic devices. This enforcement action is part of ongoing investigations under the Safeguarding National Security Ordinance, which carries severe penalties for seditious acts. Concerns have been raised regarding the implications of such arrests for freedom of expression in Hong Kong, particularly in light of recent political developments and the passing of Article 23. The police continue to urge the public to adhere to the law, emphasizing that such offenses are taken seriously.
