Description
Former Hong Kong police superintendent Bill Yuen and UK border force officer Peter Wai are on trial at the Old Bailey, accused of assisting a foreign intelligence service and foreign interference. Yuen, a dual Chinese-British national, and Wai, a thirty-eight-year-old, face charges of gathering information on pro-democracy activists and supportive politicians in the UK. Yuen, who retired from the Hong Kong police in 2015 and moved to London, denies directing Wai to monitor protesters or surveil high-profile dissident Nathan Law. Wai faces additional charges for allegedly misusing Home Office computer access while working as a special constable. Both men plead not guilty, with the trial ongoing.
