A Hong Kong court on Thursday sentenced two editors of the now-defunct pro-democracy newspaper Stand News to jail time after their conviction last month on sedition charges. Chung Pui-kuen will serve 21 months; Patrick Lam received an 11-month sentence but will avoid jail on medical grounds. It’s the first time journalists have been convicted of sedition since Hong Kong was handed over from Britain to China in 1997, and comes as part of Beijing’s crackdown on Hong Kong’s autonomy.
