West Kowloon Court on Thursday adjourned the national security case involving 47 former opposition figures until early June.

The defendants are accused of conspiracy to commit subversion for organising or taking part in unofficial Legco primary polls in July 2020, allegedly as part of their camp's attempt to win enough seats in the legislature to paralyse the government.

Principal magistrate Peter Law set June 1 and 2 as the next return dates for the case.

Most of the accused have been remanded in custody since February last year.
