  • Democratic Party pair due in court on Thursday

Democratic Party lawmakers Lam Cheuk-ting and Ted Hui are due to appear in court on Thursday for mention, one day after they were arrested in connection with two protest-related incidents last year.

Sources said Lam has been charged with rioting over the July 21 Yuen Long attack, as well as attempting to pervert the course of justice. He'll appear at West Kowloon Magistracy on Thursday afternoon.

Hui too is due to appear at West Kowloon Magistracy. He's being linked to an incident in Tuen Mun in July 6 last year in which a man's phone was seized and pictures were deleted.

Sources said Hui has been charged with one count of criminal damage and one count of access to computer with dishonest intent.

Lam was among 13 people arrested and linked to the violence in Yuen Long. Lam, Hui and two others were arrested and linked to the incident in Tuen Mun.
