    A photo online showed the radio show host, known as Giggs, who have since suspended his programmes from late November.

Democratic Party chairman Lo Kin-hei on Sunday accused the government of suppressing opposition voices, after an online radio host was arrested for a second time by national security police, while out on bail.

Wan Yiu-sing - also known as Giggs on the internet radio channel D100 - was previously arrested for alleged links to a fundraising campaign for young Hong Kong protesters who want to study in Taiwan.

"I think the arrest of the online host again...it's another time that the regime is trying to suppress the Hong Kong people's voice," Lo said.

"I think that he is very unfortunate that the regime targeted him as one of those who is to be suppressed, repressed".

In a statement, police said they had arrested a 52-year-old male on Hong Kong Island for seditious intent, in breach of the Crimes Ordinance.

Last year, another activist, Tam Tak-chi, became the first person to be charged with sedition under the ordinance.
