JUST IN: Hong Kong's High Court has found a man guilty in the city's first-ever trial under the Beijing-imposed national security law. In a landmark verdict on Tuesday, 24-year-old Tong Ying-kit was convicted of committing incitement to secession and terrorist activities by Madam Justices Esther Toh, Anthea Pang and Justice Wilson Chan. He could face up to life imprisonment as the court adjourned the sentencing. Mitigation is set for Thursday.

The activist, who had pleaded not guilty to the charges, is the first person to be found guilty of breaching the controversial security legislation, which also outlaws subversion and collusion with foreign powers. Tuesday's ruling will likely set a precedent for upcoming national security cases.

Tong was arrested on July 1 last year, after he rammed a motorcycle displaying a "Liberate Hong Kong, revolution of our times" protest flag into three policemen during a demonstration in Wan Chai. More on HKFP.
