Former Hong Kong activist Agnes Chow who was jailed over her role in pro-democracy protests revealed on Sunday she had moved to Canada and would not return to meet her bail conditions.
She announced that she left for Toronto in mid-September for university studies and she would not return to Hong Kong in December to report to the police as her bail conditions demand.
Chow was one of nine people arrested in 2020 alongside pro-democracy media tycoon Jimmy Lai accused of “colluding with foreign forces to endanger national security”.
However, in early July, Hong Kong police offered to return her passport on the condition that Chow would travel with them once to the mainland Chinese city of Shenzhen.
She agreed, and in mid-August spent a day with five police officers, where she was shown an exhibition of China’s achievements and the headquarters of tech company Tencent – where she was requested to pose for photos.
Wong was jailed in Hong Kong over a “subversion” case while Nathan Law, another activist, has fled abroad with a HK$1m bounty on his head.
