HK marathon bail hearings slammed as damaging ‘farce’ Bloomberg Dozens of Hong Kong opposition figures have spent four days in court already this week to see if they will be jailed for months ahead of their trials on national security charges, but the unusually long arraignment might have already done lasting damage to the judiciary’s reputation. The 47 defendants including prominent democracy advocates Joshua Wong (黃之鋒), Benny Tai (戴耀廷) and Jimmy Sham (岑子杰), as well as numerous past and current lawmakers have been in and out of court since Monday. Sessions have stretched late into the night, prompting some defendants to seek hospital care, and causing foreign observers to wonder whether the conditions made it harder to mount a sufficient defense and provided possible grounds for appeal.
