Jailed Hong Kong media tycoon moves court to stop police from accessing his phones
Hong Kong has seen a number of prominent media personalities and journalists getting arrested in the recent past. Media tycoon Jimmy Lai, the founder of Next Digital and Apple Daily newspaper, was one such personality who was charged under the new Beijing-backed legislation which many believed was designed to hurt press freedom. The ongoing case of Lai has now taken a fresh turn as he filed a legal action to stop the authorities from inspecting his mobile phones.
