Desperate, hopeless and depressed, a mother of #12hkyouths burst into tears when telling her son is sick w/o medicine in #China’s prison, with no updates nor access to lawyers for 2 weeks. She just wants to see her son one more time in her life. #save12hkyouths #SaveTheChildren

Max. period of criminal detention under China's laws is 30 days. Failure to apply for an arrest within the period is illegal. HK govt's press release basically confirmed that the Chinese police are now illegally imprisoning #12hkyouths.

3. Worse still, he may face graver charges if #police crack his clients' phones w/ phone hacking tools like #Cellebrite & find any suspicious conversations. He hopes his bail can be granted & #12hkyouths can come back safe.
After all, #Hongkongers hope he can be released soon.

We stand with @SarahChampionMP @MPIainDS @uffeelbaek & other parliamentarians in calling for @FCDOGovUK @DominicRaab to ensure that UK consulate officials, the families, the media, & their lawyers are allowed to monitor the trial & have access to the 12 HK youths. #12hkyouths twitter.com/SarahChampionM…

3. #HKers can also be taken to #China’s courts w/o legal access, just like #12hkyouths now detained for nearly one month. Their family-instructed lawyers are reportedly forced to quit the case under #Beijing's pressure. twitter.com/joshuawongcf/s…

HK govt's press release on 26Sept quoted the Guangdong Provincial Public Security Dept to confirm that #12hkyouths had been detained for over 30 days, and Yantian Public Security had yet to file for formal arrest. twitter.com/alvinllum/stat…

3. All I wish this year is another birthday meal with my family next year, the safe return of the #12hkyouths, and the release of thousands of freedom-seeking #Hkers now detained in prison. #save12
