Hong Kongs High Court has declared self-exiled activist Ted Hui bankrupt for failing to pay costs of legal proceedings involving him.
The former lawmaker, who left Hong Kong in November 2020, is among 13 self-exiled pro-democracy activists accused of breaching the Beijing-imposed national security law.
High Court Master Kent Yee issued the bankruptcy order against Hui on Tuesday, saying the activist had never responded to requests that he pay for legal proceedings against him. Hui was not represented at the hearing.
