In a raid on July 15, a total of five people were arrested from two different bookstores in Hong Kong. The crimes they allegedly committed were selling literature with seditious content, with the aim of undermining state power.
The raids are a result of the heavily criticized national security law that China imposed in Hong Kong in 2020, which has fundamentally restricted freedom of expression.
Since March, arrests of booksellers have taken place in three rounds, writes The Guardian .
