The Police Force's National Security Department this morning laid a charge against a 19-year-old local woman on one count of “doing with a seditious intention an act or acts that had a seditious intention”.

The woman is alleged to have been involved in producing promotional videos for a subversive organisation named the “Hong Kong Parliament” from March to May this year, and appealing to others through social media platforms to vote for the purpose of overthrowing and undermining the central powers of the People's Republic of China or the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.

The case was due to be mentioned at the West Kowloon Magistrates' Courts this afternoon.
