Jimmy Lai: the Hong Kong pro-democracy tycoon who is not afraid to take on Beijing
The media mogul has had repeated run-ins with authorities and has vowed to resist rule by the mainland
Hong Kong national security police have arrested media tycoon Jimmy Lai under suspicion of colluding with foreign forces. It marks the most high-profile arrest since Beijing’s national security laws were imposed on Hong Kong in late June, and also saw hundreds of police raid the newsroom of Lai’s Apply Daily tabloid.
Lai, often referred to as the Rupert Murdoch of Asia, is one of the few Hong Kong business leaders willing to criticise Beijing.
