Jimmy Lai, founder of Apple Daily, has been imprisoned for over 4 years and 7 months — nearly 1,700 days — on trumped-up charges under the National Security Law. His son, Sebastien Lai, has said in interviews that Jimmy is kept long-term in a cell without natural light, his health is deteriorating, and "he does not have much time left."

14 August 2025 marks the start of the final defense in his trial. Because of his commitment to Hong Kong's values, Jimmy Lai may never walk free again. We called on supporters worldwide to show their concern for his case and urged the international community to take action, demanding that the Hong Kong government immediately release Jimmy Lai and the six other Apple Daily staff charged alongside him.
