been back in court. that charges are related to their roles in organizing elections . last july, the aim of that pool was to ensure that enough pro democracy candidates would be elected to the cities legislative council. the big palate has more from mom. this would be the 3rd time they're appearing in court, and the session is largely procedural, more formalities to do with documentation and translation court. the court session has ended despite the very intense interest in this particular court session. not only due to the fact that the $47.00 would be the list of the route to hong kong democracy activism. but also due to the fact that many of them are well known international phases like joshua want. in fact, there was a long q here of the public and supporters who wanted to be part or to witness this court case. and that included representatives from embassies and consulates from

various countries. but also of interest is the fact that this is the largest sweep under the national security law. and it is a test case for hong kong. she this re system this law and runs parallel to hong kong, highly vaunted highly respected common law system. and yet, it also undermines that in many are concerned that you know, the fact that this law is go, have no jury and bail is not right here. and many say that it's even presumed guilty until proven innocent instead of the way the common law system should work. so there is a great amount of interest in this case here, despite the fact that it is likely to run for a very long time. it is unprecedented. and the next session will be on september 23 insure lanka, another member of the raj, packs of family has been thrown into cabinets. basil roger pack says, now the finance minister, his brother is a prime minister and president,
