A Hong Kong court on Monday ruled that Jimmy Lai Chee-ying, Apple Daily and media group Next Digital founder, has a case to answer for allegedly intimidating a reporter from a newspaper three years ago.
West Kowloon's Magistrate May Chung Ming-sun ruled the prosecution had established sufficient evidence to prosecute the Next Digital boss after three days of trial.
Lai allegedly intimidated an Oriental Daily reporter during the June 4 candlelight vigil in Victoria Park three years ago.
The court ruled that prima facie evidence was found. The prosecution has now completed its case, with closing arguments scheduled for August 28.
