A Fragile Freedom: Wu Chi wai's Uncertain Future in the UK The reunion of former Hong Kong democracy activist Wu Chi wai with his family in London was a moment of unbridled joy.
But it may be short lived: he could be sent back to Hong Kong as early as next Wednesday, ending a brief respite from five years behind bars for his role in an unofficial primary election under Beijing's security law.
Wu's case is a stark reminder of the dwindling freedoms promised to Hong Kong when it returned to China's rule in 1997.
