HONG KONG (Reuters) -- A Hong Kong court on Thursday sentenced veteran democrat Lam Cheuk-ting and six other men to jail terms of several years for rioting after being attacked by a white-shirted mob in the summer of 2019 as pro-democracy protests raged.
On the night of July 21, 2019, more than 100 white-shirted men stormed the Yuen Long MTR station in the China-ruled city's northwest, attacking passers-by and journalists with clubs and sticks.
