A Hong Kong court has ordered the confiscation of over HK$674,000 (US$86,065) from three individuals involved in a terrorism plot. The funds were raised by a group called the "Dragon Slaying Brigade" and were deemed terrorist property under a 2002 ordinance. This marks the first such confiscation order since the law's enactment. The plot, which involved plans to kill police officers during 2019 protests, aimed to steal firearms and cause significant disruption. AI
