Clerk jailed four months for importing seditious books
The West Kowloon Magistracy on Friday sentenced a clerk to four months in prison after he pleaded guilty to bringing in 18 seditious children's picture books from the UK. Kurt Leung, 38, admitted to a charge of importing a seditious publication. In sentencing, Chief Magistrate Victor So said the books, which feature sheep and wolves, indoctrinated children with hatred, contempt and disaffection towards the central government.   He noted that the defendant's actions could encourage people overseas to continue publishing the books, threatening national security. The five speech therapists who created the books were jailed for sedition in a separate case last year.
