!["They come very early in the morning, handcuff you and send you directly to the police station, to court. Any moment can be the end of your freedom. My family not only saw them arrest me, the police followed them as well. My wife had nightmares of us being caught. My kids said if we don’t leave, the 'baddy' will come for us. I wouldn't have been able to speak for Hongkongers, freedom or democracy any more if I stayed because the national security law is vague,” said Ted Hui Chi-fung a former opposition lawmaker who is facing at least nine charges, including “foreign collusion”, under the national security law. He is also one of 15 Hong Kong lawmakers who resigned in protest from the city’s legislative council last year after Beijing removed four other politicians for being "unpatriotic”.
