HONG KONG, June 5 (Reuters) - Hong Kong journalist Bao Choy won an appeal at the city's top court on Monday against her conviction linked to checking vehicle registration records for a documentary about an attack at a train station on pro-democracy protesters in 2019. Bystanders and journalists were also beaten by the assailants during their attack on the protesters. Choy, whose documentary was focused on the police handling of the mob attack, had pleaded not guilty. Chan also argued that the prosecution failed to mention press freedom, which is protected under the city’s mini constitution.
