Prosecutors had alleged Lai, founder of the Apple Daily newspaper, intimidated a reporter from rival publication Oriental Daily. The reporter claimed the incident happened in Hong Kong’s Victoria Park on June 4, 2017, during an annual candlelight vigil to remember Beijing’s crackdown on protesters in Tiananmen Square. But Lai’s legal troubles are not yet over, since he faces other charges including suspicion of breaching the new national security law Chinese mainland authorities have imposed on the city.
