Jimmy Sham Tsz-kit, one of 47 Hong Kong opposition figures charged in the city’s largest national security case, was released from prison after serving a four-year sentence for conspiracy to commit subversion, linked to his involvement in an unofficial primary election. Sham and three others – Kinda Li Ka-tat, Roy Tam Hoi-pong, and Henry Wong Pak-yu – were released on May 30, 2025, a police source confirmed. They were the second batch of defendants in the high-profile case to complete their sentences. Sham, 37, a former district councillor and member of the now-defunct Civil Human Rights Front, was sentenced to four years and three months in prison in November 2024, with the time he spent in pre-trial detention also taken into account.
