The Li Zhiying case︱British media: The legal team asked to meet Ying Kui and Xin Weicheng to discuss possible release channels

The Jimmy Lai case triggered the National People's Congress Standing Committee to interpret the law. Whether the case can still be defended by Tim Owen, Queen's Counsel, will be handed over to the Hong Kong government, which has always held an opposing position.

The BBC reported that Jimmy Lai's overseas legal team has written to the British government, requesting an urgent meeting with Prime Minister Xin Weicheng to discuss "possible channels for the release of Jimmy Lai."

In the letter, the legal team described the case as "highly concerned" and "symbolic", and pointed out that as a British citizen, when Lai was convicted in another case last year, the US government condemned the charges as forgery, but the British government did not make an official statement. take a stand.

Li Zhiying was originally approved by the court to hire Tim Owen to defend. The government failed to appeal many times. Chief Executive Li Jiachao turned to the National People's Congress for interpretation of the law.

Li Zhiying's case was adjourned until September for retrial.
