Hong Kong: 45 pro-democracy activists sentenced to prison in biggest national security case
A Hong Kong court has handed prison sentences to 45 democracy advocates in the city's largest trial under the 2020 national security law, with rights groups condemning the verdict.
A top Chinese official has blasted President Trump’s Hong Kong tariffs, calling them “arrogant and shameless.” Xia Baolong, director of the Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office, further mocked the U.S. by referring to Americans as “peasants,” warning of a backlash against Trump’s trade war tactics. The insult follows a heated exchange after U.S. VP J.D. Vance’s earlier comment on China. As tensions rise, both countries have unleashed new tariffs, escalating the economic war with global consequences. Will diplomacy return—or will this spiral into chaos?

Fugitive diamond tycoon Mehul Choksi, accused in India’s ₹13,500-crore PNB fraud case, has been arrested in Belgium following India’s extradition request. Choksi, previously residing in Antigua, allegedly used forged documents to gain Belgian residency. Sources reveal he planned to flee to Switzerland under the guise of medical treatment. His arrest marks a major breakthrough for Indian agencies amid a long-standing extradition battle. The case is now under process as India seeks his return for prosecution. His nephew, Nirav Modi, remains jailed in the UK, also facing extradition.
