In Hong Kong, media mogul Jimmy Lai has returned to jail after the court of final appeal adjourned his bail hearing without a decision.
The territory’s high profile pro-democracy activist is being charged under new national security laws for alleged foreign collusion. He has spent a month in prison awaiting his trial in April.
As Al Jazeera's Divya Gopalan reports, this case is seen as a turning point in the imposition of the national security law and a crisis for the judiciary.
