Hong Kong media mogul Jimmy Lai faces a landmark security trial under the Beijing-imposed security law, accused of colluding with foreign forces and conspiring to publish seditious material. The trial, without a jury, is expected to last for about 80 days, with concerns about the growing influence of Beijing. The outcome could lead to a possible life sentence for Lai, drawing condemnation from Western governments and international human rights groups.
