Exiled Hong Kong activists targeted by fake sexualized images

Exiled Hong Kong activists targeted by fake sexualized images

Two former Hong Kong democracy activists, now living in Britain and Australia, say they are being targeted with fake, sexualized images and false information.

Carmen Lau, who lives in Britain, found out that explicit fake images of her were sent to her neighbors.

Ted Hui, who lives in Australia, had a poster with his wife's photo and false claims sent to his former workplace.

Both believe these actions are part of a larger campaign to silence them.

The activists say this is a way to punish them for speaking out against the Hong Kong government.

The governments of Australia and Britain are investigating these incidents.

The activists think these actions are organized by groups loyal to Beijing.

The Hong Kong government has not responded to requests for comment.
