香港民主派活動人士黃之鋒被控告中國《香港國安法》下的「串謀勾結外國勢力危害國家安全」罪,星期四(11月5日)於香港高等法院被判囚10年。

上個月剛滿30歲的黃之鋒,自2020年底起因不同案件入獄,至今身在獄中超過六年。

他正就「民主派初選47人案」服刑,原有望於2027年1月獲釋。新增的10年刑期,其中2個月2日與「47人案」同期執行。

這是繼壹傳媒創辦人黎智英後,第二宗在香港被起訴「勾結外國勢力」罪的案件,也是黃之鋒第二宗涉及《香港國安法》相關的案件。

判刑

BBC中文記者現場所見,在正式宣判前,黃之鋒到庭。

黃之鋒身穿深藍色長袖裇衫及卡其色長褲、戴黑框眼鏡,較以往瘦削,面有鬚根,出庭時向旁聽席點頭,沒有微笑,他不時細望旁聽席的人士,然後微微點頭打招呼。有旁聽人士輪流進場換人,與黃之鋒短暫打招呼後離去。

正庭公眾席全滿,旁聽者包括:戴着黑色口罩的學民思潮前成員錢詩文及社運人士雷玉蓮。

主審法官譚耀豪在判刑前,先交代判刑理由。在宣讀判刑理由時,黃之鋒戴着耳機不時手記筆記。最終判囚10年,黃之鋒聞訊後平靜低頭。

法官以13年監禁作為量刑起點,考慮認罪答辯及求情下調三年,判囚10年,屬於罪行重大判處的最低刑期;又指法庭指有必要就被告勾結危害國安的行為,表達社會對此行為的厭惡,判刑需具阻嚇性目的。

黃之鋒正就「民主派初選47人案」服刑,原有望於2027年1月獲釋。新增的10年刑期,其中2個月2日與「47人案」同期執行。

法官指出,《國安法》生效前的行為及活動,構成涉案罪行的背景,量刑時須考慮犯罪背景,以評估罪行的嚴重程度及被告的罪責,強調屬既定原則。

有旁聽人士向黃揮手,並說「等你出來」,錢詩文與友人相擁哭泣;判刑散庭後,有旁聽人士一向走上前欲與黃之鋒握手,被黃叫停。

旁聽人士:香港人願一起承擔

據本地媒體報導,今早在法院外約有50人排隊。

前學民思潮成員Louis Lee在判刑前表示,希望黃之鋒能盡快獲釋,早日與家人、朋友會面,「過一個他so called本來的生活」。他表示,上月底曾到監獄探望黃之鋒,其「狀態OK」,對世界有好奇,期待收到朋友的信件,但也擔心刑期。

旁聽人士、家庭主婦黃小姐向BBC中文表示,她早於周二下午已到法院外排隊。

她身穿寫有「在頹垣中創造希望」字樣的上衣,表示自己「看着黃之鋒成長」,「十幾歲已經振振有詞,很有自己想法、有香港的大局觀……他會為香港未來、人權、學運行一條很艱難的路,甚至有機會令自己身陷囹圄。」

她稱,不敢預期結果,僅望可公平公開審訊。「無論什麼結果都好,香港人願意一起承擔和承受,不應只政治犯去承擔罪名。」

案情及求情

根據《香港國安法》,「勾結」罪可囚3年以上至10年以下,「罪行重大」者可判囚10年以上至無期徒刑。

控罪指,黃之鋒於2020年7月1日至2020年11月23日,在香港與羅冠聰及其他身分不詳的人一同串謀,請求外國或境外機構、組織、人員,對香港或中國進行制裁、封鎖或採取其他敵對行動。

控方案情指,黃之鋒與「香港眾志」創黨主席羅冠聰早在2016年達成串謀,透過國際遊說(international lobbying)達到「民主自決」主張。

案情指二人在《香港國安法》生效前已展開「國際線」,要求外國制裁香港、中國,包括多次參與國際遊說,並出席歐洲議會人權小組委員會。二人在美國期間又會晤當地政要,如時任美國眾議院少數黨領袖佩洛西(Nancy Pelosi,裴洛西)、時任參議員盧比奧(Marco Rubio,魯比奧/魯比歐)等。二人被指推動《香港人權與民主法案》。

該法案於2019年11月27日生效,授權美國政府可制裁侵害香港人權的個人與組織,並要求美國國務院每年審查香港是否仍擁有足夠自治、符合獲得貿易特殊地位的資格。

除實體會面外,案情指黃之鋒與羅冠聰曾推動多個國際聯署,要求外國制裁港府並就國安法施壓,包括要求美國等停止向香港警察供應裝備。美國於2019年10月至11月通過法案,限制向香港供應催淚彈或人群管制相關技術的裝備。

《香港國安法》於2020年6月30日深夜生效,「香港眾志」同日解散及停止運作,羅冠聰離港。

案情指,二人在《香港國安法》生效後沒改變共同目的(common intention),繼續參與「國際線」。其中黃之鋒在 Facebook 發帖表示不會刪除舊帖文、不會放棄其政治立場和意見、不會放棄打「國際線」,並會繼續尋求國際社會支持。

2025年6月6日早上,黃之鋒在赤柱監獄被捕。他於2026年9月2日認罪。

辯方陳政龍資深大律師求情時指,黃之鋒自24歲開始還押,在獄中近六年間,已充分反思其行為和路向。辯方又指,黃於獄中並無浪費時間。他閱讀超過100本書籍,又持正面的態度,期望有一天獲釋後可以照顧年邁家人。

從學運領袖到國安囚犯

10月份剛滿30歲的黃之鋒,人生過半時間都在投身香港社運。

2011年,香港政府正打算在中小學推行「國民教育」政策,計劃將「德育及國民教育科」設定為必修課。只有14歲的黃之鋒與其他中學生自發成立香港首個中學生政團「學民思潮」。

2012年,他發起「反國教運動」,組織約12萬人在香港政府總部外集會,最終成功迫使政府暫時擱置政策。

「反國教運動」成功之後,他並未沉寂下來。2014年,黃之鋒與其他學運領袖在雨傘運動前夕,號召示威者衝入俗稱「公民廣場」的香港政府總部東翼前地,觸發雨傘運動。當年,他登上美國《時代》雜誌亞洲版的封面,標題為「抗爭的面孔」,他亦被選為全球25位最具影響力的少年。

被指涉案的羅冠聰於《國安法》生效前離開香港,目前獲英國政治庇護。

Yue’s wife was domestically abused and fled back to her hometown with her daughter. The judge supported her: maternal love and protection are natural.

A Vietnamese woman surnamed Yang was charged with quasi-seduction after she brought her 1-year-old and 10-month-old daughter back to her natal family in Vietnam after suffering domestic violence from her Taiwanese husband for a long time. Both the first and second instance judges held that he had no criminal intent and acquitted him, rejecting the prosecution's appeal.

The founder of the ride-hailing platform "Call Xiaohuang" under the supervision of the Ministry of Transport: Safety training should not be tied to the platform, and the competent authorities should take responsibility

The Ministry of Transport has announced an amendment to the "Operation Measures for Application and Approval of Taxi Passenger Transport Service Industry" and plans to take over the management of taxi-hailing platforms. Zhou Liwei, the founder of Call Xiao Huang, questioned the draft's continued use of the traditional fleet management framework, requiring platforms to set up branches, obtain a 150-vehicle threshold, and bind safety training to fleets or platform participation, which may raise the threshold and hinder the digitalization of the industry. He also suggested that safety training return to the responsibilities of the competent authority.
