The group also hosted discussions on committing arson, Judge Hui said, including setting roadblocks on fire, hurling petrol bombs at police stations and teaching people to make such weapons. The conversation linked to arson went on for two to three months, Hui said. Hui said the messages, which included urging the disruption of airport operations, were attempts to incite followers to make use of poisonous, corrosive or flammable substances to vandalize police vehicles, and also called on others to make weapons to harm police. As five out of seven counts were serious, Hui sentenced Ng to six years and six months in jail. A Hong Kong protester with a petrol bomb. File photo: Dylan Hollingsworth/HKFP. ‘Ban’ on Telegram
