Friends of Hong Kong, a relatively small UK-based activist organization backing the pro-democracy protestors in the city claim to have been working with Chung in allowing him to claim asylum at the US consulate. Unfortunately, Chung was arrested before he was able to do so. All three of the teens were previously arrested in July for posts associated with the activist group Studentlocalism. The Hong Kong branch of Studentlocalism largely disbanded after the national security law was imposed on the city, banning secession, subversion, and collusion with foreign forces.
