Five Hong Kong speech therapists have been convicted of sedition, after they printed a series of children’s books about sheep and wolves that a court said was aimed at inciting hatred against authorities.

The five executive committee members of the General Union of Hong Kong Speech Therapists could face up to two years imprisonment.
