Wan, of now-defunct Democratic Party, served four years and eight months in jail for his role in unofficial Legco primary
Former Hong Kong lawmaker Andrew Wan Siu-kin has been released from prison after completing his jail term in a landmark subversion case, saying he hopes to turn a new page in his life.
Wan, of the now-defunct Democratic Party, left Stanley Prison on Saturday morning in a seven-seater vehicle believed to have been arranged by police.
He expressed gratitude to his supporters in a subsequent social media post, sharing a picture of himself smiling and appearing slimmer than before.
βI am having breakfast with my family members and friends now. It is a long-awaited reunion,β he wrote.
βI have already completed all of my [jail] terms, and I am thankful for all the support and care from you all these years. I look forward to starting the next chapter of my life.β
