Hong Kong police charged two executives from the pro-democracy Apple Daily newspaper on Friday using a powerful new security law, a day after the company's newsroom was raided over articles it had published. In a short statement, police said a 47-year-old and a 59-year-old were charged with "collusion with a foreign country or with external elements to endanger national security". Apple Daily said the two charged executives were chief editor Ryan Law and CEO Cheung Kim-hung. jta/rbu
