Li Qiang: "Do not cross the red line."
I believe the issue was that there was no agreement between HK and the mainland at the time. Technically Taiwan is a province of China (as opposed to HK's SAR status), so he would have to be have to be extradited under the authority of the Mainland. Taiwan (and Tsai/DPP) could not accept this because it would mean going along with One China Policy.
The only well known similar case before that was of the gangster who kidnapped Li Ka Shing's son who was arrested and tried in the mainland and subsequently executed. It is atypical to be tried in the mainland for HK crimes. The difference was that there was no extradition as he was arrested in Guangdong.
That’s actually what lit the fuse for the 2019 fiasco.

If you're talking about Kyung Yup Kim, suspected of murdering Peiyun Chen in Shanghai in 2009, apparently the New Zealand Supreme Court and an extradition order was issued , but as of he appears to still be in New Zealand.

I'm still waiting for this "I wei too much" guy to criticize Israel wrong doings in Palestine. I guess his AIPAC money didn't go far enough and now he's "home".

After the Oracle takeover I noticed that there has been no real impact to Wumao content. Those are in fact as rampant, if not more so, than before, and I’ve even had Japanese language Maoist content shoved on my list on multiple occasions (so I guess the algorithm sucks now???). What is noticeable is that there is zero Palestine related content suggested to me. Make of that what you will.
