    Hong Kong survivors push to close ‘consent loophole’ in reforms to sex crime laws

    Hong Kong women’s rights advocates and sexual assault survivors are urging authorities to close a legal loophole allowing defendants to claim an honest but mistaken belief in consent as a defense. They argue this undermines proposed reforms to sex crime laws and called for stricter consent definitions to be extended to this defense.
