Police found explosives at the site in Sai Kung. RTHK photoFour suspects charged over an alleged bomb plot in Sai Kung were denied bail on Wednesday.
Five men and one woman, aged 21 to 34, have been charged with conspiracy to cause an explosion after police said they found explosive chemicals during a raid of an old building in Sai Kung.
Four of the five men applied for bail but were denied. The fifth man also remains in custody. The woman had already been released on bail.
"Why did you appear at a place where explosives were being tested? Why did you enter the location?" questioned magistrate Don So as he denied the bail applications. "Only you were found at the scene," he added.
Police have said they seized chemicals which could be used to make explosives in the June raid and that one of those arrested admitted to being part of a "radical local group".
