Case record
National-security police arrested Elizabeth Tang in March 2023 after she visited Lee Cheuk-yan in prison. Contemporary reporting said she was released on bail and that her passport and other items were retained. No custodial sentence for this case is verified in the sources used for this update, so this page does not label her currently imprisoned.
