Claudia Mo Man-ching (born 18 January 1957) is a Hong Kong journalist and politician, a member of the pan-democracy camp. She represented the Kowloon West geographical constituency, until November 2020 when she resigned along other pro-democrats to protest against the disqualification of four of her colleagues by the government. Claudia Mo is one of 53 activists who were arrested in January 2021 under Hong Kong's new National Security Law. On 28 February, she, together with 46 other defendants, were charged with the offence of conspiracy to commit subversion. They appeared in West Kowloon Magistracy on 1 March. After a four-day bail hearing, the court denied her bail and remanded her and 31 other co-defendants in jail custody for three months, pending further police investigation. A court judgement released in late May 2021 evinced that WhatsApp messages to international media had been considered in the judgement to deny Mo bail earlier in April under the stringent bail conditions of the national security law. In November 2024 she was sentenced to 4 years and 2 months of imprisonment. She completed her sentence in April 2025.
