Hong Kong pro-democracy activist Joshua Wong was sentenced to 10 years in prison on Thursday after pleading guilty to "foreign collusion" under the city's national security law, according to The Guardian's report of the sentencing. The Guardian said it was Wong's second conviction under that law and that he has been imprisoned since 2020.

The New York Times reported that Wong, one of the most high-profile members of a movement that was quashed in 2020, was accused of conspiracy to collude with foreign forces, a national security offense. The Times described the charge in different wording from The Guardian, and the summaries of the two reports do not explain how the descriptions relate.

The BBC News reported that Wong, 30, is among hundreds of Hongkongers detained under the national security law, which it described as controversial. Its headline called him the face of Hong Kong's pro-democracy protests.

The Guardian reported that critics say the law has been used to silence political opposition in the city. It also said Wong is the only activist in Hong Kong prosecuted twice under the law.

The summaries of these reports do not include comments from Wong, prosecutors or the court.
