"Her supporters have started calling her "the real Mulan" - in reference
to the legendary Chinese heroine who fought to save her family and country.

Ms Chow was one of a handful of activists and media figures arrested
this week under a controversial new security law imposed by Beijing. She
was detained on a charge of "colluding with foreign forces" - if
convicted, she could face up to life in jail.

She's now been released on bail, but her arrest prompted an outpouring
of support, with many tweeting the hashtag #FreeAgnes."
