Since 2000, a large number of practitioners have been illegally detained in Qianjin Prison. It is one of the major prisons in Beijing where heavily sentenced male Falun Gong practitioners are detained. The majority of them served--and are still serving--sentences ranging from five to more than 10 years. Among them are staff members of the Falun Dafa Research Society who were sentenced at the end of 1999, including Mr. Li Chang, Mr. Ji Liewu and Mr. Wang Zhiwen; practitioners from Qinghua University, including Mr. Meng Jun and Mr. Wang Weiyu; and many other practitioners, including Mr. Liang Minghua, Mr. Wu Jun, Mr. Gao Jianming, Mr. Qin Wei, Mr. Xu Huaquan, Mr. Wu Chao, Mr. Wu Yinchang, Mr. Li Yeliang, Mr. Zhang Yanbin, and Mr. Deng Huaiying.
