(Minghui.org) Minghui.org recently confirmed that three Hefei City, Anhui Province, residents, were sentenced to prison in November 2023 for practicing Falun Gong, a spiritual discipline that has been persecuted by the Chinese communist regime since 1999.
Ms. Li Caixia, 30, went with Ms. Zhang Ling to distribute information about Falun Gong in Binhu New District on the evening of November 2, 2021. They were followed and arrested by officers from the Jinxiu Police Station and the Domestic Security Division in the Economic and Technological Development Zone. The police raided Ms. Li’s home the next day and also arrested a third practitioner Mr. Sun Shiwei.
While Ms. Zhang and Mr. Sun were soon released on bail, Ms. Li was held at the Hefei City Women’s Detention Center. The police submitted the three practitioners’ cases to the Shushan District Procuratorate around February 10, 2022. Prosecutor Li Jun was placed in charge of their cases.
The three practitioners appeared in the Shushan District Court on June 2, 2023. The judges, Wu Xiaoshui and Bi Dongfeng, sentenced them in November 2023: Ms. Li was given four years, Mr. Sun three years and Ms. Zhang a probation term. The authorities made several attempts to take Mr. Sun into custody to serve time, but failed for unknown reasons. It’s not clear where Ms. Li is currently detained.
