(Minghui.org) A woman in Chengdu City, Sichuan Province, has been held in the Chengdu Detention Center since her arrest on June 2, 2024, for practicing Falun Gong. She is now facing possible prosecution.
Ms. Shui Qionghua’s arrest came only two years after she finished a prior two-year term, also for her faith in Falun Gong, which has been persecuted by the Chinese communist regime since 1999.
Ms. Shui was previously arrested on May 13, 2021, for talking to people about the persecution of Falun Gong. She was sentenced to two years by the Shuangliu District Court on April 28, 2022. She was released around May 2023.
Before Ms. Shui began to practice Falun Gong, she struggled with severe asthma. She tried many treatments, but nothing helped much. Her condition quickly disappeared after she took up Falun Gong. She felt compelled to raise awareness about the persecution in China, only to become the target of persecution herself.
