(Minghui.org) A 73-year-old woman in Beijing was sentenced to two years in prison with a 3,000-yuan fine in October 2026, for exposing the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP) ongoing persecution of her faith, Falun Gong.
Ms. Liu Shengping was arrested at her rental place in Fangshan District on October 29, 2025, by officers from the Haidian District Police Department. The police claimed that she put up Falun Gong posters in Haidian District four days before the arrest. They held her at the Haidian District Detention Center and issued a formal arrest warrant for her in November 2025.
The Haidian District Procuratorate returned the case to the police in early February 2026, citing insufficient evidence. The police fabricated additional evidence against her and eventually got her indicted. The Haidian District Court sentenced her to two years with a 3,000-yuan fine in October 2026. Other details of her prosecution are unknown.
Ms. Liu took up Falun Gong in September 1998. When the persecution started in July 1999, she continued to practice and was repeatedly arrested. She served two labor camp terms and a prison term, totaling six and a half years. See the related reports for details of her past persecution.
