Three months later, the police deceived and arrested Mr. Liu and subsequently sentenced him to eighteen months of forced labor without going through any legal process.

On the early morning of March 28, the police ransacked his home and again arrested him. After six months of custody, he was living under surveillance (not at his home) for seven more months. At the end of the seventh month, he was not released. Instead, on January 15, 2004, he was suddenly notified that he had been sentenced to two years of forced labor. He is currently being unlawfully held at Xinkaipu Forced Labor Camp in Changsha City, Hunan Province.
Mr. Liu Zhenwu's wife Wang Jinlian went to Beijing to validate Falun Dafa for a second time in December 2000. She was arrested by Beijing police and sent to Shunli County for four days of custody. She was then detained in Nan County for over twenty days before being sent to the forced labor camp for eighteen months.
In March 2003, Ms. Wang was unlawfully detained for six months by the Nan County Police Department for raising public awareness about the persecution of Falun Gong.
