(Minghui.org) The Minghui website reported 79 new cases in October 2015, of Chinese citizens sentenced for their belief in Falun Gong.
Sixty of the 79 cases involve Falun Gong practitioners sentenced during an eight-month duration this year, with 11 sentenced between March and August, 33 in September, and 16 in October. The uptick in the number of practitioners sentenced in September and October is likely a result of the Chinese Communist Party's retaliation against lawsuits filed by practitioners against former CCP leader Jiang Zemin.
The other 19 cases lack details on the exact verdict announcement date for each practitioner. Due to the Chinese communist regime's Internet blockade, it is difficult to pinpoint when exactly the 19 practitioners were sentenced.
The sentences of the 79 practitioners ranged from 1 to 8 years, and came from 19 provinces, with Sichuan and Liaoning sending the most practitioners (10 each) to prison.
Hebei Province came in second with 8 practitioners sentenced, followed by Zhejiang and Heilongjiang (7 each), Guangdong (5), Beijing, Anhui, Henan, and Shandong (4 each), Hubei and Jiangxi (3), Jilin, Xinjiang, and Jiangsu (2), and Inner Mongolia, Guizhou, Hunan, and Shaanxi (1 each).
