(Minghui.org) Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Lin Baozhen from Pudong New Area in Shanghai is facing prosecution after the police submitted her case to the local procuratorate on June 27, 2017.
Ms. Lin and Ms. Ling Wenjian were arrested at the subway station exit on Jufeng Road by officers from the Pudong Police Department on April 24, 2017.
They were forced into a police vehicle and body searched without a warrant. Their cash, prepaid phone cards and cell phones were confiscated. Both women were then taken to the Pudong New Area Detention Center.
Ms. Lin's home was ransacked the next day.
Ms. Ling was released on May 23, 2017, while Ms. Lin's arrest was approved by the procuratorate and her case submitted in June.
