(Minghui.org) Ms. Liu Duanhui, 68, stood trial on August 25, 2023 for her faith in Falun Gong, a mind-body practice that has been persecuted by the Chinese Communist Party since July 1999. The authorities have refused to reveal her detention location to her family. The family is very worried about her wellbeing.
Ms. Liu lives on Bawusan Farm in Baoqing County, Shuangyashan City, Heilongjiang Province. She was initially arrested by officers from the Qinghe Police Station on Bawusan Farm in 2020, for distributing Falun Gong informational materials. The Jiansanjiang Branch Court scheduled a hearing of her case for December 24, 2020, but she managed to escape before the hearing and lived away from home since then.
Bawusan Farm is under the administration of the Jiansanjiang Branch, Heilongjiang Province Land Reclamation Bureau, which manages the state-owned farms across the province. Such farms have their own police stations.
Ms. Liu was arrested again on August 19, 2023, at her temporary residence in Dalian City, Liaoning Province. The arresting officers from the Dalian City Police Department notified the Qinghe Police Station, which dispatched officers to pick her up and take her back.
The Qinghe Police Station had attempted to get Ms. Liu admitted to the Shuangyashan City Detention Center, but she was denied admission after she was found to have high blood pressure and high cholesterol during the required physical examination.
The police then put Ms. Liu under house arrest at an undisclosed location. Her younger daughter, who had not seen her for two years, requested to see her but her request was denied. The police refused to reveal Ms. Liu’s whereabouts despite her family’s repeated requests.
Her family found out recently that that she had been tried by the Jiansanjiang Branch Court on August 25, 2023. Judge Ding Lichang (+86-454-5810941) presided over the trial. The clerk was Chen Zhipeng. Other details of the trial remain to be investigated.
