(Minghui.org) A resident of Xuzhou City, Jiangsu Province, was secretly sentenced to two years in prison for her faith in Falun Gong, a mind-body practice that has been persecuted by the Chinese Communist Party since July 1999.
Ms. Fu Kui, around 50, is an employee of China Construction Bank. She was summoned to the Xuzhou City Police Department on March 1, 2023 and taken to a local brainwashing center. About two months later she was issued a formal arrest warrant and transferred to the Xuzhou City Detention Center.
It was learned recently that she had been sentenced and that she is appealing the wrongful conviction. Other details about her detention and trial remain to be investigated.
Besides Ms. Fu, three other local Falun Gong practitioners were also targeted for their faith. Ms. Song Zhumei and her daughter Ms. Li Shuang were both arrested around April 15, 2024, while distributing Falun Gong informational materials. The police next arrested Ms. Song’s husband, Mr. Li Genlong, and Ms. Li’s husband, Mr. Wang Chao. The two men’s cars and bank cards were also confiscated. While they were later released, the case status of their wives is unclear.
Ms. Guo (first name unknown), a 59-year-old widow, was arrested at home by the Xinqu Police Station on May 30, 2024. Her current situation is unknown, but she is likely facing prosecution just like Ms. Song and Ms. Li.
