(Minghui.org) Li Huiyue is a Falun Gong practitioner from Jixi City, Heilongjiang Province. He was sentenced to four years of imprisonment on January 21, 2013. Before that, Mr. Li had been sentenced twice to forced labor.

Mr. Li Huiyue

Mr. Li was born on March 29, 1960 and lives in Xinchengwei, Chengzihe District, Jixi City, Heilongjiang Province. Officials from the local Domestic Security Division of Chengzihe Police Bureau in Jixi City broke into his home, ransacked it and arrested him on October 30, 2012. Then they sent him to Jixi City No. 1 Detention Center. However, an arrest notice wasn't issued until November 9, 2012.

The Chengzihe District Procuratorate filed charges against Mr. Li on January 5, 2013. Sixteen days later, authorities at the Chengzihe District Court held a trial and sentenced him to four years in prison.

Authorities concealed the time of the trial from the public and only allowed four people to attend. Later, Mr. Li's family went to the Chengzihe Court to get his verdict and an appeal letter, but the secretary refused to give it to them. After some difficulty, the court officials finally agreed to give it to them.

Mr. Li's mother is almost 80 years old and in poor health. His brother suffers from psychosis and is also at home with the mother. Now, no one is taking care of them since Mr. Li was arrested.

In March 2001, Mr. Li was sentenced to three years of forced labor because he told people the facts about Falun Gong. He was sentenced for the second time on March 5, 2009, to two years of forced labor for clarifying the truth and was cruelly tortured.

This time, the judge sentenced Mr. Li to prison on the pretext that he wrote the sentence, “Falun Dafa is good,” on walls and electric poles, and for having Falun Gong-related materials at home. The Chinese Communist Party has been persecuting and defaming Falun Gong since July 20, 1999.

Mr. Li refuses to accept the unfair verdict and appealed to the court on February 7, 2013.
