(Clearwisdom.net) On the morning of May 27, 2010, police officers from the Qiannanzhou 610 Office and the Dujun 610 Office broke into the home of Mr. Liang Rongqi, ransacked his home, and arrested him. Mr. Liang was sent to the Qiananzhou Detention Center in Guizhou Province.
On October 28, 2010, the Duyun Court sentenced Mr. Liang to six years in prison. Mr. Liang submitted an appeal immediately. The Beijing attorney that Mr. Liang hired wrote to the Qiannanzhou Intermediate Court to ask for a public trial. Judge Yuan Hui responded that Mr. Liang's attorney would be informed about the trial. However, on March 16, 2011, without informing the attorney, the court did not go through the normal appeal trial procedure but rather directly dispatched personnel to the detention center, saying the court's decision on Mr. Liang's case was upheld.
