(Minghui.org) The family of a Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province resident recently confirmed that he was sentenced to 5.5 years in September 2023 for his faith in Falun Gong, a spiritual discipline that has been persecuted by the Chinese communist regime since 1999.
Mr. Wang Fuming, in his 20s, is a native of Ganzhou City in the same province. He attended a college in Nanchang and landed a job there two years ago after graduation. On August 3, 2022, he was arrested in his rental place by Xiong Xiaoping and other officers from the Gaoxin District Domestic Security Office. The police suspected him of distributing informational materials about the persecution of Falun Gong. His ID, cellphone, driver’s license and an electric bike were confiscated.
The police first held Mr. Wang in a hotel and then put him on criminal detention at an unknown facility. When his parents, who didn’t practice Falun Gong, inquired about his case status, the police refused to provide any information and instead threatened them, telling them not to expose his persecution to Minghui.org, or he would face a heavier prison sentence.
Fearing retaliation, Mr. Wang’s parents didn’t take any action to seek justice for him. They couldn’t afford to hire a lawyer for him, either. They never received any update about his case over the past year, and only recently found out about his prison sentence. No details about his indictment or court hearing were available.
