(Minghui.org) A 68-year-old Zhengzhou City, Henan Province, resident, was secretly sentenced to 2.5 years for practicing Falun Gong, a spiritual discipline that has been persecuted by the Chinese communist regime since 1999.
Ms. He Qingyun was arrested at home around June 20, 2022. She was held at the Zhengzhou City Third Detention Center. Her family was kept in the dark of her case status since. They recently confirmed her prison sentence handed down by the Xinzheng Court around July 2023. They also found out that she has been taken to the Henan Province Women’s Prison in Xinxiang City to serve time. It’s not clear whether they have been allowed to visit Ms. He in the prison.
Prior to Ms. He’s arrest, she was harassed multiple times by officers of the Nanyang Road Police Station and the Jinshui District Procuratorate. It’s not clear whether Jinshui District Procuratorate was involved in her prosecution.
In addition to Ms. He, ten other practitioners in Zhengzhou, between the ages of 42 and 85, were also sentenced to one to eight years in prison by the Xinzheng Court on September 27, 2023.
