(Minghui.org) A 53-year-old woman in Meizhou City, Guangdong Province, is facing indictment for practicing Falun Gong, a spiritual discipline that has been persecuted by the Chinese Communist Party since July 1999.
Ms. Fu Xuebing was arrested on September 10, 2024, as soon as she stepped outside her apartment building. She was taken to the Chengdong Detention Center and issued a formal arrest warrant around October 15.
This is not the first time Ms. Fu has been targeted for her faith. She was previously arrested in 2005, 2008, 2010, 2012, and 2014. Her home was ransacked numerous times and her properties were confiscated.
In addition to being arrested and incarcerated, Ms. Fu was also repeatedly fined for not calling her supervisor at the Bank of China Meizhou City Division to report her whereabouts at night or on holidays (as the authorities tried to prevent her from going out to distribute Falun Gong materials). She worked at the bank as a lobby manager for 16 years, but when she was eventually fired on August 6, 2008, she was not given any severance pay.
Ms. Fu was sentenced to seven years after her arrest in 2014. She endured horrific abuse in prison and was released early in June 2020. She was frequently harassed by the police after she returned home. See the related report for details of her past persecution.
