Liu Jinbo (刘进波) is listed in human-rights monitoring records as a prisoner of conscience in Shandong Province serving a four-year prison sentence.
The Prisoners of Conscience Database lists 刘进波 / Liu Jinbo in its Shandong records with a status of “in prison” and a database-listed release date of May 17, 2027. That date is a database field, not an independently confirmed future release.
Rights Defense Network Issue 131, dated August 31, 2026, also lists 刘进波 in its four-year-sentence group.
No case narrative has been located in the available sources. They do not establish a charge, arrest date, court, detention facility, occupation, or specific belief-group affiliation.
Status: source-reported as in prison as of the dated monitoring records. Current custody is not independently confirmed.
Identity safeguard: this record is 刘进波. It must not be confused with 刘金波, a former Jilin public-security official and deputy governor.
