Media Profile & Archive — Wang Zhaomin (王兆敏). This archive preserves the source basis, identification method, and evidentiary limits behind the Person Profile. It supports Wang Zhaomin (王兆敏) — Falun Gong practitioner, Dashiqiao.
Person profile
Wang Zhaomin (王兆敏) — Falun Gong practitioner, Dashiqiao City (Yingkou, Liaoning); home in Dongzhi Village, Yong’an Town; arrested at home November 25, 2025 in a coordinated police sweep; held at the Dashiqiao City Detention Center; tried by the Zhanqian District Court July 16–17, 2026; sentenced August 11, 2026 — criminal judgment (2026) Liao 0802 Xing Chu No. 72 — to 7 years with a 40,000-yuan fine; reported term through November 24, 2032. Gender is not stated in the located sources.
Identification method
The roster entry is the case biography: the Rights Defense Network’s August 23, 2026 report names 王兆敏 with nine anchored details — practitioner affiliation, city, town and village, arrest date and manner, detention facility, procedural sequence, court, judgment number, sentence and term end. The Issue 131 monthly report (August 31, 2026) republishes the same biography in both editions, lists “Wang Zhaomin” at position 86 of 86 in the 7-years sentence group (matching 王兆敏 at position 86 of 86 in the Chinese edition), and names 王兆敏 in its list of 28 newly sentenced persons. A World Organization to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong notice (July 25, 2026) on co-sweep detainee Zhang Yuzhen corroborates the shared circumstances — the November 25, 2025 Dashiqiao operation against nine practitioners, the detention-facility split, the late-December 2025 procuratorate step, and the mid-July 2026 court window after a postponement.

Source grading
- Rights Defense Network (维权网) Information Center — case biography, August 23, 2026 (posted August 24) — practitioner-documentation outlet; read directly, full text. The only source naming Wang Zhaomin with case detail. The judgment number, dates, and sentence are reported claims, not independently verified against a published court document.
- Rights Defense Network — Issue 131 monthly report, August 31, 2026 (both editions) — live ZH page opened and read directly (chinatruth.net mirror). Republishes the biography and supplies the dated current-custody classification (2026-08-31). Listing evidence + dated classification; not independent case reporting.
- World Organization to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong — notice on Zhang Yuzhen, July 25, 2026 — advocacy investigation notice; opened and read directly, full text. Corroborates the November 25, 2025 Dashiqiao sweep, the detention locations, the procuratorate timeline, and the trial-court window. It names Zhang Yuzhen only — it does not name Wang Zhaomin and is not used as attribution for Wang’s case facts. Corroborating context only.
Conflicts and evidentiary limitations
- The August 11, 2026 judgment (2026) 辽0802刑初72号 has not been located as a published court document; the sentence and fine are reported claims from the Rights Defense Network.
- No appeal record is documented; do not state that an appeal was or was not filed.
- Prison admission (which facility, when): not documented in any located source. The last confirmed custody location is the Dashiqiao City Detention Center.
- All case facts come from a single evidence lineage — the Rights Defense Network’s August 2026 biography, republished in its own Issue 131 report. Attribute accordingly; do not present as independently verified fact.
- No independent coverage located: Minghui, Dajiyuan, RFA, and human-rights NGO reporting carried no separately reported account of this case in the searches run. Gender is not stated in any located source; it is not asserted anywhere.
- “Wang Zhaomin” (王兆敏) is a common name. This record is anchored only to the Dashiqiao case above; no other Wang Zhaomin record should be associated with it without multi-anchor matching.
