Zhao Meijun / 赵美君
Zhao Meijun (赵美君) is a woman from Anhui Province who practices Falun Gong. According to the Chinese Human Rights Defenders’ Prisoners of Conscience database, she is from Daying Village, Nihe Town, Panji District, Huainan City, Anhui, and was taken into custody on 21 October 2020.
On 21 October 2020, officers of the Huaiyuan County domestic security police in Bengbu City took Zhao Meijun from her home and searched it, seizing four computers, four printers, and Falun Gong-related materials, according to a Minghui.org victim profile. The Huaishang District Court in Bengbu subsequently sentenced her to eight years and six months in prison; the same profile reports that more than 30,000 yuan of her funds were frozen.
The charge against Zhao Meijun is not stated in the available records — the case database records the charge as “unknown.” No conviction on any specific charge is asserted here.
The Prisoners of Conscience record, entered on 31 October 2021, lists her sentence as 8 years and 6 months with a scheduled release date of 20 April 2029. A Minghui victim profile updated on 7 November 2025 states that she is being held in the Anhui Women’s Prison (ward 3).
Status
Documented as imprisoned as of 7 November 2025. No later status information was available when this record was prepared.
