Li Guoying (李国英) is a Falun Gong practitioner from Zhengding County, Hebei Province. Falun Gong-affiliated reporting states that she was arrested in July 2023 and sentenced on March 31, 2025 to five years and six months in prison and a 30,000-yuan fine.
2023 arrest and prosecution
Minghui reports that Li was detained on July 18, 2023 while shopping at a convenience store in Yongan Village. The outlet states that police searched her home and that she was placed in criminal detention on July 20 at the Shijiazhuang City Second Detention Center.
The same reporting alleges that officers entered her home without a warrant, used disputed items as evidence, and forced her fingerprints onto an inventory after she refused to sign it. Those allegations have not been independently verified.
Trial, sentence and appeal
Minghui reports that the Zhengding County Court tried Li on March 6, 2024, with a further defense hearing on March 21. On March 31, 2025, the court sentenced her to five years and six months in prison and fined her 30,000 yuan. The report states that Li appealed.
