Li Wenhua / 李文华
Li Wenhua (李文华), born in 1964, is a Falun Gong practitioner from Jilin City in Jilin Province.
On June 4, 2023, she was detained as part of a coordinated operation in which police from multiple districts of Jilin City, together with domestic-security police and local “610” office personnel, arrested more than thirty Falun Gong practitioners in a single day, according to a report by Minghui. She was held in the Jilin City Detention Center, and family members were given no information about her case beyond being allowed to deposit clothing and money for her.
On December 4, 2023, the Chuanying District Court in Jilin City tried her case without notifying her family in advance, according to the same report. Her family was subsequently told she had been sentenced to four years in prison; the court also imposed a fine of 3,000 yuan. The specific charge was not recorded. On January 25, 2024, she was transferred to the Jilin Provincial Women’s Prison in Changchun to serve the sentence. The recorded sentence runs through June 3, 2027.
She is married to Zheng Fengxiang (郑凤祥); the couple’s family was reported to have practiced Falun Gong since the early 2000s and to have faced repeated detention over the years, including a 2006 detention of Li Wenhua in the Changchun Heizuizi Re-education Through Labor facility, according to the report. These details are attributed to the reporting outlet and have not been independently verified.
Status note: her custody status beyond the January 2024 report is not independently confirmed.
