Li Zhenying (李珍英)

Li Zhenying (李珍英) is a Falun Gong practitioner from Fucheng County, Hengshui City, Hebei Province, reported to be serving a four-year prison sentence after a 2025 conviction in Ningjin County, Shandong.

A notice by the World Organization to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong (WOIPFG) reports that Li was detained at her home on June 19, 2024 as part of a coordinated six-person case, then held at the Dezhou City Detention Center. It reports formal arrest approval on July 29, 2024, indictment in early October, hearings on April 18 and August 12–13, 2025, and a four-year sentence. These case details come from WOIPFG and remain source-attributed.

The same notice says all six defendants appealed and that the Dezhou Intermediate Court rejected their appeals. WOIPFG reported that Li was transferred to Shandong Provincial Women’s Prison on February 5, 2026.

The Prisoners of Conscience database at tenchu.org records the name variant 李振英 / Li Zhenying as in prison with a projected release date of June 18, 2028, consistent with the reported four-year term. Rights Defense Network Issue 131 also lists Li Zhenying in its reported in-custody universe.

Name note: the detailed case notice uses 李珍英, while the prisoner database uses 李振英. This profile records both rather than resolving the variant by assumption.

Do not merge: a different person named 李振英 — a 45-year-old man documented as killed in Beijing on June 3, 1989 — is unrelated to this case.
