Person profile: Lin Chunzi (林春子)
This archive preserves reporting on Lin Chunzi, a Falun Gong practitioner from Hailin City, Heilongjiang Province.
2004–2007 — prison term
A 2005 Clearwisdom/Minghui report lists Lin among Falun Gong practitioners held in Heilongjiang Women’s Prison. Minghui’s later profile says she had been transferred to Harbin Women’s Prison in August 2004 and released in September 2007.
2011 — identity and historical profile
Minghui’s March 2011 profile confirms the Chinese name 林春子, identifies Lin as a Korean-ethnicity farmer from Hailin, and recounts detention history beginning in 1999. It includes allegations of torture and family impact; those details remain attributed to the outlet.
2021–2024 — four-year sentence and re-imprisonment
Minghui reported in August 2024 that Lin had been arrested June 10, 2021, sentenced to four years, initially permitted to serve outside prison because of health, and then re-arrested February 11, 2023 and taken to Heilongjiang Province Women’s Prison. It reported serious health decline, including wheelchair use and body weight under 80 pounds.
