Person profile: Liu Yanhua (刘艳华) — Yichun, Heilongjiang
This archive preserves reporting on Liu Yanhua of Cuiluan District, Yichun, Heilongjiang. It does not concern the former vice minister or other same-name public figures.
2001–2011 — earlier detention history
Minghui’s September 2011 account reports detention in 2001 and 2003, a July 2008 arrest, a two-year reeducation-through-labor term beginning in October 2008, and alleged mistreatment during confinement. These allegations remain source-attributed.
May–November 2013 — arrest, trials and sentence
Minghui reports Liu’s May 17 arrest with Wu Wenjin, two Yichun District Court hearings in September and October, and a ten-year sentence imposed in November 2013. The outlet also reports lawyer-obstruction allegations and a December appeal.
March 19, 2014 — prison transfer
Minghui reports Liu’s transfer to Harbin Women’s Prison.
2026 roster caveat
A Rights Defense Network roster dated August 31, 2026 lists “Liu Yanhua” as in custody. No post-2023 detention record was located for this Yichun practitioner, and the roster-to-person equation was not positionally confirmed from the Chinese edition. Current custody therefore remains unresolved.
Evidence limits
No official court judgment or independent case record was located. Torture, health, and procedural allegations remain attributed to Minghui. Same-name government and academic figures are different people and are excluded.
