Reports from Falun Gong-affiliated sources describe Qi, a man from Jinan City’s Laiwu District in Shandong Province, as a practitioner of Falun Gong detained in June 2023. According to Minghui.org, police arrested him on June 19, 2023; he was tried by the Laiwu District Court on August 14 and sentenced on September 25 to four years in prison with a 10,000-yuan fine. His appeal was denied by the Jinan City Intermediate Court on November 9, 2023. He was taken back into custody on December 18, 2023, and admitted to Shandong Prison in Jinan on December 20.

Minghui.org reported in May 2024 that Qi had been on hunger strike since his admission to prison and that his family had applied for medical parole; a June 2024 report said he had been moved to the Jinan Prison Hospital, and an August 2024 report described him as emaciated and unable to stand during a July family visit. No reports on his condition after August 2024 have been located. His current status is not independently confirmed beyond the roster’s reported-custody listing.
