Song Ruixiang (宋瑞香) is a Falun Gong practitioner from Daqing, Heilongjiang. The World Organization to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong (WOIPFG) reports that she was detained in September 2025 and later sentenced to two years and six months in prison plus a 16,000-yuan fine.
WOIPFG reports that Song was detained on September 8, 2025 at a market in Zhaoyuan County and taken to the Daqing No. 2 Detention Center. The organization says her arrest was approved later that month, her case was transferred to the Ranghulu District Court in November, and hearings were held on December 10, 2025 and March 11, 2026. It reports that she appealed the resulting sentence.
Status and evidence limits
Rights Defense Network Issue 131, dated August 31, 2026, lists 宋瑞香 in its two-years-six-months sentence group. The post-sentencing detention facility and current condition are not stated in the located sources, and no release date is computed.
WOIPFG is Falun Gong-affiliated; its account of Song’s health deterioration, family history, earlier detentions, and alleged mistreatment is source-attributed and has not been independently corroborated by a court record or independent press. The Rights Defense Network source roster and its mirrors are one evidence lineage, not multiple confirmations.
