Wang Dongxia (王东霞) is a former coal company employee from Pingdingshan City, Henan Province. According to a Minghui report published on November 25, 2022, she was 57 at that time, had begun practicing Falun Gong in October 1997, and was arrested on October 17, 2021.
The same report says her family had learned that she had been sentenced to five years in prison and fined 10,000 yuan. It did not identify the sentencing court, verdict date, charge, prison, appeal status, or exact term dates, and stated that other case details were unclear.
Rights Defense Network / 维权网 Issue 131 dated August 31, 2026 places 王东霞 in its five-year sentence group, consistent with the reported sentence. That roster placement does not independently establish her current whereabouts.
Evidence limits
The substantive case narrative comes from a single Minghui report, a Falun Gong-affiliated outlet. No official court judgment, state-media account, or independent mainstream-media report was located. Her current status and whereabouts are unconfirmed, and no release date is inferred.
Identity caution: a different Wang Dongxia (王东霞) from Jiamusi City, Heilongjiang Province died in 2005. That is a different person and is not merged with the Pingdingshan case documented here.
