Disambiguation record (do not merge)
The CHRD database also holds a separate record for a namesake: 王红霞, born 1964 in Anyue County, Ziyang City, Sichuan, formerly an English teacher, arrested December 12, 2012, sentenced to twelve years in October 2013 by the Jianyang County Court, term through November 2024, held at the Sichuan Provincial Women’s Prison. That record does not describe the Fushun person and must not be attached to this profile.
Evidentiary limitations
No official court judgment or state-media record of this case has been located. The formal charge in the 2024 case was not publicly reported; the trial is described by sources as a secret proceeding.
