Xu Jingbo (许静波) — Person Profile
Xu Jingbo (许静波) is a Falun Gong practitioner from Siping City, Jilin Province. She is recorded as serving a prison sentence of five years and six months in connection with her practice of Falun Gong. The Rights Defense Network’s (维权网) monthly political-prisoners report (Issue 131, August 31, 2026) lists her in its 5-years-6-months-sentence band, confirming she remains in custody serving her term as of that date.
The case
A report by Minghui, a Falun Gong-affiliated outlet, describes Xu Jingbo of Siping as having been sentenced to five and a half years, and states that this was not her first sentence — she had been sentenced twice before for her Falun Gong practice. The full article text was not retrieved during research; only the headline-level facts were located, so the details remain unconfirmed pending a direct read.
Status and evidentiary limits
As of August 31, 2026, Xu Jingbo was recorded as in custody serving a 5-years-6-months sentence. No sentence start or end date is publicly documented, and no court, charge, or detention facility is named in the available sources. The available record does not support calculating a release date. The roster is the compilers’ dated claim of custody; it is treated here as a dated source claim, not an independently verified finding. Do-not-merge: 许那 (Xu Na) — a different Issue 131 entry in the 8-year group, a Beijing artist — is not this person; index adjacency is alphabetical only. Do not adopt homophone character forms such as 徐晶波 or 徐静波.
