A Falun Gong practitioner from Changchun, Jilin Province, sentenced to one and a half years in prison in 2023. Items are listed chronologically with source provenance.
2022–2023: Detention, trial, and sentencing
- Minghui (Chinese edition), August 31, 2023 — "长春法轮功学员杨云杰女士遭非法判刑" — Reports Yang's detention on July 4, 2022, the November 21, 2022 hearing at the Kuancheng District Court, the January 2023 sentence of one and a half years, her unsuccessful appeal, and her transfer to the Jilin Province Women's Prison in August 2023. Source: Falun Gong-affiliated monitoring organization; advocacy outlet — case facts attributed, not independently verified.
- Minghui (English edition), September 4, 2023 — "55-Year-Old Jilin Resident Sentenced to 1.5 Years for Practicing Falun Gong" — English account of the same case: June 13, 2022 detention and June 15 release, July 4, 2022 re-arrest, January 2023 sentencing, August 11, 2023 transfer to Jilin Province Women's Prison. The Chinese edition links this as its English version.
2024: Reported release
- Minghui (Chinese edition), February 24, 2024 — "二零二四年二月二十四日大陆综合消息" — Notes under the heading "长春法轮功学员杨云杰被冤判一年半入狱 现已回家" that Yang returned home before the 2024 Chinese New Year.
Prisoner-database record
- Chinese Human Rights Defenders (CHRD), "Portraits of Defenders" prisoner database, record entered 2025-02-11 — Database entry for 杨云杰 / Yang Yunjie (b. 1968, female): taken July 4, 2022; charge unknown; 1 year 6 months; Jilin Provincial Women's Prison; release January 3, 2024; case summary with links to the two Minghui reports above. Source: recognized human-rights NGO. Accessed via the database's public search interface, October 10, 2026.
Roster listing (status caveat)
- Rights Defense Network (维权网), monthly report on mainland China's in-custody political prisoners and prisoners of conscience, August 31, 2026 (Issue 131) — Lists 杨云杰 in the "sentenced to up to 2 years" group. Caveat: this roster classifies her as in custody as of August 2026, which conflicts with the February 2024 release report above; the discrepancy is unresolved.
Related items not firmly attributable
- Two Minghui items from 2006–2007 concerning a "Yang Yunjie" in Tahe County (a 2006 arrest report and a 2007 forced-labor report) may describe the same person's earlier persecution — Yang is a Tahe County native and her biography notes an earlier two-year forced-labor term — but the identity link cannot be firmly established, so they are recorded here as weak matches only.
Do-not-merge note: the 2006 "Mr. Yang Yunjie" Tahe arrest item is excluded (gender mismatch; unanchorable). 王云杰, 贺云杰, 常云杰 and 杨智渊 are separate persons.
