(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Li Lijuan from Qiqihar City, Heilongjiang Province was sentenced to three years in prison in January of 2011.
Ms. Li Lijuan, 46, is an ophthalmologist at the Qiqihar City Second Hospital. She began to practice Falun Dafa in 2001. During the past ten years, she was persecuted several times. Because Ms. Li told the people around her, including her colleagues and patients, about Falun Gong and the facts about the persecution of Falun Gong, the hospital officials kept her from seeing patients.
At around noon on May 11, 2010, when Ms. Li was distributing Falun Gong truth-clarifying materials to people near Qiqihar City Third Middle School, she was reported to the authorities. The police from the Beida Street Police Station in Jianhua District, Qiqihar City illegally arrested her. In January of 2011, she was sentenced to three years in prison.
Ms. Li had been living with her mother. After her arrest, her mother's health deteriorated badly. She went to the police department to request her daughter's release, but to no avail. In October of 2010, Ms. Li's passed away.
