(Minghui.org) Two sisters in Meizhou City, Guangdong Province, were tried on February 25, 2025. for their shared faith in Falun Gong, a mind-body practice that has been persecuted by the Chinese communist regime since 1999.
Ms. Luo Suling, around 67, was arrested at the Huizhou City Train Station on July 18, 2024, while en route to Zhuhai City, which is about 200 miles south of Huizhou in the same province. The railroad police targeted her after currency with information about Falun Gong printed on the bills was found in her luggage during a security check. She was detained in Huizhou, and the Huizhou police traveled about 180 miles north to her home in Meizhou to raid her place three times.
Her younger sister, Ms. Luo Suya, around 60, was arrested at home by four officers from Huizhou City at 7 a.m. on July 30, 2024. A copy of Zhuan Falun (the main teaching of Falun Gong), a media player, and 100 yuan with Falun Gong information printed on the bills were confiscated. The police promised to release her three days later, but kept her in custody when the time was up.
Both sisters were later taken back to Meizhou and are now being held in Chengdong Detention Center. Their arrests were formally approved by the Meijiang District Procuratorate on August 23, 2024.
The sisters’ case was later reassigned to the Meixian District. They stood trial in the Meixian District Court on February 25, 2025, judge Wei Donghua presiding. Judges Zhang Qiaoling and Zhang Wei, clerk Lin Yue, and prosecutor Guo Xiuxia from the Meixian District Procuratorate were also present. Other details of the hearing are unclear.
