At Least 23 Falun Gong Practitioners Still Held in Yunnan Province Second Women’s Prison and Are Serving 2-10 Years for Their Faith

March 26, 2026 |   By a Minghui correspondent in Yunnan Province, China

(Minghui.org) The Yunnan Province Second Women’s Prison was initially designated to incarcerate female felons. After the communist regime began to persecute Falun Gong in July 1999, the prison also became a place where female practitioners were imprisoned and tortured for exercising their constitutional right to freedom of belief.

Minghui.org previously reported on the various forms of torture used on jailed Falun Gong practitioners, including savage beatings and involuntary drug administration. Some practitioners died while still serving time in the prison or after they were released. Many others sustained severe physical and mental damage. See the related reports for detailed torture methods and concrete cases of practitioners abused in the prison.
