Case Details and Profile of Shandong Falun Gong Practitioner Ms. Hao Guangping, Sentenced to 1 Year and 7 Months
On August 28, 2026, this website learned of the case details and profile of Ms. Hao Guangping, a Shandong Falun Gong practitioner sentenced to 1 year and 7 months, and is now reporting them as follows:
Hao Guangping: A female Falun Gong practitioner from Shandong, nearly 70 years old in 2026. On January 6, 2026, after a long period of tracking and monitoring Falun Gong practitioners, the Licheng District Public Security Bureau of Jinan City, Shandong Province, carried out a coordinated arrest operation. At least 10 Falun Gong practitioners were abducted for collectively studying the book Zhuan Falun. Hao Guangping was one of them. After her arrest, she was detained at the Jinan City Detention Center.
Because the Chinese Communist Party’s public security system has tightly blocked information about the persecution, it was not learned until August 2026 that Ms. Hao Guangping had been secretly sentenced by the Zhangqiu Court to 1 year and 7 months in prison and extorted a fine of 5,000 yuan. The entire judicial process remains unknown. End of sentence: August 5, 2027.

Chow Hang-tung: Statement of Plea
The author rejects a 206-page judgment that, they argue, treats belief in ending one-party dictatorship as unconstitutional and criminal. They say law cannot control thoughts, condemn obedience to authoritarian power, and describe ending one-party dictatorship as a responsibility of Hong Kong and Chinese people. The author refuses to apologize for these beliefs, accepts possible imprisonment, and vows to continue pursuing democracy, accountability for the 1989 massacre and a democratic Hong Kong and China.
