On September 12th, 2007, Falun Gong practitioner Li Ruifeng, who is deaf and lives in Jining City, Shandong Province, was arrested by policemen (including Guo Hongtao) from Jining City while at home. They ransacked his bedroom and took away personal belongings and a computer. On the same day, another twenty Falun Gong practitioners from Shizhong District, Jining City were arrested, including Zhou Ning and Yue Lihua.
On the morning of July 14th, 2008, Li Ruifeng was secretly tried by the Shizhong District Court with no prior notice, and without informing his family. On July 24th, he was sentenced to three years in prison. Zhou Ning and Yue Lihua were sentenced to five and three years separately.
From July 20th, Li Ruifeng has been on a hunger strike, in order to protest the long-term detention. Currently, the three of them have been confined in the Jining City Detention Centre for more than one year.
