Mr. Cong Wei, a Practitioner from Dalian City, Liaoning Province, Secretly Sentenced to One and a Half Years in Prison

At around 4 a.m. on September 12th, 2006, policemen from the Ganjingzi District State Security Division in Dalian City, Liaoning Province, the Ganjingzi District Police Department, and the Navy Square Police Station broke into Mr. Cong Wei's home by opening the door with a master key. They subsequently arrested him. At the moment, Mr. Cong only had his underclothes on.

During the past nine months and on January 17th, 2007 and January 24th, the Ganjingzi District Court secretly held hearings on Mr. Cong's case. The court concluded that Mr. Cong was innocent and reported his case to the upper-level court and the 610 Office¹ for examination and approval. However, Mr. Cong's family recently received a notice from the Dalian Detention Centre stating that the Ganjingzi District Court held a closed hearing on Mr. Cong's case again on June 1st, and he was sentenced to one and a half years in prison. Currently, he is detained in the Yaojia Detention Centre.

Mr. Cong's family and practitioners in Dalian City firmly refused to accept this unjust sentence from Ganjingzi District Court.

Mr. Cong's family expressed that they would appeal the case and protest the ridiculous sentence.

Bo Hai (male), a police officer from the Shujinshan Police Station, said openly, "I did make up a confession for him, but the Procuratorate accepted it. What can you do? If you are so capable, why don't you try to reverse the verdict?"
