Ms. Wang Hui, 40, a teacher from the Juren Comprehensive School, was recently sentenced to two and a half years of forced labour, and is now in the 7th Team in Beijing Women's Forced Labour Camp.

Ms. Wang was previously sentenced to one and a half years in October 2001, and was held in the same labour camp.

When Ms. Wang was out distributing Falun Gong leaflets exposing the persecution on July 6th, 2009, she was arrested again. Approximately eight officers from the local police station, 610 Office (an organisation of special agents just for persecuting Falun Gong), and the local residential committee broke into her home and ransacked it. They confiscated Falun Gong leaflets in the process. They even searched Ms. Wang's eleven-year-old daughter's backpack, and tried to get her daughter to give evidence against her mom.

It was not until January 2010 that Ms. Wang's family members were allowed to visit her. Her husband, who suffers from severe back problems, and her mother, who is in her 70's, are leading a difficult life without her.
