Nobly Upholding Justice in Court

Falun Dafa practitioner Li Guiqin from Baiquan Town, Dongliao County, Liaoyuan City, Jilin Province, was kidnapped from her home on March 15, 2002 by the police from Dongliao County, and was then illegally detained.

She resisted the illegal detention and persecution by the evil people. In May 2002, Dongliao County court carried out an illegal trial against seven practitioners including Li Guiqin. Without any legal procedure, informing the family members of the practitioners, or allowing any lawyer to defend the practitioners, the court carried out a secret, illegal trial. Falun Dafa practitioner Li Guiqin defended herself with the force of justice in the court, "Falun Dafa is a righteous cultivation way. Being a good person does not constitute guilt, and following 'Truthfulness, Benevolence, Tolerance' is not a crime. Your persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners is a criminal act. Persecution of Falun Dafa and Falun Dafa practitioners is illegal. We did not violate the law."

The court carried out the sentence, ignoring the practitioners' defence. Li Guiqin refused to sign the court verdict and tore up the verdict in the court. She shouted many times, "Falun Dafa is good! Falun Dafa is righteous! Restore Teacher's innocent reputation! Restore Falun Dafa's good name! It is not wrong to be a good person!" This held up the trial proceedings. The judge had to give permission for Li Guiqin to write a petition there in the court. The Falun Dafa practitioner's righteous thoughts and actions frightened the evil persecutors.

Falun Dafa practitioner Li Guiqin was illegally sentenced to 4 years imprisonment, and is now illegally detained in Jilin Province Women's Prison.
