(Minghui.org) Falun Gong practitioner Mr. Chang Xinqin, a teacher, was arraigned by the Ruzhou Procuratorate in early August and is scheduled to be prosecuted.

Mr. Chang was reported and illegally arrested by officers from the Wangzhai Police Station for distributing Shen Yun performance DVDs at outlying villages on June 22, 2014. His home was ransacked by Cheng Jianyang, captain of the Ruzhou Domestic Security Division, and three police officers. They confiscated a desktop and a laptop computer and personal belongings. He is being held at the Ruzhou Detention Center.

Persecuted Repeatedly

Mr. Chang, 50, has been repeatedly persecuted for speaking to people about Falun Gong over the past ten years. He had been imprisoned for more than six years.
