Attorney Liu Ruping, from Shuntian Law Firm in Jinan City, Shandong Province, was recently sent for 15 months of forced labor because he published an article on the Internet urging the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) to stop the practice of brainwashing Falun Gong practitioners. He is currently detained at the Wangchun Forced Labor Camp in Shangdong Province.

On November 25, 2005 Liu Ruping published an article entitled "Immediately Stop Brainwashing Falun Gong Practitioners" on a website based outside of China. The article stated that Falun Gong practitioners [in China] are violently taken to brainwashing centers and fined as much as 100 yuan a day for "training [brainwashing] fees." He revealed that the practitioners could be released any time if they gave up their faith or cursed the founder of Falun Gong. Otherwise they face jail terms, or extensions of their existing labor camp terms.
