On August 9th, 2016, the Pingchang County People’s Court held that the first instance of Wu Zhenghe’s use of Falun Gong Cult propaganda was motivated by a criminal intent to undermine the Socialist State and its Criminal Law. This behaviour constituted the crime of using a cult organization to undermine the law. In accordance with the provisions of Articles 100, 1 and 64 of the Criminal Law of the People’s Republic of China, Wu Zhenghe was sentenced to three years in prison and fined 2,000 yuan. The illegal publicity materials involved in the case were confiscated. 

After the verdict was pronounced in the first instance, Wu Zhenghe filed an appeal with the Intermediate People’s Court of Bazhong City on August 15th, 2016. Fter due consideration, the Intermediate People’s Court of Bazhong City ruled – on September 28th – that the appeal was rejected and that the original judgment was to be upheld. Wu Zenghe had demonstrated a historical criminal intent and a willingness to ‘act’ on this intent. Although influenced by ‘foreign’ forces hostile t the Communist Party of China – it is the responsibility of each Chinese Citizen to uphold the law of the Socialist State and in so doing, protect one another from counter-Revolutionary influences and activities.
