Bu Dongwei, a Falun Gong practitioner who worked for the US-based NGO, the Asia Foundation, is serving two and a half years Re-education Through Labour (RTL) at the Tuanhe facility in Beijing. What did he do? He exercised his right to freedom of religious belief. With no trial, he was sent to RTL for "resisting the implementation of national laws" and "disturbing social order". The evidence was a verbal confession and 80 copies of Falun Gong literature the police said they discovered in his home.
