Biography

Wang Jianbing worked on labor and occupational-disease support and helped organize civic gatherings.[2][1]

Wang supported workers with occupational diseases and people with disabilities and advocated against harassment. Amnesty records regular Guangzhou gatherings discussing social justice, personal experiences and rights.[2]

Amnesty identifies weekly gatherings, a nonviolence course and online posts among prosecution materials and argues that these activities were treated as security threats.[2][1]

Case Summary

Amnesty records Guangzhou custody on September 19, 2021, restricted family contact and questioning and searches affecting friends. In June 2024 Wang received three and a half years and Huang five. Amnesty gives June 14 for sentencing; the government reply gives June 13.[2][1]

Amnesty’s March 18, 2025 statement confirms release and reports police escort to his parents’ home in Gansu rather than permission to return to Guangzhou. It also records dismissed appeals and supplementary political-rights restrictions.[1]
