Fifteen thousand signatures and thumbprints

On July 6, Qin and her three lawyers tried one last location to appeal: the National People’s Congress Standing Committee Petitions Bureau. However, the judicial police at the door interrogated them and refused to let them, maintaining that a ruling from the Heilongjiang Province High Court was required.

Qin has persisted for a year and a half trying to clear the injustice done to her father, but has come across numerous hurdles within the Chinese Communist Party’s legal system. However, Qin expressed that she will not give up. She will continue to demand justice for her family until she brings her case to the highest court in China, the Supreme People’s Court.
