I'm not sorry to say this , I don't trust anything this paper says simply because it is an attempt to beat the cold war drum

The US based foundation the article is citing said they have a source who told them this woman was sentenced to life. Other than that Radio Free Asia claims to have interviewed her coworkers to confirm she was arrested in 2018. That’s the extent of the evidence as no other information was provided. I think it’s reasonable to have doubts.
