Zhou Caixai, female, 50, is the general manager of Jiaozhou City Rubber Production Company, and also happens to be the general secretary of the company's Communist Party branch. For the past thirty years, she has dedicated herself to work in local-owned businesses, and has held them together as a manager for the last twenty years. When it comes to work, she has always held herself to an extremely high standard, yet she has always been kind and understanding toward the people who work for her. She conducts herself in a virtuous manner, and is highly regarded as an excellent manager. She has a terrific family and is well liked by her neighbors. Her reputation as a devoted wife and loving mother is well known in and around her community.
In 1996, she began to cultivate herself in Falun Dafa because she was suffering from a number of illnesses, and no medicine could help to alleviate her suffering. Both her body and her spirit improved a great deal through her cultivation. The medical problems that she had endured, including chronic gynecological problems, dizziness, and severe headaches, all disappeared without any further medical intervention. In order to let more people benefit from cultivating in Dafa and to make a contribution to society, General Manager Zhou often used her spare time to voluntarily spread Dafa. Her efforts led many people to Dafa, who through their cultivation saw improvements in their own health. This is a well-known fact in the city of Jiaozhou. Soon afterwards, she volunteered to act as the head of the Jiaozhou Falun Dafa Assistance Center.
On May 13th of this year, World Falun Dafa Day, Zhou Caixia decided to travel to Beijing to appeal to the government on behalf of Dafa. She overcame a great deal of difficulties in doing so, and all she wanted to do was to speak her mind and let the leaders of China know that "Falun Dafa is good." Because of this, she was arrested and placed in Room 16 of the 13th Detention Center in Beijing. She refused to tell police her name and started a hunger strike which lasted 7 days. In the end, the police recognized her from the information on the Internet. On May 26th, she was sent back to Jiaozhou. Her actions made some people in the city government very angry. She was interrogated continuously for three whole days. In the midst of her ten-day hunger strike, she was locked into the local mental hospital against her will. She has been forced to endure shots, medicines and other treatment designed for treating mental patients.
Because there were always people going to the mental hospital to visit her and other Dafa practitioners who are confined there, police suddenly decided to set up a station in the mental hospital. They were prepared to arrest anybody who dared to visit them. Some policewomen even disguised themselves with nurses' uniforms, so they could eavesdrop on the conversations of the Dafa practitioners and learn their "motives and future actions."
Recently, a few words began to spread among the people of Jiaozhou:
The Jiaozhou Policemen have their hands full -
They do not stay in their police stations, but take over the mental hospital.
The practitioners are treated as elephants:
They are pushed down and tranquilized.
When they wake up, their arms and legs are tied.
They are put into jail and no visitor is allowed.
They are given tranquilizers and anti-depressant medications,
Who cares whether the practitioners have human rights or not?
Wear you down until you fall apart,
Wear you down until you can't walk.
They are only afraid that you are going to Beijing,
They are only afraid that you continue your cultivation.
They are only afraid of your determined heart,
They are only afraid of your strong mind.
Let's see who can cross this blockade!
According to an information source, a new psychiatric drug will be imported from abroad in recent days. Experiments will be conducted on the practitioners to test how effective it is. Practitioners who are being held in psychiatry hospitals will face new waves of suffering.
