(Clearwisdom.net) Unlawful authorities from Boye County in Hebei Province searched and ransacked practitioners' homes, arrested practitioners, and illegally sentenced them to labor camps. The following are some accounts of the persecution of practitioners.
Yang Sibao is a female practitioner from South Liutuo Village in Boye County. In the evening of January 16, 2002 Meng Yuanbo from the county "610 Office" [a bureau specifically created by the Chinese government to persecute Falun Gong. It has absolute power over each level of administration in the Party, as well as over the political and judiciary branches] led a group of more than ten officers and charged into her house. Two days later, this practitioner used strong righteous thoughts to walk out of the brainwashing class. Authorities continued to harass her family and in the middle of May 2002, more than ten officers, from the county "610 Office" and the Politics and Law Committee, arrived at her home. Coming in three cars, the officers intended to steal her wheat; however, after seeing a brand new motorbike in the courtyard (worth 8,000 Yuan, about one year's salary for an average worker in Chinese cities), they strapped it onto their car and left abruptly.
He Qingliu is a female practitioner from Zhuangtou Village in Boye County. Around June 1, 2002, an evil police officer, Wang Qingfa employed a few thugs and charged into her home without a search warrant. They took all her valuable belongings and also stole a few bags of wheat. Such actions are worse than those of barbarians. In April and May, He Qingliu was forced into a brainwashing class. But by the end of June, she used her righteous thoughts to walk out of that hell-like place! Currently, she is living a homeless life to avoid being arrested.
Bao Lijuan is a female practitioner, and also the daughter of practitioner He Qingliu. She too was forced into the brainwashing class along with her mother. Ever since walking out of the brainwashing class using her righteous thoughts, she has also been forced into homelessness in order to avoid arrest. At the beginning of August (by the Lunar Calendar), 2002, she went home and was discovered by a few officers. They chased her into her home, and at the most dangerous moment, Bao was forced to jump out of the window and she sustained injuries to her back. When they saw that they had forced Bao Lijuan to be injured, they quickly left in a hurry.
Zhang Qiaoying is a female practitioner from Chengdong Village. She has been to Beijing a few times to appeal and was arrested twice. She used her righteous thoughts to escape and is now homeless to avoid being arrested again. The law enforcers ignored the law, arrested practitioner Zhang's husband, (a non-practitioner) and detained him in a brainwashing class for two days. They took his blankets and refused to give them back to him. On June 23, 2002, Meng Yanbo, Party Secretary of the County Politics and Law Committee, together with seven other people charged into Zhang Qiaoying's mother's home and forcefully arrested Zhang. A few days later, Zhang was able to escape for the third time using righteous thoughts. As of today, she is still unable to return home.
Jia Aiyue is a female practitioner from Yan Estate in Xiaodian Village. On April 8, 2002 (Lunar Calendar) she went to appeal at Tiananmen Square. After she was arrested, Dong Yuefeng, the Party Secretary of the Politics and Law Committee, ordered 30 to 40 people to arrive at Jia Aiyue's home in many cars. Upon arrival, they began to search her home illegally, even taking away her daughter's motorbike, which was for her marriage. They used scissors to tear their clothing and stole valuable belongings, while throwing other things onto the floor. For example, they barged into her kitchen, took out a container of cooking oil from the pantry and began spilling it everywhere, creating a mess. They also broke many dishes and pans. Even her cat was not spared, as that too was taken away. Practitioner Jia was sentenced to one year in a labor camp.
In early April of 2002, during the late hours near midnight, (Lunar Calendar), a few county and township police officers from the Feng Village in Boye County broke into a few practitioners' homes in a village in Boye County by climbing the courtyard walls. They forcefully arrested all practitioners (all female). One practitioner's sister-in-law and another practitioner's mother-in-law tried to reason with the police, but they were arrested as well. Some were fined 2000 to 3000 Yuan [Chinese currency, the monthly salary for an average Chinese urban worker is about 500 Yuan] and many relatives were also affected. There was a case where one practitioner was not taken away; however, the police took her husband instead!
After the practitioners were arrested and taken to the Feng Village Police Station, they underwent inhumane tortures. The police forbade practitioners to sleep for several days and nights and abused them as well. Under such mental duress, and not being in their right minds at the time, some practitioners admitted to their so-called "crimes". Practitioners were brutalized and tortured viciously if they did not co-operate. And of course, no family members were allowed to visit.
Liu Zhihui is a male practitioner from Li County in Hebei Province. On May 8, 2002, noontime, he delivered Dafa truth-clarifying materials to Boye County. His "Jingcheng" brand bike was stolen by authorities and he was illegally sentenced to three years in jail.
Zhao Yanxia is a female practitioner from Chengnei Village in Boye County. On May 15, 2002, for no reason, she was forcefully taken from her home by Kong Shenming, Gao Junling and Nu Zhenjing from the local police station (she was dismissed from her job in October 1999 after appealing in Beijing). Now she has been illegally sentenced to three years in labor camp.
Ma Guixian is a practitioner from Chengnei Village in Boye County. In October 1999, he was dismissed from his job after appealing in Beijing and was forced to wander the streets towards the end of 2001 in order to avoid further arrests. On May 24th, he was arrested while attempting to return home and was sentenced to three years in a labor camp. He is currently detained illegally at Baodingbali Estate Labor Camp.
Ai Fang is a female practitioner from Chengnei Village in Boye County. In October 1999, she was dismissed from her job after appealing in Beijing. On April 28, she was taken from her home and tortured, both mentally and physically, at the Feng Village Police Station. Since then, she has been sentenced to three years and is being unlawfully detained at Baodingbali Estate Labor Camp.
Li Zhengang is a male practitioner from North Liutuo Village in Boye County. He was forced to leave home with his wife, Wang Xiaofeng. On May 5th, he was arrested while obtaining some Dafa materials and was severely and brutally beaten until he could no longer stand. He has been illegally sentenced to three years and is currently detained at Baodingbali Estate Labor Camp.
Wang Xiafeng is a female practitioner from North Liutuo Village in Boye County. Due to the fact that her husband Li Zhengang was arrested, she wanted to find his whereabouts. However, she was followed and arrested as well by policemen. She used to be detained at the detention center, but in July with Master's help, she was able to use righteous thoughts to walk out of there. Afterwards she was forced to become homeless, but she still diligently validated the Fa to people. A month ago however, she was arrested again and is now being detained at the Mancheng County Police Station.
