(Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Li Qingzhen, female, 44 years old, lives in Daqing Babai Shang. Her husband works for the Well Cementation Team of the Heilongjiang Daqing Oil Drilling Company. In 2000, the company forced Falun Gong practitioners to pay 5,000Yuan "bail" (the average monthly income in urban areas of China is about 500 Yuan; in rural areas the earnings are a mere 200 Yuan, or $23.50). If anyone did not pay the money, he/she would not be allowed to go to work. Meanwhile, practitioners' ID cards were withheld for over one year. On April 28, 2001, with some other practitioners, Li Qingzhen went to Mingshui County to tell people the truth about Falun Dafa. They were detained by persons from the Mingshui County Police Station, and their vehicle was confiscated. Li Qingzhen was arrested on August 21. In October, she was illegally sentenced to seven years in prison. During the entire trial, the court did not allow the practitioners to get a defense attorney.

In October 2000, she was on her way to Beijing to appeal for Dafa, but was intercepted by police in Shanhaiguan, and was illegally detained for 15 days. Later she was illegally detained by her work unit until January 2001. Because she strongly protested against this kind of illegal detention and refused to guarantee not to go to Beijing to appeal, her work unit sent her to the detention center, where she was detained for nine days. After that, she was taken to a labor camp for a one-year forced labor sentence. On July 16, 2001, she once again went to Beijing to appeal and was arrested for holding up a banner. Because she refused to tell her name and address, she was beaten mercilessly and interrogated by Qianmen Police Station authorities for about 2 hours. During this period, the police choked, beat, kicked, and hit her with wooden boards, grasped her hair and dragged her on the ground, hit her head against the wall, and slapped her cheeks. Because of the brutal abuse, she had a hard time walking. The bruises on her body did not disappear until one month later. Later, she was again beaten, this time by the people in the local liaison office in Beijing, and her nose bled continuously.
After being escorted back, she was detained in the custodial center for 32 days, and in the detention center for 22 days. During this time, she went on a 47-day hunger strike to protest, and was insulted and force-fed. In the labor camp, because she refused to answer roll call, the warden ordered some criminals to beat her and another practitioner who also refused to answer. Later, she was illegally sentenced to two years of forced labor. Because she did not pass their physical examination, they let her out on bail for medical treatment. At the end of December 2001, she was illegally arrested when she was visiting a practitioner's home and detained at the city detention center.
