Practitioner Ms. Ma Yan from Shijinggou Village, Fengman District, Jilin City, is in her 30s. She has benefited both physically and mentally since starting to practice Falun Gong in 1998. After July 20, 1999, when the persecution began, she took the initiative to clarify the truth of Falun Gong. One time when she visited a practitioner in Changchun City's Heizuizi Forced Labor Camp, she tore all the slogans slandering Dafa off the walls in the labor camp.
In November 2000, Long Zhi, the Fengman District Shijinggou Precinct police chief, levied unjust charges against Ma Yan and sentenced her to three years of forced labor in the Heizuizi Forced Labor Camp.
While in the No. 3 Division of the labor camp, and subjected to police threats, horrific treatment, and brainwashing, Ma Yan embraced a wrongful path, taking part in persecuting Dafa practitioners and defaming Dafa, which left some stains on her own cultivation path. At the end of 2003 she was released, before the expiration of her detention term.
After returning home, free from the threats in that evil den, Ma Yan regained her clear mind. With other practitioners' help she studied the Fa and discovered her serious problems. After becoming clearheaded, she published her solemn announcement to rectify her own path. When she began making up for the losses she caused and again joined Master's Fa-rectification process, officers from the Shijinggou Police Precinct again persecuted her.
On July 15, three policemen including Ni Jun abducted Ma Yan from her downstairs neighbor and forced her to open her own home. These police officers looted a personal computer, a printer, a Dafa booklet and two exercise tapes from her home. Ni Jun forced Ma Yan to sign the confiscated items list, but Ma refused. Then Ni Jun asked her parents to sign, but Ma Yan stopped them. Afterwards, policemen tried to arrest Ma Yan, but Ma Yan protested and spoke out loudly, "Falun Dafa is great." The policemen forcibly carried her into a police car and sent her to a detention center. Ma Yan's 11-year-old daughter was left home without care.
Ma Yan has three sisters. The oldest sister, Ms. Ma Fang, was arrested; the second oldest sister, Ms. Ma Lan, had her house ransacked. The police frightened her younger sister during her pregnancy.
