Five Practitioners from Shengli Oilfield, Shandong Province Face Illegal Sentences

Oct. 21, 2005

(Clearwisdom.net) This year unlawful officials in the Shengli Oilfield conducted a joint round of persecution with special support from the "Falun Gong Specialty Team," the 610 Office and the Communist Party. The "Falun Gong Specialty Team," an agency of Shandong Province, is now stationed at the Shengli Oilfield hotel.

From the beginning of this year, a total of 31 practitioners, including Tang Zhanchen, Fu Deqing, and others, were arrested by police from Binhai Police Department, Huantai County Police Department in Zibo City, and the security division of Petroleum University. Of those 31 Dafa practitioners, Tang Zhanchen, Shen Xiaoyuan, Yang Chenghan, Yang Jian, Qiu Hongmei, He Boqing and An Yuzhi were sent to Wangcun Forced Labor Camp in Shandong Province. Yang Jianjun was in custody outside the labor camp and was later forced to become homeless after he was sentenced to forced labor but failed to pass the labor camp's required physical. Zhang Aiquan, Wang Mingyun, Yu Desheng, Zheng Ruihuan and Liu Yinglan now face labor camp sentences.

Zhang Aiquan used to be a third class police superintendent in the Shengli Oilfield Binhai Police Department traffic team. In 2000 he was put transferred to a closely monitored work group at Dongxin Oil Extraction Plant, where his wife worked, and detained for one month because he gave Dafa materials to others. In July 2000, he was sent to Wangcun Forced Labor Camp for three years.

Earlier this year, lawless officials started monitoring Zhang Aiquan's activities. On May 13, in the afternoon, they followed Zhang Aiquan to Yu Desheng's home. After Zhang picked up Dafa materials and left Yu's house the officials arrested him.

Wang Mingyun, an employee of the monitoring group at Dongxin Oil Extraction Plant, was arrested in 2000 by detective Qu and his cronies, and detained at Shihua Hotel, located at the Survey Drilling Company of Shengli Oilfield. Ms. Wang was persecuted for one month at the time.

Under pressure from higher up, Wang was dismissed from her job and became unemployed. When her husband Zhang Aiquan was arrested on May 13, the police also secretly arrested Wang Mingyun. The couple's home was searched by police who stole their computer, car and other belongings.

Yu Desheng, an employee of the Material Company of Shengli Oilfield, appealed for Falun Gong, practiced Falun Gong outdoors, and distributed Falun Gong flyers after July 20, 1999, (when Jiang started the persecution). For this, he was illegally arrested and detained. In November 2000, he was sent to Wangcun for three years of forced labor.

In 2004, Yu Desheng requested his wages that had been withheld from him during his forced labor term. As a result, Mr. Yu was arrested by Diao Kefu, the chief of the Materials Company, and other lawless officials. Mr. Yu was detained inside the Materials Company, in a place that had been privately set up by the perpetrators for illegal detentions. Later, he was sent to a brainwashing center by the Shengli Oilfield "610 Office." On May 20 of this year, officials arrested Yu Desheng again, searched his home and took away his belongings, including his computer, Nine Commentaries booklets and other things.

Zhang Aiquan, Wang Mingyun and Yu Desheng were recently transferred from the County Police Department to Huantai County Detention Center. They were each brutally tortured there. When Zhang Aiquan's clothes were sent out of the center there was blood all over them. Officials also brutally beat Yu Desheng; this was seen by a witness. At the time of the arrest, Yu Desheng was beaten by the perpetrators and witnesses saw that there was blood all over his clothes. Their families are not allowed to visit them. Now, Zibo City officials are in the process of sentencing the three Dafa practitioners.

Zheng Ruihuan and Liu Yinglan are retirees from Jidong Oilfield at Tangshan City, Hebei Province, and are senior engineers. Under frequent threats, in 2002, they were forced to leave their home at Jidong Oilfield and came to Shengli Oilfield.

On July 8, 2005, at lunchtime, police from Zibo City National Security Department and from the Binhai Police Department in the Shengli Oil Field, went to their house and arrested them. They also confiscated their computers, books and other belongings. Right now, Zheng Ruihuan and Liu Yinglan are being detained at the Binhai Police Department in Dongying, Shandong Province. The law-violating police are planning to impose a secret trial and sentence them.
