(Clearwisdom.net) In 2002, Falun Gong practitioner Zhang Min from Weifang City, Shandong Province was reported to the authorities when she was distributing truth clarification flyers. She escaped, but her husband Chu Zhiming, a non-practitioner, was taken away by police. Chu Zhiming could not bear the persecution and took poison to commit suicide. In order to avoid further persecution, Zhang Min left home and is currently still homeless. The following are the details of what happened.
One day in 2002, Zhang Min took some truth clarification flyers and went with her husband to HougouVillage to buy wool. While her husband was buying the wool, she went to distribute the flyers. When she came to a house, an old woman came out. Zhang Min said to the old woman, "Ma'am, here is a truth clarification flyer for you. I am a Falun Gong practitioner and we strive to be good people." The old woman replied, "I cannot read, but my daughter-in-law can. Please come with me." Then a woman and a man came out of the house. The man, whose name is Zhang Shubin, said, "I specialize in arresting Falun Gong practitioners." He snatched her bag, which contained the truth clarification flyers, and went to make a call to 110 (equivalent to "911" in the U.S.). Meanwhile, Zhang Min took the opportunity to escape. Unfortunately, her husband Chu Zhiming was kidnapped. Both he and his car were kept in custody. He wasn't released until several days later. Because of the torment he suffered while in detention, he became mentally disoriented. He committed suicide by taking a certain kind of poison. A once happy family was thus destroyed. Zhang Min's mother-in-law asked her family members to go to the police station to request the return of their car. To their surprise, the police demanded a certain amount of money before they would return it. Chu Zhiming's family begged the police not to demand money. In the end, the head of the police station asked for 700 yuan and returned the car. Zhang Shubin was then rewarded with 500 yuan.
