According to a Public Security Administration law, administrative detention should not be longer than 15 days; however, police have not release him.

3. [Xiaogan Area, Hubei Province] Persecution Facts of Some Practitioners in the Xiaogan Area

Practitioner Ms. Liu Qunfang from the Xiaogan Area, Hubei Province was sentenced to three years of forced labor. She is being held in the No.7 Team of the No.4 Division at the Shayang Fanjiatai Prison. Ms. Liu was supposed to be released in May 2005, but her detention term was extended by three months. Her family wanted to see her; however, the police attempted to extort 100,000 Yuan from them to grant the visit. So far the family has not gotten permission for the visit because they don't have the money.

On the morning of April 25, 2005, Leng Yanlan, a female officer from the Political and Security Team in the Xiaonan Police Department, Xiaogan Area, Hubei Province, led a group of police officers to break into the home of practitioner Ms. Yin Yulan and ransack her home. They also attempted to arrest Ms. Yin. They misled her by telling her that they would send her to a hospital. Ms. Yin shouted loudly for help and refused to comply with the arrest. The officers, led by Leng Yanlan, were afraid that people in the vicinity would know of the arrest attempt, so they tried to cover Ms. Yin's mouth. Finally, the police stole some personal belongings and left.

Mr. Yang Maoming, Yin Yulan's second son, used to be a practitioner, but he was tortured to the point of a mental breakdown after the authorities from the "610 Office" arrested him and put him into a forced brainwashing facility at Tangxun Lake near Wuhan City Hongshan Prison. He lost his employment and was forced to divorce. He has not fully recovered, so his mother, Ms. Yin, takes care of him.

8. [Jiamusi City, Heilongjiang Province] Ms. Sun Shuqin Arrested for Distributing Falun Gong Truth-clarifying Materials

9. [Shandong Province] Ms. Li Guilan Is on a Hunger Strike at the Shandong Province No.1 Women's Forced Labor Camp and Is Extremely Weak

Ms. Li Guilan, an older Falun Gong practitioner from Jinan City, Shandong Province, has been on a hunger strike since November 20, 2004, when she was sent to the Shandong Province No.1 Women's Forced Labor Camp. She was arrested for distributing truth-clarifying materials. Currently she is extremely weak and has the symptoms of severe heart disease. The forced labor camp extorted 2,000 Yuan from her family "for a medical check-up." Her two daughters felt compelled to pay the money because they worried a lot about their mother.

This case has been exposed on the minghui.ca. website. Thus, when her family went to see her, the forced labor camp officials did not give them permission for this visit. They said, "We won't let you see Li Guilan because you put her case on Internet." The police told them, "Li Guilan wants to get out by means of a hunger strike. If we release her, doesn't it mean that we think what she did is right? We won't release her, even if her health is bad."
