Jan. 25, 2006

(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Zhao Tingyun from Xinxiang City, Henan Province died on the ninth day of being in police custody. On January 6, 2006, Zhao Tingyun went to the home of practitioner Li Beiping near the Hongqi Hospital in Xinxiang City. Police officers who were staking out Li Beiping's home illegally arrested Ms. Zhao and put her in custody. She held a hunger strike to protest the persecution and was savagely force-fed. She died on the ninth day of detention. The police reported that Ms. Zhao died around 5:00 a.m. on January 15.

Zhao Tingyun was born in 1951 and had worked at the Xinxiang City Bus Factory but was laid off and lived at the factory family dormitory. She started practicing Dafa in January 1998 and was detained several times after the persecution of Dafa began on July 20, 1999.

On November 7, 2002, Zhao Tingyun was arrested by local police on the way to deliver food to her husband at work. She was incarcerated at the Xinxiang City Detention Center. The police searched her and took the keys to her home from her. They ransacked her home and took her son's computer, which was bought while he was studying at a university. They also took some Dafa materials and Dafa books. Political heads Chen, Liu Desheng and Qin, a hired person, were the ones who ransacked her home. Zhao Tingyun and other Dafa practitioners held at the Xinxiang Detention Center went on group hunger strike for 26 days to protest the persecution. They were force-fed with saturated saline solution.

During the Chinese New Year on February 4, 2005, Zhao Tingyun and her family went to their hometown for the celebration. They clarified the truth about Dafa on their way and were reported to the police. Officers from the Nanhuan Police Department in Xinxiang City arrested and body-searched them.

Around 5:00 p.m. on January 6, agents from the Xinxiang City 610 Office, from the Hongqi Police Department and from the Xidajie Police Department broke into the home of practitioner Li Beiping. They arrested Li Beiping and her nanny Pan Xuehui and arrested Zhou Qing outside Li Beipings' home. They took money and many other items. At the same time, officials from the Weibei Police Department in the Weibin District arrested practitioners Huang Zhiqiang and his wife Li Xiurong, also from Xinxiang City, from their home.

Right now, Li Beiping, Huang Zhiqiang, Li Xiurong and other practitioners are being held at the Xinxiang City Custody Center.
