Picture of Zhang Lianying and her infant daughter
Ms. Zhang Lianying has lived by the principles Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance during the seven years of ruthless persecution of Falun Gong practitioners by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). She has suffered arrest, detainment, and severe persecution during that time. Since 1999, when the persecution began, she has been arrested seven or eight times and narrowly escaped death. She thus learned to appreciate life's preciousness and the kindness of human nature. Not only did she shower her little daughter with love, but also gave the same care to all sentient beings. As a Dafa practitioner, she cultivates benevolence, unselfishness, and the steadfastness of love. Because she exposes the CCP's lies and wants to help Chinese people who are being deceived by the CCP, she has endured many tribulations.
While imprisoned at the Jiamusi Women's Forced Labor Camp in Heilongjiang Province, Zhang Lianying suffered physical and mental persecution. Attempting to force her to give up her belief, police tortured and tormented her inhumanely. They tied her on a bench for a long time, and then to a death bed for more than forty days. They shocked her with electric batons, beat her cruelly, force-fed her savagely, and locked her in a damp moldy room. She suffered many more types of torture as well. Guo Zhenshan, head of political affairs at the Jiamusi Labor Camp, once grabbed her hair and threw her head violently against the bed board. He also pressed his hands on her mouth and nose to prevent her from breathing. Ms. Zhang went on a hunger strike for more than eighty days to protest the persecution. When she was on the verge of death, police took her back to a local police station in Beijing.
In 2002, National Security once again arrested her and took her to the Tongzhou Brainwashing Center, the Daxing Legality Training Center and the Public Security Hospital in Beijing. Again she was inhumanely persecuted. After being released, the 610 Office, police and neighborhood watch continued to keep her under surveillance and harassed her family constantly.
Regardless of her perilous situation, Zhang Lianying exposed the truth about the persecution and told the truth about the goodness of Dafa. She used the facts to expose the lies fabricated by the CCP. With a kind and tolerant mind, she tried to keep Chinese people from being deceived.
Ms. Zhang Lianying's husband, Mr. Niu Jinping, has also been persecuted by the CCP. He was sent to a mental hospital and was injected with potent drugs. Like his wife, he firmly believes in Dafa and believes that Dafa gives people hope.
After suffering so much, this couple later had a lovely daughter. The beautiful child was not aware of the violence in the outside world.
At 8:30 a.m. on June 14, 2005, while Ms. Zhang Lianying was feeding her daughter, Wang Jing, head of the Xiangheryuan Police Station, and a dozen policemen broke into her home. After ransacking her home and without finding any of the evidence they were looking for, they dragged her into a police vehicle, disregarding the crying unweaned baby, and detained her at the Zhaoyang Region Detention Center. On June 30, 2005, she was sentenced to two years and six months of forced labor and taken to the Beijing Reeducation Bureau's Tuanhe Dispatch Center. Ms. Zhang went on a hunger strike to protest the persecution.
At the dispatch center, policewoman Zhang Dongmei ordered criminal prisoners to persecute her. They used flyswatters to whip her for more than ten hours daily. She was forbidden to wash or use the toilet. Thus, she soiled her underpants. She was not even allowed to use the restroom during her period. Besides these inhumane tortures, she was also deprived of sleep. The prisoners hung her from a rope attached to the ceiling for a long time, with the tip of her toes barely touching the ground. She was also tied to a bench in a twisted position for a long time. They savagely beat her for twenty-four hours without stopping, resulting in wounds covering her body. Her head and face sustained several cuts three centimeters deep. Her eyes were bleeding and she had become deaf, and her face was distorted beyond recognition. She now has difficulty walking and becomes absent-minded. Her life is in grave danger.
It has been more than a year since Ms. Zhang Lianying was arrested and her baby has been deprived of her motherly love. Her husband tried to seek redress of this injustice, but was threatened by the CCP's National Security, Public Security, 610 Offices and the neighborhood watch. Ms. Zhang suffered inhumane and cruel persecution every minute of these four hundred days and nights. Her daughter is without the motherly care so important for an infant. Her husband worries about his wife and bears the heavy burden of raising their daughter.
During the seven years of persecution, besides infants being deprived of motherly love and care, many Dafa practitioners, who believe in Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance, have been arrested and imprisoned, or even tortured to death. Many innocent children are deprived of the love of their parents. Those whose parents have died because the CCP harvested their organs for profit are suffering deep distress. These children no longer know their parents. The end of the wicked CCP is near and karmic retribution for their wicked acts is in the making.
