(Clearwisdom.net) In February 2005, practitioner Mr. Feng Bingkun was illegally arrested by the police in his hometown in the Zhenlong District, Zengcheng City. In May 2005, the court in Zengcheng City sentenced him to three years and five months in jail. His sentence will be completed on May 20, 2008. The Zhenlong Town Police Station is now a part of Zhenlong Police Station in Jiulong Town, Luogang District, Guangzhou City.

According to Chinese law, when a person is sentenced, local police must give the verdict to the family so that family members can go see the person in prison. But the local police dared not deliver the verdict to Mr. Feng Bingkun's family. They were afraid of leaving evidence of their illegal persecution. The family only received a short letter from Mr. Feng in March 2006, during the first two years while he was in prison. All the goods and letters the family had sent to him at the address on his letter were returned. His poor parents have to live on their pension of less than 100 yuan each month. Sometimes they don’t even have the money to buy rice. They didn't have the resources to search out where he was imprisoned and whether he was alive or not.

In December 2006, with the help of some kind-hearted people, Feng Bingkun’s elderly parents managed to go to Sihui Prison in Jiguangtang Town, Sihui County, Guangdong Province. They could only talk to their son through a phone with a thick screen separating them. The whole meeting was videotaped. With the police monitoring them all the time, they were not able to find out more about the persecution of practitioners in Sihui Prison, but according to Feng Bingkun, kicking and beating were the normal practice. In Sihui Prison non-practitioner inmates can meet with their families twice to three times a month and can phone their families from prison. They also can have meals with their families in the prison’s meeting hall. But practitioners are strictly monitored and supervised. They can only see their family once a month at the most. Phone calls and letters to family are prohibited. Letters and packages sent by their families are all returned without exception. Even the clothes and the shoes (except underwear) the family members personally bring to them are returned.

The Party persecutes practitioners unscrupulously and damages their dignity, deprives them of their basic rights, economically disadvantages them, and even takes their lives. They persecute them to the extent that "no means is too excessive." But they fear that the Chinese people and the world's people will come to know the truth, so they try to block information level by level.

Police and officials from the 610 Office persecuted Feng Bingkun’s wife, Ms. Tang Jinai, from Zhenglong Town, Zengcheng City, many times. (Please refer to the article published on April 7, 2005, on Minghui/Clearwisdom. The article entitled "Police Force Pregnant Falun Gong Practitioner from Zengcheng, Guangdong Province to Undergo an Abortion" at http://www.clearwisdom.net/emh/articles/2005/4/23/59988.html). After Mr. Feng was arrested, his wife and one-year-old child had to abandon their home and live elsewhere. They had to wander around, had no source of income, and had to rely on the help of friends and patrons. They have to constantly change places and live at the mercy of others. In order to please their superiors and receive a reward, the local police rented a house near Ms. Tang’s parents' home to monitor them in the hope of catching her. They use taxpayers’money to shamelessly persecute ordinary good people.

In June 2006 the police obtained her phone number when she made phone calls to her parents. They used cellphone tracing technology to locate and monitor her. They surrounded the work unit where she had a temporary job and arrrested her again. (Please refer to the article entitled "Ms. Tang Jinai, a Falun Gong Practitioner from Guangzhou City, Was Illegally Arrested - Her Two-year-old Toddler was Forced to Separate from Her Parents" published on Clearwisdom on August 18, 2006, at http://www.clearwisdom.net/emh/articles/2006/8/18/77001.html) Her family went to the local police station to demand her release. The police didn’t release her but framed her instead. According to the Party’s own law, when there is an infant in a family, one of the arrested parents should be released to take care of and feed the baby. Though the police in Guangzhou didn’t sentence Ms. Tang Jinai, they still put her in the infamous Chatou brainwashing center for no legal reason.
