More Information About the Persecution of Practitioner Ms. Li Kemei

March 20, 2007

(Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Li Kemei, a practitioner from Fengtai Village, Yaodianzi Town, Yishui County, Shandong Province, was reported to the police by someone named Huang Chuantao, when Ms. Li was “clarifying the truth” about the persecution of Falun Gong on October 15, 2006. Several police officers dragged Ms. Li Kemei up to the police station and beat her. Huang Chuantao was awarded with a bonus of 2,000 yuan in secret.

At the police station, the director beat Ms. Li Kemei, while Ms. Li clarified the truth to them with compassion. Ms. Li also told them her personal experience of how she benefited from studying the Fa and doing the exercises. Instead of listening to her, the police further intensified the beatings. As a result, she was bleeding in both her mouth and nose. When it was time for a meal, Ms. Li Kemei (who had not had breakfast, and who had been hungry for most of the time) saw that the person who watched her was eating, and said, “I want to eat.” The person who watched her said, “I won’t give you anything to eat.” Only after they felt full after eating did they give Ms. Li Kemei a thin pancake made of millet flour. Since Ms. Li was so hungry and had been beaten severely, she lost consciousness before even taking a bite. At this moment, the “610 Office” had someone come over to drive Ms. Li away. We do not know who threw the pancake onto the floor, but Ms. Li Kemei had not yet had a chance to eat a single bite. Two men came to drag her into the vehicle. When the secretary general of the village, Zhang Jingxiang, saw this, he went back to the village and started a rumor to the villagers. “Instead of eating the pancake given to her, she took it and threw it onto the ground.”

Ms. Li Kemei was detained at the Yishui County Detention Center by the Yishui County 610 Office. The next day, a police officer named Yao forced Ms. Li to wear a placard that identified her as a criminal around her neck. Ms. Li did not cooperate with him at all and said, “There is nothing wrong with Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance, and reciting Falun Dafa is good.” Without saying anything, the police officer came forward to give Ms. Li Kemei several slaps, and kicked her in the chest several times. At the end, two police officers held Ms. Li up and forced her to have a photo taken before they forced her to give her fingerprints. When Ms. Li refused, the police officers gave her several slaps. Several police officers again forced her to give her fingerprints.

After being held for one month at the detention center, the police officers of the detention center deceived her by saying that she was allowed to go home. They instead took her to a brainwashing session located inside a technical school at the Lanshan District Water Conservancy Bureau at Linyi City. At the brainwashing session there were two other practitioners who were detained there. The staff members of the brainwashing session forced the practitioners to watch videos every day that defamed Teacher. One day, Ms. Li stepped out from the room where the video was shown and tried to go to the washroom. Those who kept surveillance over her did not allow her to leave. Several people from the brainwashing session dragged Ms. Li back to the room and kicked her. Several days later when they saw Ms. Li sitting on a stool, refusing to watch the video that defamed Dafa, they came over to kick the stool over. Ms. Li Kemei fell down to the floor hard. She was dragged away and squeezed between two tables, and someone then punched her in the back.

At the brainwashing session, there was one practitioner, with the last name of He, who did not want to watch the video that defamed Dafa. The staff moved the video player to her room, and over a dozen staff members took turns depriving her of sleep around the clock. Whenever she tried to take a nap, the staff members would beat her and bang on the table to make noise. Several thugs shook the chair to prevent her from falling asleep. They tortured her both physically and mentally until she left the brainwashing session.

Afterwards, they hired several older ladies who called themselves “transfers.” The police ordered them to curse Dafa and Master. They would do so and when the police asked them to write the “guarantee statement” and give their fingerprints, they followed the orders. Over ten days later, they were released to go home.

Since Ms. Li Kemei had righteous thoughts and behavior, she resisted the persecution and did not cooperate with the evil’s orders. In the end, she left the den of evil with righteous thoughts and returned to her home.
