(Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Zhao Junfeng is a teacher in Nanbei Village, Gaochuan Township, Cang County, Hebei Province. She started to practice Falun Gong in 1997. Before cultivation, she suffered from a life of hardship, and she had been sick with many ailments for a long time. She almost lost the will to continue living. After starting cultivation she understood the true meaning of life, her mental state improved, her realm rose, and all her diseases disappeared. She measured herself according to the standard of Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance, and is regarded as a good person by everyone around her.
However, such a good person has been persecuted for eight years. Under the mad persecution of the Jiang Zemin regime, the Gaochuan Township government followed along in the persecution. On July 22, 1999, the secretary of the Chinese Communist Party of Gaochuan Township Li Zehui and Police Chief Yuan brought several people to Ms. Zhao's home and forbade her to continue to practice Falun Gong. The next morning, July 23, Chief Yuan confiscated her copy of Zhuan Falun and videos of Master Li's lectures. He tried to force Ms. Zhao Junfeng to write guarantee letters not to practice Falun Gong, as well as repentance letters. Since then, she has had no peace as the authorities harass her almost every day. The Township Secretary and policemen monitor Ms. Zhao 24 hours a day; they go to her workplace and her home, so that she cannot work and live normally. They constantly threaten and intimidate, taking pictures, and they have confiscated her ID.
In the middle of October 2000, Li Zehui and two other persons went to Zhao Junfeng's school and forced her to give up cultivation. Under tremendous pressure and against her own will she said that she would give it up, but then she was taken to the police station and pressured to renounce her beliefs again. She was very troubled about this, since Dafa had saved her from death. So she firmly told them: "I still want to practice." As a result, she was sent to the Cang County Detention Center for 15 days.
At the beginning of 2002, Li Zehui attempted to arrest Ms. Zhao and send her to a brainwashing center, but failed because she was staying at her son's home at the time. In retaliation, they terminated both her and her son's salary for three months.
At the end of 2003, Ms. Zhao was turned in to the police. The school principal Wen Juhai canceled her authority to teach for two years, depriving her of her 300-yuan salary each month.
Zhao Junfeng's daughter has also been harassed frequently. Personnel from the 610 Office and police officers went to her workplace to threaten and intimidate her, making her nervous and scared.
On May 2, 2007, between 6:00 and 7:00 a.m., the secretary of the Gaochuan Politics and Law Committee, Lu Hongwei, Police Chief Li Ningsheng and police officer Liu broken into Ms. Zhao's house, stole Dafa books and magazines, and grabbed Master's pictures, videos, and even the personal property of her relatives. The house was totally searched; even the shoes under the bed were turned inside out.
The Chinese Constitution, 36th Section, 2nd Charter reads, "Any institution, organization, or persons cannot force citizens to believe in or not believe in a religion." Chinese citizens have the right of congregation, belonging, publishing, appealing and speaking. It is not illegal to cultivate Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance, so therefore any action of persecuting Dafa practitioners is itself illegal.
