(Clearwisdom.net) On the night of April 23, 2008, the Benxi City police conducted a large-scale arrest of more than forty Falun Dafa practitioners, including elderly practitioners in their seventies, and young mothers. That was part of their "Safe Olympics" plan.
That night, officers from the Mingshan District Police Station stormed into Mr. Xiong Anming's home, beat on the door, and tried to break it open. Mr. Xiong and his wife Zhang Yulan tried to escape arrest by jumping from their third-floor apartment. Ms. Zhang's lower spine was fractured, and she was taken to the hospital. The police ransacked their home, took their cash and belongings, and arrested Mr. Xiong.
Ms. Zhang was released from the hospital before she had fully recovered, due to not being able to pay the medical expenses. The police kept harassing her at home. They threatened her, saying that the Mingshan Police Station, Mingshan District Police Department, and Benxi City Level Law Enforcement would arrest her again to put her on trial. In order to avoid being arrested, Ms. Zhang fled home with her two sons. She died in the extreme pain of her injury on November 15, 2008. Her younger son is only 7 years old. Both of her children have no one taking care of them.
Mr. Xiong Anming is still detained and facing trial. On November 17, 2008, his father took his two grandsons and went to Mingshan District Court to request his release. The court only allowed the detained Mr. Xiong to see his wife's body briefly in the funeral home, under surveillance.
The police have harassed Mr. Xiong's parents several times. Mr. Xiong's mother is bedridden from being overly threatened and worried. His parents do not have the money to hold a funeral for their daughter-in-law.
