(Clearwisdom.net) At around 3:00 p.m. on February 25, 2009, Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Liang Yuzhen from Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province went to the countryside to distribute truth-clarification materials. Police arrested her and took her back to her home at 9:00 p.m. that night. They ransacked the house for evidence to persecute her. Ms. Liang's 98-year-old grandmother held her tight and pleaded with the police that she needed her granddaughter to take care of her. The police pried her hands open and forcibly took Ms. Liang away and sent her to Heshan Detention Center

After Ms. Liang's arrest, the grandmother was left with no one to care for her. She looked everywhere to find lawyers willing to help her rescue her granddaughter. Attorney Tang Jitian from Anhui Law Firm and Attorney Li Chunfu from Gaobolonghua Law Firm, both in Beijing, agreed to work with her. On April 2, the two lawyers went to Heshan Detention Center asking to see Liang Yuzhen. Jiangmen City 610 Office and Domestic Security personnel were very frightened to see the lawyers and ordered the detention center to make every effort to prevent them from meeting with Liang Yuzhen.
Upon learning that the two lawyers were denied visitation rights, the elderly grandmother was extremely sad and outraged. With the help of others, she walked to Heshan Detention Center. The guards there all tried to avoid talking to her. They said they were only working there and felt helpless themselves.
The grandmother had always been well taken care of by Liang Yuzhen
Liang Yuzhen, 41, began her practice of Falun Gong in April 1999. Ever since the persecution began, she and her sister Liang Jinyou have been arrested and detained numerous times. This time she was taken away right in front of her grandmother. On March 11, 2009, the police issued an arrest warrant.
Ms. Liang's parents are residents of Hong Kong. Their whole family is grieved over her and her sister's plight. Attorneys Tang Jitian and Li Chunfu have submitted complaints to relevant departments. However, as of now, they are still not allowed to see Liang Yuzhen.
