(Clearwisdom.net) In 2008 and 2009, the Chinese Communist Party in Huaiyang County, Henan Province arrested and tortured Dafa practitioners, and ransacked their homes. The Party also illegally sentenced practitioners to prison. The leading perpetrators are Huaiyang County Party Secretary Ren Lianjun, Public Security Bureau Chief Duan Yelin, and a police officer from the Domestic Security Division Cheng Weifeng. Following are some of the cases:
Ms. Liu Cuihua is a practitioner from Anlingxiang Xuemeng Village. She was arrested in August 2008 by officers Cheng Weifeng and Li Changfeng and taken to the second floor of the Domestic Security Division. She was tortured, and then injured her leg when she jumped from the second floor. She was under surveillance in the hospital for over twenty days. To avoid paying her medical bills, officials sent her to a detention center without informing her family. The detention center did not want to accept her, because she was not able to take care of herself. However, Cheng Weifeng told the Public Security Bureau Chief Duan Yelin to order them to take her. In the detention center she depended entirely on others' help. The officials notified her family this time because they wanted her family to pay her medical bills. She was illegally sentenced to four years in prison and her family's appeal was turned down. Due to a lack of care, her leg developed inflammation of the bone marrow. Her family complained to the Provincial Inspectorate. To avoid being blamed, Cheng Weifeng said he would help with getting medical treatment for Ms. Liu from outside the prison. In reality, on April 24, 2009, he secretly moved her to Xinxiang Prison.
Ms. Li Yuzhi, a practitioner in Xinzhan, went to the Domestic Security Division to see her father, who was in detention. She met Cheng Weifeng, who asked whether she also practiced Falun Gong. She said that she did. Then, three police officers, Cheng Weifeng, Wang Jian, and Wang Yong, beat her and used a cloth to cover her face. When she asked why she had been beaten, they said, "We are paid two thousand yuan by the government to beat you. If you had died, it would have been treated as suicide." Then they put her into a car, covered her mouth to prevent her from speaking, and went to ransack her home. After returning to the second floor of the Domestic Security Division, she was beaten again. They pushed needles into her toenails and she fainted. She did not wake up until 6 p.m., when she found herself lying on the floor.
Lei Zhongchang was another Dafa practitioner beaten by the officers at the Domestic Security Division. He was beaten with an electric baton. Ms. Li Yuzhi saw that his entire body was covered in blood.
Mr. Lu Honhjun, a practitioner in Lutai, was sentenced to three years in prison. His appeal was turned down and he was taken away on May 22, 2009.
Two elderly practitioners, Qin Fengrong and Chen Banglian, were sentenced to three years in prison. They were sent to the Xinxiang Prison in the winter of 2008.
Ms. Su Zhenhua is a practitioner in Beiquan. On July 29, 2008, police officers Cheng Weifeng, Li Changfeng, Liu Guanhua, Wang Jian, Wang Yong, and Yuan Quan forced their way into her home. They took away cash and everything of value, then arrested her and her husband Wang Hepin. She was tortured for two days on the Tiger Bench and not allowed to sleep. Whenever she fell asleep, Cheng Weifeng would pull her hair. After twenty days, she saw her husband during an interrogation. His eyes were sunken and there were bloodstains on his shirt. She was sentenced to one and a half years in prison and there is no news about her husband.
Ms. Xu Fengmei, a practitioner in Xuwanxiang, was taken away on August 1, 2008, to the Domestic Security Division by Cheng Weifeng. She was tortured on the "Tiger Bench" and pierced more than twenty times with a needle in her back. Cheng Weifeng also slapped her face more than ten times. Then, Wang Jian beat her feet with an iron rod, and police officers Li Changfeng and Zhu Haoling ransacked her home. They took her satellite receivers, DVDs, cell phones, a study-aid machine, a reader, a television, two thousand yuan, a saving deposit book with 7,000 yuan, a postal card, and a three-wheel motorcycle. There was no receipt to indicate what they had taken. Ms. Xu was sentenced to one and a half years in prison.
Ms. Chen Ying, a practitioner in Xinzhanxiang, was arrested on May 20, 2008, by police officers from the Domestic Security Division. They forced their way into her home and ransacked it, taking everything of value without giving a receipt. She was tortured for three days on the Tiger Bench. Needles were pushed into her feet, and she was slapped in the face by Li Changfeng. Other officers that participated in this included Wang Jian, Wang Yong, and Liu Guanhua. Ms. Chen was sentenced to four and a half years in prison. She turned in her appeal five months ago without any results, and she remains in the detention center.
