(Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Kan Zongquan, is a 70-year-old retiree from the 7111 Factory of Sichuan Aerospace Industry Corporation. She has been constantly persecuted for believing in Truth-Compassion-Forbearance as a determined Falun Gong practitioner. Her husband passed away at the end of 2005 because of endless harassment by CCP officials. Her son, who is not a Falun Gong practitioner, is now mentally incapacitated after being monitored and harassed by the police.
Ms. Kan Zongquan was detained for 15 days between March 23 and April 7, 2000 in Wenjiang County Detention Center. At the same time, the 7111 Factory fined her three thousand yuan.Under such pressure from both the CCP and public opinion, her son could not take the strain and became mentally disordered. He was afraid of going to work and then scared to return home, since the authorities could be waiting for him. On April 6, her husband had no choice but to send the son to a mental hospital for treatment, which cost 1000 yuan. On April 7, local CCP member ordered her husband to pay a 3000 yuan "fine." He had to borrow the money to pay for it as he had run out of savings.
After her release, Ms. Kan Zongquan was tightly monitored and often harassed by the authorities. She received many harassing phone calls. Her home was ransacked several times and many household items were taken away.
Ms. Kan Zongquan's son was a full time employee at the 7111 Factory. The factory fired him because of his mental disorder and his wife ended up divorcing him because he could not support her.
Ms. Kan Zongquan's husband was also a retiree from the 7111 Factory and he was disabled because of his work there. In 2001, after the CCP orchestrated the self-immolation propaganda stunt in Tiananmen Square to frame Falun Gong, the party secretary of the 7111 Factory held a "discussion session" for all the Falun Gong practitioners in the plant. Ms. Kan Zongquan explained, "It's impossible for Falun Gong practitioners to commit suicide owing to the principle that we do not kill, and that includes suicide." Instead of listening to her, the party secretary, Jia Yingfu threatened her husband that she would be sent to a forced labor camp. Her husband replied, "I am disabled and cannot walk. Our son is sick. You figure it out!" The factory then often requested the husband to tightly monitor her. If she went to Beijing, he would be held responsible.
Ms. Kan Zongquan's husband could not stand the continuous pressure and harassments, and he passed away at the end of 2005. This innocent family collapsed under the intense pressure from the CCP in the illegal persecution of Falun Gong.
On December 14, 15, 18, 20, and 22 of 2006, policemen from Domestic Security Agency of Gongping Town Police Station broke in and ransacked her home five times in a row. The security of the 7111 Factory cooperated with the police and stole her son's computers. They also took away two CD burners, Falun Gong books, videotapes, electronic books, mp3 players, a photo of Master Li, and Falun Gong materials. Altogether, the items were worth more than 10 thousand yuan.
The security officers of the 7111 Factory, community police, and policemen from Gongping Town Police Station broke into Ms. Kan Zongquan's home again at 11 am on November 25, 2008. They illegally arrested her and detained her for 15 days. Two security officers from the 7111 Factory stayed in her home to monitor and intimidate her son, which aggravated his mental condition. During her detention period, because of the mental stress, her son destroyed a laptop, a DVD burner, electrical outlets, and his own clothes. They were worth more than 10 thousand yuan. After that, her son could not sleep for fear of the authorities returning.
From the end of 2008, the factory stopped Ms. Kan Zongquan's pension. She lost about 14 thousand yuan. Ms. Kan Zongquan said, "I asked the factory to return the money to me. Not only did they say no, they gave me no reason, and had the nerve to ask me to write a report saying that I had relinquished my pension." Beyond that, the suffering of her son (he is currently unemployed) and the death of her husband are beyond repair.
