(Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Jin Yijun, a legal officer and Falun Gong practitioner from Lanzhou City, Jiangsu Province, was followed and arrested by police officers from the Domestic Security Department when she went to the prison where Mr. Shao Yanbo was held. She was planning to take him home at the end of his eight-year illegal sentence. Ms. Jin is now in the Lanzhou City No. 1 Detention Center.
Ms. Jin works in a law office in Lanzhou City. On December 7, 2011, Mr. Shao's eight-year term was up, and Ms. Jin went to Lanzhou Prison to take him home. That day, Huining County Police Bureau personnel wanted to transfer Mr. Shao to a brainwashing center, so they cooperated with Lanzhou Prison officials to prevent him from going home. As a result, Mr. Shao's family and friends ended up waiting for him outside from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Later, the Huining County Police Bureau teamed up with the provincial and municipal politics and law committees, the 610 Office, the juridical department, and the Lanzhou City Domestic Security Division—more than 20 people in total. They threatened and pressured his family and friends. They also took pictures, made video-recordings, and followed them.
Mr. Shao and his family strongly opposed this plot. At 9:00 p.m., he was finally taken home. People from Lanzhou City Domestic Security Division and Huining County Police Bureau followed in police vehicles and taxis both his family members and friends who had come to the prison to get him. Ms. Jin was arrested on her way home. Witnesses said that there were a woman dressed in red and three men following the taxi that Ms. Jin was taking.
The next day, six to seven plainclothes officers from the Domestic Security Brigade of Lanzhou City Police Bureau broke into Ms. Jin's home and searched it. When her nine-year old son and her husband came home, there were people searching their home. Her son later said, "How did they get into our home without using a key? I thing they were the ones who took my mother away." The officers also confiscated Ms. Jin's laptop computer and other personal belongings, and threatened her family members to frighten them. Among those plainclothes officers, one woman claimed that she was a teacher. Her last name was Zhang, and her cell is +0086-13399311618.
After Ms. Jin was arrested, her son was very severely affected emotionally. Not until three days later did officers call her husband to come to Room No. 506 of Lanzhou Police Bureau to pick up her work pass, bank card, a pair of shoes full of dust, and other personal belongings. Police officers who were there threatened her husband by saying that they would sentence her.
On December 14, a Wednesday and a so-called "visitors' day," detention center officials did not allow her family members to visit her or to pass on any personal items, so that they would have to buy everything for her daily use from the center at high prices.
When Ms. Jin's parents and relatives found out that Ms. Jin had been arrested as a result of helping bring Mr. Shao home, they were outraged to think of the deeds committed by these Chinese Communist Party (CCP) officers. On the morning of December 28, 2011, they came all the way from another city to the Lanzhou Police Bureau to demand her release, but guards outside stopped them. When they called the person in charge, as soon as the other party picked up the call, he hung up. Later they called the woman who claimed to be a teacher, with the last name of Zhang. She came downstairs and began scolding Ms. Jin's parents and relatives as soon as she saw them, saying, "Your Ms. Jin is hopeless. I have been trying to 'transform' her for three days and nights, but she refused to be 'transformed' and is extremely stubborn." She also added, "Don't talk to me about anything related to her any longer!"
At 4:00 p.m., Ms. Jin's husband went to the police bureau but was still denied entry. Yet even though he had no permission to enter, he made his way through, entered the building, and found room No. 506. As soon as people who were there saw him, they began yelling at him, saying, "How did you get in?" He was then kicked out.
Ms. Jin's family members then went to Lanzhou City Political and Juridical Committee to look for the person in charge, Zhang Mingquan. They were denied entry there as well. When they were calling to explain the situation at the place where Ms. Jin was arrested, those they were talking with denied any knowledge of what was being said and told them that they didn't have the person they were looking for.
Except for the fact that Ms. Jin is detained at Lanzhou City No. 1 Detention Center, her family doesn't know anything else about her. Her son is currently at home alone, and her elderly parents are very worried about her.
Many local practitioners have been detained and persecuted in the Lanzhou City No. 1 Detention Center. Between 2001 and 2003, three practitioners were tortured to death there, including Ms. Liu Xianglan, Ms. Zhang Fengyun, and Mr. Wan Guifu. Others, including Mr. Bai Sanyuan, were tortured to disability there.
