(Minghui.org) Three female practitioners from other cities attended a hearing in Guangfeng Court for six practitioners on June 6, 2014. They were arrested and held in the Guangfeng Detention Center for 13 days.
The three women left the courthouse around noon when six officers stopped and questioned them. The practitioners said they were going out for lunch, and several officers followed them.
When a police vehicle drove up, the officers grabbed them and pushed them inside. The three practitioners shouted, “Falun Dafa is good! The police are arresting good people!”
They were taken to the Domestic Security Division of the Guangfeng Police Department. The officers asked where they came from. In reply, they told them the facts about Falun Gong. They gave the officers DVDs of the Nine Commentaries on the Chinese Communist Party and other Falun Gong materials. Another officer barged into the office and grabbed one of their backpacks.
The officers took the three practitioners to a hospital for a physical that night. The women resisted being examined, so the officers dragged them. A young practitioner's skirt was ripped and fell off. Her bottom and legs were injured and turned black and blue.
The police fabricated their exam results, because the practitioners would not submit to the physical. They were then taken to the Guangfeng Detention Center.
The three refused to give their names in the detention center and went on a hunger strike to protest their treatment. They found a paper and pen and wrote letters explaining the facts about Falun Gong to the Guangfeng 610 Office, the Political and Legal Affairs Committee, and the domestic security division.
The warden agreed to send their cases to higher authorities if they stopped their hunger strike. He also promised that they would be released after 13 days.
On June 19, the practitioners were told they wouldn't be released if they didn't disclose their names. The practitioners went on a hunger strike again. The detention center finally released them at 5 that afternoon.
