Dec. 5, 2015 |   By a Falun Gong practitioner in Shengli Oil Field, Shandong Province, China

(Minghui.org) Since late October, agents from the 610 Office of SINOPEC Shengli Oil Field have worked with Binhai Police Department officers to harass, arrest, and detain local Falun Gong practitioners who are or used to be oil company employees.

These practitioners recently filed lawsuits against former Chinese dictator Jiang Zemin, who launched the persecution of Falun Gong 16 years ago.

From October 19 to November 24, over 80 practitioners from more than 11 subsidiaries of Shengli Oil Field were arrested and detained. Most of them were released later, although 3 are still being detained and the whereabouts of 3 others remain unknown.

In addition to the arrests, the police harassed and threatened many other practitioners and their family members.

Employees from Different Subsidiaries Targeted

The new wave of arrests targeted employees from different subsidiaries of the oil field. Below are a few examples.

The police arrested 11 practitioners in Gudao Oil Refinery on November 5. Ten of them have been released and one's whereabouts is unknown.

The Geophysical Research Institute of Shengli Oil Field worked with the police to arrest and intimidate current and former practitioner employees. Ten practitioners were arrested in a matter of several weeks.

Mr. Jing Hai used to work at Shengli Old Field's Electric Power Management Corporation. He was arrested many times and tortured in the past for his belief. He was put in prison in 2008 for five years and fired from his job. The police arrested him again on November 5 for filing a lawsuit against Jiang. He was later released after suffering hypertension in detention.

Mr. Liu Haibo, an accountant at Shengli Oil Field Highland (Gaotian) Petroleum Equipment Company, was arrested on the job on November 5. The police ransacked his home and confiscated his computer, printers, and Falun Gong literature. He was detained for 10 days.

Background

In 1999, Jiang Zemin, as head of the Chinese Communist Party, overrode other Politburo standing committee members and launched the violent suppression of Falun Gong.

The persecution has led to the deaths of many Falun Gong practitioners furing the past 16 years. More have been tortured for their belief and even killed for their organs. Jiang Zemin is directly responsible for the inception and continuation of the brutal persecution.

Under his personal direction, the Chinese Communist Party established an extralegal security organ, the “610 Office,” on June 10, 1999. The organization overrides police forces and the judicial system in carrying out Jiang's directive regarding Falun Gong: to ruin their reputations, cut off their financial resources, and destroy them physically.

Chinese law allows for citizens to be plaintiffs in criminal cases, and many practitioners are now exercising that right to file criminal complaints against the former dictator.
