(Minghui.org) The third trial of a woman from Holingol, Inner Mongolia for her practice of Falun Gong was aborted before it got started.
Ms. Jia Haiying had a seizure about 30 minutes before the trial, but the police and the court left her unattended until her daughter urged them to send her to the ER.
Though she was still in serious condition, the police forcibly took her back to the detention center less than eight hours after she was admitted to the hospital.
Ms. Jia's trial was scheduled for 8:30 a.m. on January 28, but it still hadn't started by 9 o'clock. When her family inquired about the unexpected delay, the court staff offered no answer.
A clerk suddenly came out looking for Ms. Jia's husband, but he refused to reveal what happened. When the family followed him inside, they were shocked by what they saw:
Ms. Jia was lying on a bench with blood oozing out of her mouth. Her whole body was twitching, and she had irregular breathing. The judges, the police and the court bailiffs, however, were simply watching her suffering from the seizure.
Ms. Jia's daughter scolded them, “It is 9 o'clock! My mom must have been having a seizure for about half an hour. Every minute counts! Send her to the ER NOW!”
A few nurses came with a stretcher, but no officer walked up to pick up Ms. Jia. Her daughter shouted at them, “You are now afraid of taking responsibility?! My mom was perfectly healthy before her arrest. Now look at her! You will pay for what you did to her!”
A clerk yelled for the police to get Ms. Jia up, but still no one moved a step.
Ms. Jia's daughter ran out to get more family members inside and together they carried her mom into the ambulance. It was 9:03 a.m. at that time.
Ms. Jia was still twitching at the ER, and the nurses had trouble finding her vein. More than 10 officers jammed the already crowded room and refused to get out despite the doctors and nurses' repeated warnings.
The presiding doctor finally managed to talk most of the officers out, but still a court bailiff stayed behind to videotape everything.
Ms. Jia was wheeled out of the ER room about 40 minutes later and transferred to an ICU room for observation. She remained unconscious during the whole process. Five officers took turns monitoring her ward, while one person kept videotaping her.
At around 4:50 p.m., another group of eight officers showed up in the ward with a flatbed wagon. They claimed the hospital president considered Ms. Jia normal now, so they were ready to take her back to the detention center.
Her daughter tried in vain to stop her mom from being taken away. She could only see the police van speeding away with screaming sirens.
