Huang Cheng, director of the Stability Maintenance Office, harassed local Falun Gong practitioners in the 2020 “zero-out” campaign. Before July 1, 2021, practitioners were not allowed to leave Lianjiang City. Residential committee personnel went to practitioners’ homes every day to monitor them, restrict their movements, and suppress their freedom of speech. Huang instructed sub-district administration offices, residential committees, and police stations in Lianjiang City to pressure practitioners to sign the three statements.
Ms. Luo Ling was arrested, taken to the brainwashing center, taken to a forced labor camp, and sentenced to prison by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) simply because she practiced Falun Dafa. The police ransacked her home, followed her, and placed her under surveillance.
Since 2020, the CCP officials often went to Ms. Luo’s home to harass her. One day sub-district administration office and residential committee personnel even brought officers from a SWAT team to her home. She was not at home at the time. Later, Huang Cheng, together with the secretary of the residential committee, went to Ms. Luo’s home and brought her cooking oil, as well as a printed copy of the three statements. Chen Jingxiong, a member of the residential committee, kept taking pictures with his cell phone. Ms. Luo told them to take the oil and rice and give them to needy households, but they did not listen. Ms. Luo took the oil and rice to the residential committee the following day.

When Ms. Yao went out grocery shopping, someone would immediately follow her to the market. They followed her everywhere until she returned home.
