(Minghui.org) A 68-year-old Qingyuan County, Liaoning Province resident recently filed a complaint against two police supervisors for leading a violent arrest of him that landed him in the hospital.
A group of plainclothes officers deceived Mr. Wang Nanfang into opening the door at 6 a.m. on July 12, 2024. They knocked him down and held him against the floor, before stepping on his face and beating him. His neighbor heard the commotion and came over to check on the situation. He was shocked to see Mr. Wang lying on the ground, unable to move. He condemned the police for beating him and worked with Mr. Wang’s family to call an ambulance.
The officers, led by Wang Tong (no relation), the deputy director of the Qingyuan County Domestic Security Division, and Zhang Minghui, the deputy chief of the Henan Police Station, raided Mr. Wang’s home, after he was taken to the hospital, without presenting proper documents to his family.
Mr. Wang was later taken to the Qingyuan County Detention Center. Zhang brought some items to the detention center and asked him to identify what belonged to him. As Mr. Wang was pointing at the items, Zhang took a photo of him and falsely claimed that he admitted to being the owner of all those items. Zhang then put down his allegation in writing and forged officer Wang’s signature on the document as a witness, even though the latter was not present.
Both Zhang and Wang also instructed the detention center to block Mr. Wang’s lawyer from visiting him. After being denied visitation in early August 2024, the lawyer contacted the police to seek justice, and was granted a visit on August 30.
Mr. Wang recently filed a complaint against Zhang and Wang with the Fushun City Public Security Bureau Supervision Office, Qingyuan County Procuratorate, and the Fushun City Commission for Discipline Inspection and Supervision.
Meanwhile, he is also facing indictment after the police submitted his case to the Wanghua District Procuratorate.
Brutally Tortured During Two Previous Forced Labor Camp Terms
Mr. Wang, 67, suffered from epilepsy, severe neurosis, and gastric tumors in his younger years. No medical treatment worked, but all his symptoms disappeared just a few months after he took up Falun Gong in March 1997. He also learned to be a better person and a more conscientious worker.
Mr. Wang held firm to his faith after the persecution began and was repeatedly targeted. He was arrested on June 28, 2008, and given two years of forced labor on July 19 that year. He served time at several different facilities. Wherever he was held, he was brutally tortured. Please see the last two related reports for details of his torture.
After another arrest on November 25, 2011, Mr. Wang was given one year of forced labor days later on December 9. He was allowed to serve time outside of the labor camp after he failed the required physical examination.
