Mr. He Jian's Life is in Danger Because of Persecution by the Wuhan City Police Department

July 20, 2003

(Clearwisdom.net)

Around June 22, 2003, the police from Division No. 1 of the Wuhan Police Department once again kidnapped Falun Dafa practitioner He Jian, who has a master's degree from Wuhan University. They charged him with "sabotage: using the TV and radio." He Jian totally denied the police allegations. Currently his health is very bad, and he was sent by the police to Wuhan Hospital for treatment of tuberculosis. The same police are monitoring him there. He was diagnosed with severe pulmonary tuberculosis with perforation and was listed in critical condition. They told He's parents they had to pay for all the hospital charges. Under the immense stress from the financial and mental pressure, his parents' health has been deteriorating. The following is what He Jian wrote before he was in critical condition:

My Experience

My name is He Jian. I was born in 1976 and currently live in Wuhan. I entered Wuhan University in 1993 and obtained a bachelor's degree in 1997. I then continued to study for a master's degree in marketing. Because of my poor health, I started to practice Falun Dafa in 1997. Within a very short of time, my body completely recovered, and I had been practicing since. On July 21, 1999, Jiang Zemin suddenly announced the ban of Falun Dafa through CCTV. Countless practitioners who have benefited from practicing Falun Dafa as I have could not understand and accept this.

At the end of July 1999, I went to Beijing to appeal: according the Chinese Constitution, citizens have the right to appeal. However, the authorities at Wuhan University strongly opposed my legal action and sent staff to Beijing. Along with my parents, they attempted to convince me to give up the appeal. Several months later, my family members, under formidable pressure from the university, forcibly brought me back to Wuhan. Back home, attempting to force me to give up my belief in Falun Dafa, the authorities in the university kept harrassing me and my family using various methods.

At 6:30 p.m. on October 30, 1999, using the excuse of letting me watch the news on TV, the university police from the security division tricked me into going to their office, and they illegally detained me. They took turns talking to me and would not let me have any rest. They asked me to give up a citizen's basic rights, including practicing Falun Gong and appealing. They threatened to arrest me if I refused to write a guarantee.

In January 2000, I was still a graduate student and went to the Appeals Office of the State Council in Beijing to appeal against the unfair treatment of Falun Dafa. The personnel in the Appeals Office sent me to Wuhan Province's Office in Beijing, from where I was sent back to Wuhan. The police from the university's security office illegally detained me at the university's hotel for as long as a week and forced me to pay for all the expenses. After they failed to obtain a guarantee from me, they pressured my parents and threatened to dismiss me from school or arrest me, trying to force me to give up my belief. Then, they sent me to the Wuhan First Administrative Detention Center for 15 days. The police continued to monitor me after I was released, and the personnel from the university forced me to accept the so-called "assistance and education" [brainwashing] from many professors. They continued these useless measures of brainwashing until I completed a master's degree in July 2000. Because I persisted in my belief, the university refused to issue me a diploma and the certificate until I was leaving to work in Shenzhen, Guangdong Province at the end of August. During this period, they never stopped harassing me and my family.

In August 2000, I went to work at Kangjia Electronic Limited Cooperation in Shenzhen. At this time, the overall persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners in China had become severe. We were not allowed to talk or practice Falun Gong publically, and more and more practitioners were persecuted by means of detention, forced-labor, imprisonment, violence and economic penalty. In October 2000, I went to Tiananmen Square in Beijing again and unfurled a banner that read "Falun Dafa is Good." Numerous police officers, many armed, surounded me. They kicked and punched me and then sent me to the Shijingshen Detention Center.

I protested the unreasonable persecution with a hunger strike. Finally, the police brought me back to Wuhan City. I had not been eating or drinking for seven days by the time they sent me to the Second Detention Center in the Wuhan Police Department. During this time, the police never responded to my hunger strike and even cuffed me to a train parapet for the entire night on the sixth day of my strike. The detention center did not dare to keep me because my life was in danger; they could not detect any blood pressure. I was sent back to the police station. Afraid of the liability, the police took a bond and released me home on the eighth day of my hunger strike.

On May 15, 2001, the Wuhan Police Department illegally arrested and charged me for propagating Falun Gong and sentenced me to the Hewan Forced-Labor Camp for 18 months. In the camp, Falun Gong practitioners have no rights. We were not allowed to practice Falun Gong, read Falun Gong materials, move around or talk with other practitioners or inmates. The guards did not let me rest and forced me to do heavy labor. The camp's food was very bad and they restricted the practitioners from buying food. When I refused to work, they forced me to stand for a long time. The guards ordered other inmates to swear and beat us, and the police also colluded with some former practitioners who went down an evil path; togther, they tried to brainwash us. In order to protest the physical and mental tortures, I went on a hunger strike. They ordered an unqualified person to forcibly put a tube in me and then started to forcibly feed me.
