Dafa practitioner Gao Xiaoping from Changyi City, Shandong Province was detained numerous times for practicing Dafa and was brutally tortured. She was forced to leave home and her husband, who is not a practitioner, was abducted by the police because she escaped an attempted arrest. He was detained for 15 days.

Because of this, Gao Xiaoping cannot return home, and her child, who is not even ten years old, is left in the care of her 70-year-old grandmother. A happy family was broken up by the perpetrators.

A practitioner writes: My name is Wang Shuhua. I am 39 years old and I work at Guanxian County Cotton and Linen Company in Shandong Province.
