Persecution of Practitioners from Zhalantun City, Inner Mongolia

Aug. 31, 2006 |   By a Falun Dafa practitioner from Mainland China

(Clearwisdom.net) Mr. Zhou Jingguo is a Falun Dafa practitioner from Zhalantun City, Inner Mongolia. He went to Beijing to validate Dafa and was deported by police officer Zhang Yong from Zhalantun City. He was "illegally detained" for fifteen days. In 2001, officer Zhang Yong sent a crew to Dalian to arrest this practitioner. In 2004, Mr. Zhou Jingguo went home to visit his family, and a local policeman found him. More than ten police cars blocked the door of his home. Suddenly it began to snow, although it was a sunny day. Strengthened by Master, Mr. Zhou escaped with righteous thoughts.

Ms. Wang Chunyan, another practitioner from Zhalantun City, went to Beijing to validate Dafa in 2001. She was deported and detained by policemen from Zhalantun. Afterwards, she was sent to a forced labor camp in Tumuji for one year. The guards dragged her around an athletic field and she was beaten severely.

Practitioner Mr. Yu Zhenjie is from Zhalantun City. In 2001, he was detained at Nantou Prison in Zhalantun City. After his release, he went to Beijing to validate Dafa and cried out "Falun Dafa is good!" on Tiananmen Square. He was beaten by policemen on the square, deported by Zhalantun police and sent to Zhalantun Detention Center. Since then, there has been no news about him.

Ms. Meng Huiling, a practitioner from Zhalantun City, was illegally arrested and sent to a brainwashing center in 2001. Other practitioners arrested at the same time were Chen Deli, Xii Shufang, Lu Mingzhi, Wei Yuhai, and Wei Guofu. After she returned home, the local police continually harassed and threatened her. On March 27, 2006, her home was ransacked by fourteen policemen led by Ding Shaowei. Items used to clarify the truth were confiscated, and she was sent to Arong Flag Detention Center. She went on a hunger strike for over ten days to protest. Afterward she was transferred to Nantou Prison in Zhalantun. She remains in detention.

Practitioner Mr. Zhao Jianchun of Zhalantun City was arrested by policeman Piao when Mr. Zhao went to Nianzi Mountain in 2001 to distribute truth clarification materials. He was detained in Zhalantun for fifteen days. After that, policemen in Zhalantun repeatedly went to his home to harass and threaten him. After several months, he went to Beijing to validate Dafa, but was stripped naked and shocked by Beijing policemen with electric batons after they threw water on the ground. He was taken back to his hometown by Zhalantun officers and sent to a forced labor camp in Tumuji for two years. Only after he was released did he discover that his wife had been sentenced illegally for distributing truth clarification materials. His daughter, Xiaohong, was forced to find work to support herself.

In 2002 Ms. Chen Qiulian and Ms. Zhou Liru, both practitioners from Zhalantun City, were distributing Falun Dafa materials together. They were arrested and taken to Haila’er Detention Center. Ms. Zhou Liru was persecuted to death. Ms. Chen Qiulian was sent to the Number One Women’s Forced Labor Camp in Huhehaote City. She is still in detention.

Practitioner Mr. Wang Zhichen is from Chengjisihan, Inner Mongolia. In 2001, he went to Nianzi Mountain to distribute materials with more than ten other practitioners. They were all detained. The police in Zhalantun believed that he was the leader. After fifteen days, the other practitioners were released, but not Mr. Wang. During that time, he recited Master’s scriptures, spread Dafa, and clarified the truth. The police beat him severely, and he lost control of his bodily functions. To keep him from clarifying the truth, they stuffed his mouth with dirty things. They also forbade his family from seeing him and spread rumors that he was insane. He was then sent to a forced labor camp in Tumuji.

In 2001 Ms. Xi Shufang, a practitioner from Zhalantun City, went to Nianzi Mountain to validate Dafa. She was taken away and detained for fifteen days. In 2001, she was sent to the brainwashing center. Afterwards, local policemen went to her home to harass and threaten her. She has had to leave home and live in a rural area to avoid further persecution.

Practitioner Ms. Lu Mingzhi is from Zhalantun City. In 2000, she went to Beijing to validate Dafa and was brought back by police officers from Zhalantun. She was then detained at Nantou Prison in Zhalantun City for fifteen days. Afterwards, policemen went to her home to harass and threaten her. Her aged father-in-law and mother-in-law were terribly frightened. In 2001, Ms. Lu was sent to a brainwashing center. She was arrested on March 27, 2006, but has been released.
