Feb. 20, 2007

(Clearwisdom.net) Practitioner Mr. Chen Tianjie, 34, is a resident of Tahe County in the Daxingan Ridge Area of Heilongjiang Province. He began to practice Falun Gong in 1996. He does everything according to the requirement of "Truthfulness-Benevolence-Forbearance" and is well-respected.

Beginning in July 1999, Jiang Zemin's regime began to suppress on Falun Gong. In order to say that Falun Gong is good, he went to Beijing to appeal. At the end of August 1999, he was arrested and detained at the Tahe County Detention Center. Four months later, he was released nine days after he went on a hunger strike. On the seventh day after his release, when he had not recovered yet, he was arrested again and detained at the detention center. After that, he was sentenced to one year of forced labor. He was detained at the Wudalianchi City Forced Labor Camp in Heilongjiang Province.

Mr. Chen was detained past his release date. He was not released from the camp until the end of 2000. At that time, his wife was detained in the Shuanghe Forced Labor Camp in Qiqihar City. Later, Mr. Chen's family was taken by his parents to Taizhou City, Zhejiang Province.

At the end of July 2002, Mr. Chen was arrested when he was preparing truth clarification materials by three people. Agents from the police, the security department, the 610 Office, and the Neighborhood Administration in the Luqiao District ransacked his house for hours. All the Dafa books and truth-clarifying materials and a fax machine were taken away.

When he was detained in the Luqiao District Detention Center, Mr. Chen appealed his case to the Taizhou City Middle People's Court but got no reply. Later, without any public trial or notifying his relatives, Mr. Chen Tianjie was sentenced to 11 years in prison based on the number of confiscated fliers. His parents and his wife only received the sentencing statement, and no legal procedures were followed. At that time, his child was only 100 days old. Mr. Chen was also dismissed by his employer, the Luqiao District Farmer's Credit Union. The sudden change put huge amount of pressure on his family.

Around November 2002, Mr. Chen was detained at Jinhua Prison. Then he was transferred to the Strictly Monitored Team of the Hangzhou City No. 4 Prison in Linping Town, the Yuhang District. To this day he is still being abused. Mr. Chen is still writing his appeal statement.
