Police Arrest Sixty-Nine-Year-Old Practitioner Mr. Feng Shuwen

May 11, 2008

(Clearwisdom.net) Mr. Feng Shuwen, 69 years old, lives in Beidao Village, Xinzhan Township, Jiaohe City of Jilin Province. On March 17, 2008, Li Chunshan, the head of village security, brought plainclothes policemen from the Xinzhan Police Station to Mr. Feng's home. The policemen searched his home, confiscated Falun Dafa books and truth-clarification materials and arrested Mr. Feng. Mr. Feng's 94-year-old mother and 68-year-old wife, who depend on him to take care of them, were left at home.

Mr. Feng started practicing Falun Gong in 1998. His duodenal ulcer, which he had suffered from for over thirty years, disappeared. His gallstones and coronary heart disease were also cured. His hair gradually turned from gray to black again. Before practicing Falun Gong, he couldn't read very well. Now, he can read all the Falun Dafa books.

The head of the police station asked Mr. Feng's family for 1,000 yuan under the pretense of "doing Mr. Feng a favor, considering that he has elderly wife and mother," and he told the family that they will keep Mr. Feng for only 10 days in custody. But after Mr. Feng was transferred to the Jiaohe City authorities, it became to a 15-day detention. Now, 15 days has long passed, and Mr. Feng is still detained. On the fourteenth day, the police station sent a notice to the family saying that they had sent Mr. Feng to a detention center and asked the family to send a quilt and money for food and lodging. The notice, signed by Wang Dukun and Guo Fengquan, states that Mr. Feng has been charged with some vague crime named "Violating Law Implementation." Upon hearing this, Mr. Feng's mother and wife became extremely worried and unsettled, and desperately await Mr. Feng's safe return.
