Seven People Illegally Arrested by Chinese Communist Party Agents in Changling County, Jilin Province

June 9, 2008

(Clearwisdom.net) The 610 Office of Changling County, Jilin Province, along with local police and so-called security directors--six or seven people in total--broke into local Falun Gong practitioners' homes around 6:00 p.m. on May 22, 2008. Right after they entered the door, they said, "The Olympics Games are coming up, and we are afraid that you guys may go to Beijing to appeal [for justice for Falun Gong], so we are here to check." They started to search everywhere while they were talking. They arrested people once they found anything related to Falun Gong. These Chinese Communist Party (CCP) gangs searched the homes of practitioners whose names were on their blacklist. Seven people were arrested, including Zhang Yanhua, Wu Ling, Chen Yuping, and Zhao Lianfeng's wife.

The police did not go through any legal procedures. They suppressed ordinary, peaceful citizens at will, and even arrested practitioners' family members who don't practice Falun Gong. The police said that after they took a written record they would release some of the people they had arrested. However, four or five officers came the second day, saying that those arrested had to be held for 15 days and family members should send clothes and bedding. The police also demanded 360 yuan to pay for their food for two weeks. The seven people who were arrested are now in Changling County Detention Center. The laptop of Zhang Yanhua's son-in-law, who doesn't practice Falun Gong, was also taken away illegally.

When good citizens who follow Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance are treated this way, where is the law? How can these police be called the "people's police?" They are hoodlums! Everyone with a kind and righteous heart, please help stop the CCP from disturbing and persecuting innocent citizens.
