Police Arrest, Steal-from and Torture Dafa Practitioners to Force So-called "Confessions" in Yakeshi City, Inner Mongolia

Aug. 14, 2009

(Clearwisdom.net) Over the past few days, the police in Yakeshi City, Inner Mongolia have arrested Dafa practitioners, including Ms. Wang Guiling, Ms. Kong Xianyan, Ms. Liu Aihua and others. During the arrests, they stole the practitioners' belongings and tortured them to force so-called "confessions." Ms. Kong Xianyan was subjected to such mistreatment.

1. Ms. Wang Guiling, a practitioner from Yakeshi City, Inner Mongolia, was arrested at home on July 17, 2009, by police from the Shengli Police Station. She is currently detained at the Yakeshi City Detention Center. The police confiscated over 10,000 yuan in cash and some other items. They are currently using Ms. Wang's phone book to search for and harass other Dafa practitioners.

2. Practitioner Ms. Kong Xianyan was arrested by someone surnamed Ren and other officers from the No. 2 Police Station on June 25, 2009. She was taken to the No. 2 Police Station and then transferred to the vice squad at around 6:00 p.m. the same night. Her hands and legs were bound to the tiger bench with handcuffs until 6:00 a.m. the next day. She given no food or liquid for 24 hours. She was deprived of sleep, physically tortured, and not allowed to use the bathroom, forcing her to urinate in her pants. On the evening of June 25, when she had heart pain, she yelled "someone help me," but no one acknowledged her. She is still experiencing numbness in her left thumb from the handcuffs more than a month later. After 6:00 p.m. on June 26, Ms. Kong was transferred to the Forestry Detention Center. At about 8:00 a.m. on June 27, she was taken to a local detention center. At 6:00 p.m. on June 27, her hands were handcuffed to a steel stool in the interrogation room for over 47 hours. She was deprived of sleep, and given no fluids or food. The guards slandered, insulted and kicked her.

Since July 1, 2009, the guards have interrogated her every day. They handcuffed both of her hands to a steel stool, sometimes for seven or eight consecutive hours. Those interrogating her are Wang Guohua, deputy captain of the vice squad surnamed Wang, and someone surnamed Zhang from the No. 4 Police Station.

This arrest was planned well in advance. The police and the CCP workers on the streets have been monitoring Ms. Kong Xianyan from the store across from her rental home. Qi Guozhong, deputy chief of the police department, personally participated in the persecution. Since Ms. Kong's arrest, he has interrogated and tortured her continuously and deprived her of sleep. The guards switch shifts one after another every two hours.

3. Practitioner Ms. Liu Aihua's home was broken into by officers from the No. 5 Police Station around 4:00 or 5:00 p.m. on June 25, 2009. The police stole her bankbook containing 12,000 yuan, cash totaling 3,000 yuan, a gold ring, gold earrings, a cellphone, VCD, MP3 player and other items including some spare change in her purse. The police went again the next day. They were like bandits waiting nearby her home. Ms. Liu Aihua could not return to her home, lest be arrested.

The Hailar City Police Department is currently conducting the "Spring Shower Operation." They are targeting practitioners in Hailar City and Yakeshi City. The police from Hailar City have orders to monitor practitioners in Yakeshi City. Other than the few officers remaining in the police stations and on the streets, all other officers from the Yakeshi police stations have been mobilized to monitor practitioners. This campaign, implemented by the Chinese Communist regime, is truly absurd. The regime controls an entire nation's resources, yet it still fears a group of good people who believe in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance.
