Feb. 21, 2010 |   By our correspondent in Hubei Province

(Clearwisdom.net) Mr. Liu Deyu is a Falun Gong practitioner in Jingmen City, Hubei Province. On February 4, 2010, his wife went to the relative department to ask about his situation, but was told that Dongbao District Court in Jingmen sentenced Mr. Liu to a four-year prison term on February 3, 2010, and he could only appeal until February 8, 2010. Actually the court had made the decision long before but never informed her. It was a lie to claim that he had been sentenced the day before, leaving only four days to appeal.

Mr. Liu, 54, works in the Epidemic Prevention Station in Jingmen City, Hubei Province. He was arrested six months ago, and has been detained in Huyaguan Detention Center since.

Since July 20, 1999, the CCP has been persecuting Falun Gong and Mr. Liu has been persecuted many times. He was once sentenced to Shayang Forced Labor Camp for three years. After his release, the Jingmen 610 Office pressured Mr. Liu's department to threaten him with firing. He was forced to undergo brainwashing and was detained many times. He suffered greatly from continuous abuse and persecution. His family is also very stressed.

At around 10 a.m. on June 23, 2009, when telling people about Falun Gong, Mr. Liu was beaten by police and was injured. He then was forced into homelessness. Mr. Liu went to Zhijiang City, Hubei, and earned a living selling socks. He was then detained in Huyaguan Detention Center in Jingmen City. The arresting officer on the arrest warrant is Xu Yue, an instructor for the National Security Division in the Dongbao Branch of Jingmen City Public Security Bureau.

On July 17, 2009, an arrest warrant was issued for Mr. Liu. He was detained in Huyaguan Detention Center by Jia Zhenjun, the director of Dongbao District National Security Division in Jingmen City. Jia is highly implicated in the death of Falun Gong practitioner Chen Qiji in Jingmen City.

From the end of 2009 to early 2010, Dongbao District Court secretly tried four Falun Gong practitioners in Jingmen, including Mr. Liu. Not permitted an attorney, Mr. Liu had to defend himself. The Falun Gong practitioners' defense was reasonable and sound, and the judges were rendered speechless. They hastily announced an adjournment and met secretly to incriminate them.

People leading the persecution of Mr. Liu include Tian Changbing, Jia Zhenjun and Xu Yue.
