(Clearwisdom.net) Chinese Communist Party (CCP) members in Jilin escalated their persecution of Falun Gong practitioners during the “Two Conferences” (The National People's Congress Conference and the Chinese People’s Political Consultative Conference). The increased persecution targeted practitioners following the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. Authorities set out to deliberately create an atmosphere of terror. CCP members from the street committees, police stations, and other offices in Jilin broke into practitioners’ homes. They harassed, threatened, and arrested practitioners, then ransacked their homes.
Officers from the Beiji Street Police Station went to Ms. Jia Xiuru’s home and broke down her door. They also broke into the home of Liu Jianyun. Without showing warrants, they searched and ransacked every room. Jia Xiuru and Liu Jianyun are both senior citizens. They were previously arrested by Beiji police on the evening of June 18, 2008. They were sentenced and taken to forced labor camps.
Mr. Li Wenjun and his family, who live in the Fengman District in Jilin, were harassed and threatened.
At noon on March 4, seven practitioners including Yang Shuhua, Yang Shuyun, Li Chunfang, Meng Guilan, Xu, Xue, and Liu were arrested in the Beiningli area by officers from the Nanjing Street Police Station while they were studying the Falun Gong teachings in a fellow practitioner’s home. During the arrest, police hired a locksmith to break into their room. The officers beat and injured all seven practitioners. Later, the police broke into their homes and confiscated their personal belongings. Currently, three practitioners, including Yang Shuhua and Yang Shuyun, are being held in the Jilin Detention Center. The other four practitioners are being tortured in the brainwashing center located at the Shahezi area Xiaoguang 4th Division welfare building.
At approximately 3:00 p.m. on March 4, three officials from the Fengman District Wangqi Town Police Station led by the director, along with five to six officials from the Fengman Public Security Bureau, broke into Mr. Liu Yanchen’s home in the Fengman District in Fengmantun Village.
