(Clearwisdom.net) On the morning of May 13, 2011, Mr. Guo Jiahong, Mr. Guo Jiafu and Mr. Guo Jiasheng, three brothers from Zerzhuang village, Beiyuan Street, Kuiwen District, Weifang City, Shandong Province, were taken away from home by officers from the Domestic Security Team.
The whole family started to practice Falun Gong in 1996. The parents' various illnesses soon disappeared. The three brothers were honest and treated their parents with filial respect. They had a happy family.
The youngest of the three brothers, Mr. Guo Jiasheng had been previously arrested and detained on October 28, 2002. Not knowing his son's whereabouts, father Mr. Guo Huiming died from grief and stress on February 11, 2003. Mr. Guo Jiasheng was later sentenced to ten years in prison in August 2003. His mother Ms. Cui Zhimin could not bear the severe mental anguish and died on December 14, 2004. The other two brothers were sentenced to one and a half years of forced labor in 2007.
Youngest Brother Mr. Guo Jiasheng Arrested Many Times
The youngest brother, Mr. Guo Jiasheng, went to Beijing to appeal to appeal for justice for Falun Gong in June 1999. He was illegally detained several times by his work unit, Weifang Plastic Factory, and was fired from his workplace eventually. On April 6, 2002, Mr. Guo was arrested and incarcerated in the brainwashing center at the Weifang Industrial Training School. He escaped and had to leave home to avoid further persecution. However, he was again arrested at his rental place on October 28, 2002. He was sent to the Kuiwen District Detention Center and tortured. He was subsequently sent to the notorious Changle Forced Labor Camp, where he suffered additional cruel torture. As a result of the persecution, his eyesight started to fail, and he was so thin that his family members barely recognized him. Mr. Guo Jiasheng was sentenced to ten years in prison on August 5, 2003, and was held in the Shandong Province Prison in Jinan City. He was again tortured in the prison.
Parents Passed Away
The father of the family, Mr. Guo Huiming was arrested, detained and fined when he attempted to go to Beijing to appeal in October 2000. The electricity to his home was cut off. His youngest son, Mr. Guo Jiasheng was arrested on October 28, 2002. However, the authorities in Weifang City did not notify his family of his arrest until a year later. Not knowing whether his son was alive or dead, Mr. Guo Huiming could not bear the physical and mental stress, and died on February 11, 2003 at the age of 72.
After the father's death and the youngest son's imprisonment, the mother, Ms. Cui Zhimin could not bear such severe mental anguish and died on December 14, 2004.
Two Brothers Sent to Forced Labor
At noon on September 11, 2007, a large number of plainclothes officers dispatched by the Kuiwen District Police Department in Weifang City arrested the other two brothers, Mr. Guo Jiahong and Mr. Guo Jiafu. The police took all valuables from their home. Their relatives asked around, and several months later, they learned that the two brothers had been sent to a forced labor camp to serve a one-and-a-half-year term.
