(Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Zhu Lihua, a Falun Gong practitioner from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital in Li County, Baoding City, has been persecuted many times during the past ten years. She was sentenced to forced labor in September 2009. After her term expired on March 22, 2011, officials from Shijiazhuang City Forced Labor Camp extended her term.
Several people were involved in the persecution of Ms. Zhu, including Wang Yongze (head of the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital in Li County, Baoding), Zhai Zhangsuo (deputy head), Tian Yuxin (deputy head), and Zhao Xinli (assistant). They collaborated with the 610 Office to persecute Ms. Zhu, fired her, and discontinued her salary. They also confiscated her ID card during the Beijing Olympics in 2008, withholding it to date. 610 Office officials submitted additional materials to incriminate Ms. Zhu in September 2009 and sent her to a labor camp.
Under the instruction of Li County Police Department head Guo Jianmin, police officers including Guodan Town Police Station head Han Dakuan arrested Ms. Zhu at home at 7:00 p.m. on September 23, 2009, when she was having dinner. They confiscated a computer, two cell phones, Falun Gong books, and an MP4 player. The next day, they sent her to the Shijiazhuang City Women’s Forced Labor Camp to server a term of one and a half years.
Prior to the detention, Ms. Zhu Lihua was a very healthy individual, but the mistreatment and torture at Division 4 in the labor camp led to numerous illnesses including heart disease, enlargement of the lymph nodes and various areas of swelling on the body (on the head, neck, arm, and crotch). Nonetheless, the guards still forced Ms. Zhu to stand for extended periods of time, watching others labor. When she was too weak to stand, the guards forced her to sit on the cold cement floor, and prohibited her from using the toilet. Once, when Ms. Zhu was urinating in the toilet, guard Zhao Yuan hurried to the bathroom and kicked her on her bottom while forcibly pulling her up. As a result, Ms. Zhu urinated in her pants. On another occasion, on a very windy and cold night, Zhao Yuan forced Ms. Zhu, who was asleep, to get up and sit on the cold cement floor for the entire night.
Guard Gao Xinlei slapped Ms. Zhu in the face more than 20 times in late March 2011 for not turning her head during the roll call. After this, she experienced dizziness and her face became swollen. Her health started to deteriorate.
Ms. Zhu Lihua’s term expired on March 22, 2011. However, because she refused to renounce her belief in Falun Gong, labor camp officials extended her term and denied family visits. After Ms. Zhu’s arrest, her father-in-law was so worried that his prior illness became aggravated and he passed away four months later.
Ms. Zhu began practicing Falun Gong in 1998. Her illnesses, which included hyperplasia of the mammary glands, sciatica, gastric ulcer, sinusitis, and nervous headache, all disappeared after she started practicing. After the persecution started on July 20, 1999, Wang Yongze and other officials at the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital in Li County tried to force Ms. Zhu to write statements promising to give up her belief.
When Ms. Zhu went to Beijing to appeal for justice on December 18, 1999, officials from the Li County Liaison Office in Beijing extorted 3,000 yuan from her workplace. After sending Ms. Zhu to the Li County Detention Center, officials extorted 10,000 yuan from her family.
Officials from Ms. Zhu's workplace deceived her at work in 2001 and detained her at the Balizhuang Brainwashing Center for several days. They also extorted 1,000 another yuan from her.
Ms. Zhu was sent to a brainwashing center at the Li County Seed Company in 2002. Officials also extorted 1,000 yuan from her workplace. Wang Daqiang, party secretary of the Health Bureau was involved in this round of persecution.
Several officials from the Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital were directly responsible for the persecution of Ms. Zhu, including Wang Yongze (hospital head), Zhai Zhangsuo (deputy head), Tian Yuxin (deputy head), and Zhao Xinli (assistant). They were all aware that Ms. Zhu’s health had improved through practicing Falun Gong and that she followed the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. Nonetheless, these officials, under pressure from 610 Office and Health Bureau officials, actively persecuted Ms. Zhu. They assumed that by working with 610 Office officials and sending her to the labor camp, their problems would end. These acts were carried out at the price of Ms. Zhu's, and her family's lives and happiness.
