(Minghui.org) At around 10:30 a.m. on September 11, 2012, in front of Jiamusi Orthopedic Hospital, several policemen were seen pulling people out of a Route 28 bus. The victims struggled and shouted as two policemen dragged each one into the hospital. Police cars surrounded the area.

All of the women arrested were innocent Falun Gong practitioners. When several were visiting their friend on the night of September 10, the police broke into the home and arrested them. After they were detained in the police station overnight, the police pretended to take them to the hospital, but their real destination was a detention station. That night, the Jiamusi police broke into the homes of three practitioners at the same time, using the same approach with lots of plainclothes officers hiding at the area ahead of time. They arrested 15 people in all, the youngest an 8-year-old girl, the oldest a 70-year-old lady. Ten people were taken to the Jiamusi Detention Station.

Officers with the Jiamusi City Police Department, the Domestic Security Bureau, the “Falun Gong Prevention” detachment, Xiangyang Police Department, Qiaonan Police Station, Jianshe Police Station, Xilin Police Station, and Chang'an Police Station carried out the arrests. Among the 15 were 11 women, a couple, an 8-year-old girl, and a college graduate. Arrested at Ms. Zhang Shuhua's home were: Ms. Zhang Shuhua (about 50, a nurse from the affiliated hospital of Jiamusi University), Ms. Zhang Shuying (in her 40s), Ms. Zhao Juan (in her 40s), Ms. Cui Xiuyun, Ms. Sun Ying (nearly 70), Ms. Liu Lijie (in her 40s), Ms. Xiang Xiaobo (in her 50s), a female practitioner in her 60s, and Ms. Zhang Shuhua's son (in his 20s, just graduated from college). The police arrested 6 people from Ms. Ren Shuxian's home: Ms. Ren Shuxian (in her 40s), Ms. Wang Yingxia (in her 50s), Mr. Zhang Liming (about 50) and his wife Qu Yujie (about 50), and an 8-year-old girl and her mother who had come with her for a piano lesson.

Arrests made at Ms. Zhang Shuhua's home

On the night of September 10, several practitioners went to visit Ms. Zhang Shuhua. At around 7 p.m. when Ms. Zhang Shuhua and Ms. Zhang Shuying went downstairs in the apartment building, plainclothes policemen hiding in the hallway arrested them and took them to the Jianshe Police Station.

Then the supervisors of the city police department and many plainclothes officers watched for a long time in the hallway, trying to figure out which apartment Ms. Zhang Shuhua had come out of. At around 9 p.m., they started to pound on her door. A man referred to as “director” used a master key and forced open the door. About 17 plainclothes officers rushed in, searched the home, and took pictures. They forced Ms. Zhang Shuhua's son to admit who his mother was and then started to ransack the place. They placed Ms. Zhang Shuhua's computer, printer, and some Falun Gong truth clarification materials together and video recorded them. They took 4 eBooks. The neat home was turned into a mess.

At around 11 p.m., Ms. Zhao Juan and Ms. Cui Xiuyun were arrested. The police put them in a car (not a police car) and left. Then the police started to drag Ms. Sun Ying and Ms. Liu Lijie downstairs. Ms. Liu refused to go. Four policemen had to carry her away. She did not wear shoes and only wore a short sleeve top. Ms. Sun and Ms. Liu were pushed into an unmarked car and taken away.

At around midnight, the four practitioners were taken to Qiaonan Police Station in the Xiangyang Police Department. At around 10:20 a.m. on September 11, the four women were taken to Jiamusi Orthopaedic Hospital as mentioned above for a physical. Officers from the Qiaonan and Jianshe police stations took them to the Jianshe Police Station.

The last group of practitioners arrested were Ms. Xiang Xiaobo, Ms. Zhang Shuhua's son, and a female practitioner in her 60s. Ms. Xiang was taken to the Jianshe Police Station. The female practitioner in her 60s passed out. The police were afraid of taking responsibility, so they called an ambulance to take her to Central Hospital. Ms. Zhang Shuhua's son was arrested and taken to the Xilin Police Station. He was wearing only a tank top and shorts. He was beaten and then taken to the Xilin Police Station and held in an iron cage. He was detained overnight, and his family kept coming to ask for him. The police tried to trick the young man into writing a statement to give up Falun Gong practice so that he could go home. Finally they took him to the Jianshe Police Station, “fined” him 5,000 yuan, then allowed his family to take him home.

A car with the license number number BlackD0253 remained parked outside the building for a long time.

Arrests made at Ms. Ren Shuxian's home

At 7:20 p.m. on the night of September 10, the police forced open the door to the home of Ms. Ren Shuxian, a piano teacher. They arrested her; Ms. Wang Yingxia; Mr. Zhang Liming and his wife, Ms. Qu Yujie; and an 8-year-old girl and her mother who had come with her for a piano lesson. Ms. Qu was taken downstairs on a stretcher. Plainclothes officers monitored pedestrians in the hallway and downstairs.

Those arrested were taken to the Jianshe Police Station. Later the 8-year-old girl was picked up and taken home by her father at around 1a.m. on September 11 after he showed his ID. The girl's mother had a serious heart problem at around 2 a.m. She was taken to the emergency room of the First Affiliated Hospital of the Jianmusi University. After a quick check, the police took her back to the Jianshe Police Station. At 8 a.m. on September 11, the mother's condition became serious again. She was taken back to the hospital. When she was dying, her family was allowed to take her home .

Ms. Zhang Shuying's temporary home was broken into, the owner implicated

Ms. Zhang Shuying temporarily lived in the home of one of her friends. At around 7 p.m. on the night of September 10, the police broke in. They took Ms. Zhang Shuying's personal belongings, such as her computer. The male landlord, who was ill at the time, was so upset by the intrusion that he could not speak. The police also confiscated the ID of Ms. Zhang Shuying's friend. The friend demanded and got her ID back, but the police refused to provide compensation for the mental and financial damage they had caused the landlord.

Ms. Zhang Shuhua, Ms. Zhang Shuying, Ms. Zhao Juan, Ms. Cui Xiuyun, Ms. Liu Lijie, Ms. Xiang Xiaobo, Ms. Ren Shuxian, Mr. Zhang Liming, Ms. Qu Yujie, and Ms. Wang Yingxia are now in Jiamusi Detention Station.
