Yang Xiuling is a 49-year-old Dafa practitioner from Zhoukou City, Henan Province. She was seized by personnel from national security at the beginning of May 2006. Yu Yiyun, head of the 610 Office1 in Zhoukou City, bragged that he would sentence Yang Xiuling. She was sentenced by Chuanhui District Court to 10 years, but the prison officers refused to accept her. Her case was rejected and retried by Zhoukou Intermediate court due to "insufficient evidence" on December 15th. Yang Xiuling spoke out for justice and explained the facts about Falun Dafa to the public prosecutor and the judge. Her lawyer defended her innocence in court. Finally, the trial ended without a conviction.
Yang Xiuling was the family member of one of the staff members of the Shenqiu City Normal School. She started to practise Falun Gong on July 22nd, 1999 in Shenyue Town. After she started cultivation, her illnesses vanished. Before cultivating, her personality was very harsh and she had difficulty communicating with others. But after she started cultivating, she became compassionate and always considered others first. After July 20th, 1999, she went to Beijing to appeal twice. She was arrested by the Shenqiu National Security Team and detained in jail.
Yang Xiuling was arrested and persecuted several times by her local policemen. She spent two New Year's celebrations in jail. During this period, she suffered slander and torture. Police put 30 lb. shackles on her feet and forced her to run around the courtyard of the prison. In spite of this, her determination in cultivation has become stronger.
When she was released from the Shenqiu Detention Centre, Yang Xiuling's mother-in-law was seriously ill and bedridden. In order to reduce the burden for her brother and his wife, Yang Xiuling took the load in caring for her brother's mother-in-law. Every day, she helped her mother-in-law to take medicine and change clothes, and she cleaned her bodily waste with meticulous care and without complaint. After two months, her mother-in-law died and was buried peacefully. This behaviour won the gratitude and admiration of her husband's family.
Her husband was deceived by the lies and was frightened by the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) high-pressure terror tactics. In fear of being persecuted also, he divorced her. She did not have any source of income, so she started to do some work to support herself and her 80-year-old mother. Yang Xiuling still continued to expose the CCP's lies.
On May 4th, 2006, she was reported by someone and several police officers from the State Security Division of Zhoukou City in Henan Province broke into Ms. Yang Xiuling's home and arrested her. The policemen took away her computer, printer and leaflets exposing the persecution. She was taken to the Zhoukou Detention Centre and tortured. Now, seven months have passed. During this period, the head of the Provincial 610 Office was directly involved in persecuting her. Yu Yiyun, a member of the Zhoukou 610 Office, bragged that Yang Xiuling would be heavily sentenced. Also, he pressured Chuanhui District Court, where she was sentenced to 10 years in jail.
When Yang Xiuling's case was exposed on the Minghui/Clearwisdom website, people telephoned the perpetrators to aid her release. Additionally, they suggested that her family members could ask for assistance for Yang Xiuling from related government officials, as well as ask a lawyer to file a lawsuit. These things had a good effect. Officers from the 610 Office tried to send Ms. Yang to different prisons in other cities, but none of them would accept her. Chuanhui District Court reported that the first sentence by Zhoukou Intermediate Court was rejected due to "insufficient evidence."
On December 15th, 2006, Chuanhui District Court started a second trial. Yang Xiuling spoke out for justice for Falun Dafa to the public prosecutor and to the judge, and her lawyer defended her innocence in court. The atmosphere in the court was very peaceful.
