Ms. Ma Rei, aged 40, was a dance teacher in Zhoukou City College for Vocational Training. In October 1999, following an illegal search by police of her residence, she was taken to Shenqiu Detention Centre from her home in Shenqiu County. Later she was transferred and kept in the Xiangcheng County Detention Centre for a couple of weeks.
In December 2000, she was taken away from Tiananmen Square. The Shenqiu Police brought her back to the Shenqiu Detention Centre and kept her there until May 2001.
In December 2001, she was again abducted from the college where she worked and her home was ransacked again. She was illegally detained in Shenqiu Detention Centre until July 2002, when she was unjustly sentenced to three years of forced labour in Shibalihe Women's Labour Camp, Zhengzhou City, Henan Province, only for practising the peaceful exercises of Falun Gong. She is still in detention to this day.
The persecution of Mr. Cheng Jinjing
Mr. Cheng Jinjing, aged 54, was the Director of the Zhoukou City Technology Control Board of Henan Province. Since July 1999, Mr. Cheng was often harassed by the local police.
In August 2000, Mr. Cheng was abducted from his home after the police ransacked the place. He was taken directly to the Xiangcheng County Detention Centre, where he was illegally detained for four months. A "bond" of 4,000 Yuan was extorted from Mr. Cheng, and only then was he released.
Because of frequent harassment from the local police, Mr. Cheng was forced to stay away from home for several months. In August 2002, he was abducted again from his home and illegally detained in Xiangcheng County Detention Centre, where he remains today.
