Because of his firm belief in Dafa, Peng Min suffered physical abuse in jail and was severely injured. After being sent to a hospital, he received no treatment and died there. His mother, Li Yingxiu, and elder brother Peng Liang, were sent to a brainwashing centre. Due to the evil authority's persecution and the mental agony of losing a son, Li Yingxiu came down with an illness and was sent to a hospital. She died there several days later. When Min's elder brother Peng Liang and father Peng Weisheng went to pay their last respects to her remains, they found that Li Yingxiu's hair had been shaved, her head had been drilled into, her nose and mouth were filled with blood, and her clothes were bloodstained as well. Peng Weisheng asked the workers there for the true cause of his wife's death, but nobody answered him.
Then, Peng Weisheng was sent back to the brainwashing centre, transferred later to a detention centre and was later sent to a brainwashing centre again. He escaped once from the brainwashing centre and passed many different places to reach Xinjiang Province. Later, the Police Department of Wuchang District in Wuhan City spent a lot of money and effort to finding him and sending him back to Wuhan. Since then, he has been detained in a brainwashing centre, but he still has the firm belief and solid determination to uphold Falun Dafa.
Min's elder brother Peng Liang was cruelly persecuted and forced to write a letter of guarantee. After that, he was released. With the help fellow practitioners, he filed a lawsuit in a United States court against the associate director Zhao Zhifei of the Police Department of Hubei Province and Zhao received a court summons during his visit to the U.S. After returning to China, Zhao began rampantly seeking revenge. Many Falun Gong practitioners who once took Peng Liang in and helped him were arrested and Peng Liang himself was also arrested in August 2001.
After being arrested, Peng Liang was detained more than once in the Second Detention Centre of Wuhan City, where the jailed are usually long term criminals and convicts are sentenced to death. Later he was transferred to Qinglin Detention Center of Wuchang District and finally to the brainwashing center of the "610 Office" of Wuchang District. He was constantly monitored by police and collaborators [former Falun Gong practitioners who have gone astray due to brainwashing and torture]. In response, he often said, "Whatever is obviously white, they are desperately forcing me to say is black." Whenever he said this, the evil people threatened him by saying: "Don't talk nonsense! If you say this in public, you may disappear the next day."
Min's younger sister Peng Yan was secretly sentenced to three years of imprisonment by the Court of Wuchang District. During the Spring Festival of 2000, she was in the women's jail taking part in collectively reading aloud "Lunyu" [the preface of "Zhuan Falun", the main Dafa book] to support other practitioners. During that time, she was tied on the "Death Bed." Policemen rushed into her cell to beat and kick her while she continued clarifying the truth to them with compassion. One year later, after her mother and brother were killed, prison guards received orders from their leaders asking them to "transform" her at any cost, and the most evil people were chosen to do it. Her three-year term is over, but we do not know yet if, in fact, she has regained her freedom.
