The Husband of a Dafa Practitioner in Hebei Province Describes the Hardships the Persecution Has Brought to His Family

My wife is a Falun Gong practitioner, while I am not. After July 20, 1999, the police from Shenzhou City have come to harass my family many times. They have broken into my house and ransacked it and have abducted and detained my wife illegally. They also fined me 885 yuan. (1)

On February 23, 2004, my wife stopped by her fellow practitioner Liu Cangsheng's house. Wei Yansui, the director of the Judicature Office along with Wang Huailai and Liu Yicun, the Director of the Police Station, broke into Liu Cangsheng's house, ransacked the house and arrested Liu Cangsheng and my wife illegally. After failing to find any evidence of wrongdoing, they concocted a charge, "conspiring to commit a crime," and sent Liu Cangsheng and my wife to the Shenzhou City Police Department's Jail for 81 days. There Liu Cangsheng and my wife were charged 20 yuan for food every day. Actually they were only served two steamed buns made of corn, one bowl of gruel, and a few pickles for each meal. Liu Cangsheng's husband and I went to the Political and Judiciary Office in the police department to demand their release, but they refused. The jail violated its own policy and detained Dafa practitioners with the murderer, Ma Wennong. When going out for exercise, Ma Wennong picked up a 2-meter-long bench and beat Liu Changsheng in the head 3 times until someone in the cell rushed out and put a stop to it. Liu Cangsheng's head needed 7 stitches, and another 6 stitches were required above her eye. She was lucky not to have been beaten to death. After the incident, to shirk responsibility, the police department released Liu Cangsheng and my wife.

During my wife Li Bo's detainment, I could hardly take care of my family. My 14-year-old daughter is paralyzed and bedridden and my 11-year-old son is a student. The heavy burden of life all weighed down on me. After learning from the police that my wife would be sentenced for 2 to 3 years in prison, my mental burden increased. Since I had no way to do shady dealings with the police, I was so worried that I was unable to eat and sleep and felt restless. As a result, I developed gastralgia, dizziness, headaches, fatigue, malaise, and a trembling in my hands. Therefore I had to give away my fields for others to plough. The doctor diagnosed me with a nervous disorder caused by anxiety. I was in pain the whole day.

Hereby, I call for all just people around the world to help put a stop to this evil persecution and end such tragedies. Restore basic rights back to the common people.
