I went to Beijing to appeal on May 28th. My house was ransacked on May 29th. Corrupt officials from the township government took away three TVs, a fridge, two washing machines, two electric fans, a gas stove, a dinner table, four chairs that belonged to my two sons and a desk lamp that my grandson used to study. I was detained for 58 days. On the day of my release, they extorted 2800 Yuan [Chinese currency, the average Urban worker’ salary is 500 Yuan per month] from my family. This included a 2500 Yuan deposit and 230 Yuan of 'food expenses'. My family members gave them the money without consulting me. The vicious people from the township government said that if I want my possessions back, I should pay them 6000 Yuan.
The lawless officials of the county government, in order to protect their own political positions, bribed a Beijing Detention Centre with 30,000 Yuan that they had extorted from Falun Dafa practitioners.
