Police Kidnap a New Practitioner and Beat up Her Husband

Seventy days prior to the National Day Holiday (On October 1, 2001), Jiang Zemin's criminal regime started a large-scale raid. In a county of Liaoning Province, local police arrested all practitioners in the district in order to interrogate, force them to write 'guarantee' letters and to extort 'fines' from them. These practitioners and their family members were physically tortured. Those who did not write the guarantee letters were sent to forced labour camps. Ms Huang, a new practitioner, prior to cultivation, had suffered from uremia, (a kidney ailment) which led to edema all over her body. As the disease could not be cured even in the famous hospitals in Liaoning Province, and she could not afford to pay for medical expenses, she began to practise Falun Gong with some practitioners' help. Shortly afterwards, the edema disappeared. She was almost fully recovered. She was not spared from the raid, however. Like other practitioners, she was forcibly taken to the police station and fined. Her husband was beaten up because of her. He still feels pain in his chest. During this raid, the police extorted over 100,000 Yuan [About 500 Yuan is the average monthly income in an urban area of China] by "fining" the practitioners.

Nowadays, the citizens in this area are terrified. They dare not to talk with practitioners or get in touch with them. If the police find someone contacting the practitioners, that person will be tortured and fined a great amount of money. They will even be put into a forced labour camp if they do not have the money. Practitioners are insulted without precedent.
