Persecution of Falun Dafa Practitioners in Qianxi County

Since 2004, Party members from the Qianxi County 610 Office¹, the county police department and the National Security Bureau have continued to carry out the Party's persecution policy, forcing the residential administration office and the village and township administration offices to conduct surveillance, tap telephones, monitor homes, and play many other dirty tricks to persecute Dafa practitioners. There were several incidents when practitioners were arrested and held for two years. They have now committed new crimes against practitioners.

1. In July 2004 when Dafa practitioner Mr. Wei Chunqi from Qianxi was telling the facts of Falun Dafa to people, he was put in the Hehuakeng Forced Labour Camp in Tangshan by the Qianxi County 610 Office, the county police department and the National Security Bureau. He was sentenced to 18 months in the forced labour camp. His family member had a really hard time without him, developed many illnesses, could hardly take care of him/herself. Under these circumstances, Wei Chunqi's employer agreed to provide assistance for Mr. Wei's release so that he could take care of his family. However, Qianxi County 610 Office head Long Lihua refused to sign the release form, and threatened that if Wei did not "reform²," he would not be released even when his sentence in the labour camp was over.

2. In December, 2004, when practitioners Zhang Chunkai, Ma Yinchun, Yang Xiujun, and Ma Guifen from East-Garden Township went to West-Garden Village to visit an old man sick in bed, their visit was reported to the authorities by the West-Garden Village secretary, Tian Wensheng. The four were taken to the Qianxi County Detention Centre to be persecuted. It was said that Ms. Ma Guifen escaped from the detention centre, but there's no further information about her current location. The other three practitioners were released after being detained for 15 days. In March 2005 the police arrested practitioner Mr. Ma Yinchun and took him to the Tangshan Brainwashing Centre. At that time, they also drove around and tried to locate and arrest practitioner Mr. Zhang Chunkai of Huangyan Village. They didn't find him until September 2005, when they caught him in his home and sent him to Tangshan Brainwashing Centre to be persecuted. Their purpose in arresting these Falun Gong practitioners was to force them to give up the practise amd write something slanderous about Dafa and Teacher. After their release, the police continued to go to their residences to harass them.

3. In May 2005, some Party members of the Sahe Township government and Sahe Village, along with the township police, broke into the homes of practitioners Chai Jinyin and Cai Yuxuan, searched their homes illegally, and arrested Mr. and Mrs. Chai Jinyin and Mr. and Mrs. Cai Yuxuan and took them to the Qianxi County Detention Centre. Later, police, along with the county National Security Bureau, broke into practitioner Mr. Guan Zhenzhu's home in Geziyu Village. After searching his home, they put him in the county detention centre. These five practitioners were released after being illegally detained for over two weeks. From June to July, the county 610 Office, the county police department, and National Security Bureau arrested Chai Jinyin and Cai Yuxuan and took them to the Tangshan Brainwashing Centre to persecute them for more than 20 days. They then put their wives in the brainwashing centre for two weeks. In September, the county police and National Security Bureau, together with Hanerzhuang Township police, once again surrounded Mr. Guan Zhenzhu's home, arrested him, and took him to the Qianxi Hotel to persecute him for more than 20 days. They didn't allow him to sleep, didn't allow him to see his family members, and tried to force him to give up his belief.

Because of the Party's ongoing, relentless persecution, both Dafa practitioners and their family members have undergone great spiritual suffering. Nevertheless, practitioners continue to clarify the truth in spite of the risk of imprisonment just to let people know the true facts of Falun Dafa, to extricate people from deceit.

"Gods must punish those criminals who have sinned against Falun Dafa. Those who refuse to do the right thing and instead continue to follow the scoundrel Jiang's regime's persecution policies will be severely punished as perpetrators of unforgivable crimes."("Falun Dafa Association Announcement")

Falun Gong's advice with the warning is not a joke. We hope that those who have been involved in the persecution will wake up, correct their own wrongdoings, and pursue restitution by doing good deeds.
