Ms. Lin Haiqing, 38, lived at Xinhui supermarket of Chaoyang City. In March 2006, policemen from the Xiangyang Police Station arrested her while she was explaining the true situation of Falun Gong. Her home was ransacked, and the police confiscated a Falun Gong book and one thousand yuan1. On May 20th, Lin Haiqing was sent to Shenyang City. After she was arrested, police from the Xiangyang Police Station extorted 50 thousand yuan from her family, yet she was not released.
Lin Haiqing's daughter, Wang Yue, 16, is a student of the Third High School of Chaoyang City. At around 3:40 p.m. on May 21st, 2006, a policeman from Xiangyang Police Station called her and wanted her to send a 500 yuan fee, for transporting her mother to Shenyang City. Wang Yue refused the request. The policeman said, "Wait for me, I am coming to your home." Wang Yue and her father were at their home. He asked Wang Yue to hide, but she refused. After a while, two policewomen and a policeman arrived. They asked Wang Yue if she practised Falun Gong. She answered, "Yes." They said, "You will come with us later." In addition, they threatened Wang Yue's classmate that if she practised Falun Gong, she should also go with them. Her classmate said, "Why should I go with you, I haven't done anything wrong." The policewomen and policeman wanted to take the computer from Wang Yue's home. Wang Yue's father said, "If you want to take the computer away, return the 50 thousand yuan." They said, "The money has all been spent by People's Police." They handcuffed the 16-year-old Wang Yue and took her to the Xiangyang Police Station. Given no choice, Wang Yue's father brought 500 yuan to bail out his daughter in the evening.
Wang Yue's father had to go to away to work, so he sent her to her aunt's home. The police arrived there and threatened her aunt's family. Wang Yue's relatives were so scared that no one was willing to help her. Her father could only reserve a room for her at Chaoyang Friendship Hotel at a cost of 80 yuan per day. Still, the police would not give up, and a policewoman was arranged to follow and monitor Wang Yue. Under the threats and harassments from the police, Wang Yue had no way out. On May 27th, she went to Daling River and even considered suicide, as her only way to escape the unreasonable pestering of the police. Fortunately, her classmates and their family members found out and rushed there to stop her. (Note: Suicide is against the principles of Falun Gong.) After that, the police still did not stop harassing her. They forced her to disclose all the people she has contact with. As of May 29, Wang Yue has not gone to school for several days. Currently, the police are investigating Wang Yue's contacts and classmates. A plainclothes policeman from Xiangyang Police Station has been arranged to monitor Wang Yue and collect Wang Yue's information from the security guard. The police intend to further persecute Wang Yue.
While one police officer was harassing Wang Yue, he (or she) broke her mobile phone and removed the calling card, then installed it in his (or her) own mobile phone.
The behaviour of the police officers from Xiangyang Police Station seriously violates the law. We call on all righteous people to pay attention to this incident.
