Falun Dafa Practitioner Mr. Liu Hongwei on Hunger Strike at Jilin City Detention Centre

On October 24th, 2006, Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Liu Hongwei from Jilin City and his wife Mu Ping were arrested by National Security personnel. Afterwards, their home was ransacked and property such as their computer, cash, a 70,000 yuan¹ bankbook, Dafa books, VCDs exposing the persecution, and other items were confiscated. On October 25th, Falun Dafa practitioners Mr. Liu Hongwei and Ms. Mu Ping were imprisoned at the Jilin Municipal Detention Centre. Liu Hongwei and Mu Ping have been imprisoned in the detention centre respectively, for two and a half months.

During this period the police interrogated and tortured Mr. Liu many times, causing severe injuries; now he has difficulty walking. His over 70-year-old mother went to the interrogation section of the Chuanying District Police Department many times to ask the person directly responsible, Wang Shouyi (male), about Mr. Liu Hongwei's health situation and the reason why the police beat him. Wang Shouyi quibbled: "We did not beat anyone." After Mr. Liu's family members' repeated enquiries, Wang Shouyi said, "Mr. Liu Hongwei's leg was not injured. His lower back was, but that has nothing to do with us, since it was injured at Kouqian Town in Jilin Province." We know from this that during Mr. Liu Hongwei's imprisonment at the detention centre he was interrogated by the police and suffered torture aiming to force him to give them information to use as evidence to sentence him.

On November 28th, the Jilin Municipal Chuanying District Procuratorate gave out a notice of authorisation for the arrest of Falun Dafa practitioners Mr. Liu Hongwei and Ms. Mu Ping. Liu Hongwei refused to sign the arrest notice. It is known now that Mr. Liu has been on a hunger strike at the detention centre to resist this persecution.
