Ms. Sun Chongzhen and Mr. Chen Guiyun Arrested Again by 610 Office Agents in Junan County, Shandong Province

Falun Dafa practitioners Ms. Sun Chongzhen and Mr. Chen Guiyun, residents of Junan County, Linyi City, were arrested by agents of the 610 Office¹ and local police on October 8th, 2007. Mr. Chen was taken to a detention centre and his wife was forced to leave home to avoid being arrested.

Around 6:00 a.m. on October 8th, 2007, Ms. Sun Chongzhen, a resident of Shigoudong Village, Dadian Town, was arrested by police from the Junan County 610 Office and Dadian Town Station who arrived in three police vehicles. Reportedly, police and agents from the 610 Office stayed at Ms. Sun's house for about two hours. Ms. Sun is probably being held somewhere in downtown Linyi City.

At around 2:00 p.m. on the same day, Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Chen Guiyun, a resident of Dunhou Village, Tingshui Town, was arrested by police from Tingshui Station and agents from the Junan County 610 Office. They confiscated all Dafa books and leaflets and an mp3 player from his home.

Ms. Sun Chongzhen, who is in her forties, was arrested because she explained the real situation of Falun Dafa on July 11th, 2003. She was detained at the Junan County Detention Centre for a month. Later she was transferred to the Jinan City Women's Labour Camp and detained there for three years. During this period, she was tortured by being hung from the ceiling by her wrists and being put in solitary confinement. During this period, her mother-in-law and her brother passed away, and she was not allowed to see them for a last visit. Ms. Sun was released in 2006 after her term had been arbitrarily extended by two extra months.

Mr. Chen Guiyun is in his late forties and he and his wife are both Falun Dafa practitioners. In 2003, police from Junan County were trying to arrest Mr. Chen Guiyun but failed. Instead, they arrested his wife Ms. Li Keju. She was eventually sentenced to two years of forced labour. In 2005, Ms. Li Keju was released but she was forced to leave home and go into hiding because she was in danger of being arrested again.
