Schoolteacher Mr. Wu Renhui Arrested for the Third Time in Guizhou Province

Mr. Wu Renhui, 40, is a teacher employed by the Chengguan School in Xiuwen County, Guiyang City, Guizhou Province. He lives in family housing for the Xinghong Machine Factory, also known as the 1028 Factory. On January 16th, 2008, Mr. Wu was arrested for the third time, leaving his mother, wife, and child at home. His mother and wife are both unemployed.

Mr. Wu has been practising Falun Gong for many years, and he has a reputation for being a good person. Yet, his belief in "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance" caused the Chinese Communist Party to sentence him to a forced labour camp twice, for a total of five years. His father became despondent and died. On the way to the forced labour camp, police officers restrained Mr. Wu's hands and legs and dragged him all the way, causing bruises and lacerations.

In the five years he was at the labour camp, Mr. Wu was subjected to many inhuman tortures. After the term ended, he returned to Chengguan School to teach. While informing students about the persecution of Falun Gong and dispelling the state propaganda attacking the practice, Chai Yizhong (male), a teacher from the Chengguan School, reported him to police officers from the Longchang Town Station. The school's principal, Chen (gender and given name unknown), deceived Mr. Wu by telling him that he needed to do school security duty and then notified police officer Liu Wei (male) so he could arrest him at the school. During the detention period, no one was allowed to visit Mr. Wu.

Mr. Wu was released from the Zhongba Forced Labour Camp in April 2007. In December 2007, the County Education Bureau repeatedly tried to force him to write the three statements, promising to give up his belief.

He was cornered and arrested on January 16th, 2008, and detained for 15 days in the Longchang Town Police Station. The authorities demanded that he give up cultivation and provide other practitioners' names and information. After Mr. Wu refused, they sentenced him to two years of forced labour and took him to the Guizhou Province Zhongba Forced Labour Camp.
