Zhuhai City 610 Office Continues to Persecute Ms. Zhao Juanjuan

On the morning of January 3rd, 2008, the head of the Doumen District 610 Office¹ in Zhuhai in Guangdong Province, Wu Zebo, again sent police to monitor Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Zhao Juanjuan's home. At around 5 pm, six or seven police officers broke into Zhao Juanjuan's home and ransacked it. They took away his printer, Falun Gong books, leaflets exposing the persecution, and other personal belongings. They even took away Zhao Juanjuan's notebook, in which he wrote some Falun Gong related content.

On the morning of January 18th, 2008, Zhao Juanjuan was accosted by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) police again on the street. She did not cooperate with them. Four police officers (three male and one female) besieged her and forcefully lifted her into the vehicle and took her to the Third Detention Centre in Zhuhai. Because Zhao Juanjuan exceeded the age limit, the detention centre did not accept her. So, the police took her to the Second Detention Centre. But the Second Detention Centre also refused to accept her, due to her health condition. The police then sent her to the Zhuhai City People's Hospital to do a physical exam and then sent her back to the Second Detention Centre. But the detention centre still refused to accept her.

During the whole process, Zhao Juanjuan did not cooperate with the CCP police's persecution. The police brutally forced her into and out of the vehicle, continuously abusing her. Since none of the detention centres would accept her, she was taken back home at 5pm.

The director of the two arresting officers was Wu Zebo, the head of the Doumen District 610 Office in Zhuhai. He has persecuted Falun Gong practitioners many times.

Before Zhao Juanjuan started to practise Falun Gong, she suffered from illnesses and it was very painful. After she started to practise Falun Gong, her health condition became very good and her mind became fresh. Since July 1999, she was put into a brainwashing class and a forced labour camp by the CCP many times. The CCP even sent her to a mental hospital to torture her. She twice became homeless to avoid arrest. In June 2004, she was arrested again in Guangzhou. She was cuffed and blindfolded. She was transfered to many places and was finally detained at the brainwashing class in the Minfu Hotel in Zhuhai. On December 2nd, 2005, about half a year after she was released, she was arrested again, together with her daughter, Lu Jianwen. Lu Jianwen is an English teacher in the Fourth Elementary School in Doumen District. She was sentenced to two years of forced labour for practising Falun Gong.

Zhao Juanjuan was sentenced to three years in December 2005. Because her age exceeded the age limit and her physical exam did not go well, the Guangdong Province Women Prison did not accept her. The CCP had to change the sentence to house arrest. When it was a CCP "sensitive day," CCP personnel monitored her home and followed her when she was out. On June 25th, 2007, Zhao Juanjuan went to the Guangzhou Women Prison to visit her daughter, Lu Jianwen, who was sentenced to three years in prison. Just half an hour after she left, the local police station sent police to look for her at her home. When they found out that she went to Guangzhou, they were very nervous. They threatened her husband and forced him to call her to ask her come back immediately. During the few days after she left, the 610 Office called her home every day and sent police to harass her husband every day. She went back home on June 28th, 2007. On the morning of June 29th, the police station and the local residents' committee sent three people to monitor her. They used a stool to climb up to the roof to peep in on her from the vented window on the roof. Two more people guarded her front door at all times from 6 o'clock in the morning until 12 o'clock at night.
