In 1996, Mr. Feng Zhigang was employed at the Huangshi Aluminum Galvanization Factory in Huangshi City, Hubei Province. His supervisors consistently recognized him as a model worker and even the local police agreed that he was an outstanding citizen.
After Jiang Zemin's [former leader of China and instigator of the persecution] gang started persecuting Falun Gong on July 20th, 1999, the local government continually harassed Mr. Feng to the point that he was forced to leave home for more than six months to avoid being persecuted.
In early 2001, Mr. Feng went to Beijing to appeal for justice for Falun Gong. The police arrested him and took him back to Guangzhou where he was detained for about six weeks. He was later sentenced to one and a half years in the Shizishan Forced Labour Camp in Wuhan City, Hubei Province.
During his incarceration, he was brutally persecuted and beaten to the brink of death. Afraid of accepting responsibility for his condition, the guards waited until March 2002 to notify his family of his health condition. He was later released on bail for medical treatment.
Mr. Feng was so severely tortured that his rib area developed ulcers and his lungs filled with fluid. In surgery, three of his ribs had to be shortened, and he barely made it through the operation. However, due to the fact that he continued practising Falun Gong, he fully recovered.
In August 2005, Mr. Feng was arrested again, this time at a friend's home in Huangshi City. He was brutally beaten and sentenced to two and a half years in the Shayang Forced Labour Camp.
Due to the mental and physical torture he was forced to endure, his health steadily worsened. Later he was released on bail for medical treatment. However, due to the continuous harassment from the local police, Mr. Feng was forced to leave home in early 2006 to avoid further persecution.
On September 23rd, 2007, Mr. Feng was arrested by police officers from the Tianhe Police Station 610 Office1 in Tianhe District, Guangzhou City. While being held in solitary confinement in the Tianhe Detention Centre, Mr. Feng's body became weak and bloated. On numerous occasions, his family traveled long distances to visit him, but each time they arrived, the guards would not allow them to see Mr. Feng.
On May 30th, 2008, the Tianhe District Court in Guangzhou City sentenced Mr. Feng to four years in a forced labour camp - despite the fact that Mr. Feng entered a not-guilty plea and local practitioners explained the facts about Falun Gong to the court. When the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) administrators read aloud the verdict, Mr. Feng felt nauseated and vomited.
Seeing the futility of going through these ridiculous court formalities, Mr. Feng went from seeking an appeal to refusing to appeal. Mr. Feng and his family firmly rejected the court's verdict. They know first hand that the CCP has never followed the law in its treatment of Falun Gong.
Mr. Feng is currently detained at the Tianhe Detention Centre. Due to endless rounds of torture, Mr. Feng is now suffering from severe internal injuries. On numerous occasions his family has requested that the Guangzhou City's law-enforcement departments release Mr. Feng on bail, for medical treatment. However, to date, his family has not received a reply.
