Police Arrest Mr. Han Huiliang; His Disabled Son Misses Him

Falun Gong practitioner, Mr. Han Huiliang, from Tangshan City, Hebei Province, has a mentally retarded, 21-year-old son. His son has a difficult time pronouncing his words clearly and needs to be looked after at all times. Since his father's recent arrest, the boy has been repeating out loud the same sentence over and over again: "I want my daddy, I want my daddy!"

On the morning of July 29th, 2008 , a few days before the Olympic Torch relay in Tangshan, Mr. Han was driving his van to his shop when all of a sudden the following four police officers blocked his way: Zhang Xiuzhong and Wang Li from the Lunan Police Department; Li Taijiang from the Youyili local police station, and a Youyi sub-district office personnel.

Then, seven or eight people forcefully arrested Mr. Han and impounded his vehicle. They then grabbed his two mobile phones and keys and went to Mr. Han's home when no one was around and began confiscating his family property.

They took his computer, printer, Falun Gong books and photos, as well as all the equipment he needed to successfully run his interior decorating business. The value of the property stolen is in the tens of thousands of yuan¹.

Mr. Han's wife's elder sister happened to drop by Mr. Han's home that day while the police were confiscating everything in sight. When she saw them grab Mr. Han's bankbook, she said, "You are even going to steal the bankbook?!" Only then did the police put the bankbook down.

After Mr. Han practised Falun Gong he got rid of all kinds of bad habits, such as smoking, drinking alcohol and fighting. He is now known as a kind man who is always willing to help others. Because he conducts himself according to Falun Gong's standard of Truth-Compassion-Tolerance, his company is running very smoothly.

Practitioners are wantonly arrested and imprisoned by the Chinese Communist Party under the guise of the "protecting the Olympic Games," causing untold hardships to their family members.

Take for example, Mr. Han's family. His son is very despondent now because his father can not be with him. And Mr. Han's wife--she is now the sole caregiver of their son, and on top of that, she still has to earn a living. This is besides all the sleepless nights and mental turmoil she has to deal with, worrying about her husband's safety.

According to Clearwisdom.net, from May 1st to July 31st, of this year, in the Tangshan area alone, the number of practitioners arrested rose to 98, with another five practitioners being forced into homelessness to avoid arrest. The Olympic Games has not brought a thread of hope or benefit to the common people in China. On the contrary, it has brought countless disasters.
