At around 4 p.m. on July 6th, 2009, police from the Bayuquan District Domestic Security Division broke into practitioner Ms. Ning Li's home in Xiongyue Town. They then took her to the Bayuquan Domestic Security Division.
Afterwards, someone revealed that Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leader Xi Jinping was scheduled to visit the region to do inspections on the morning of July 7th, 2009. Everywhere he went, the security was heightened. No person or car was allowed to pass. Practitioners living near the streets where Xi went by were arrested. Guotun Village, Xiongyue Town, where Ms. Ning lived, was one of the inspection sites.
In the afternoon on July 6th, 2009, the police began to clear the roads and continued until the morning of July 7th, 2009. The entire Xiongyue region was in a state of heightened security. There were police present at every intersection, especially the area surrounding Guotun Village. Every intersection was closed to cars and pedestrians. Regular and plain clothes officers were everywhere. According to sources, plain clothes officers from the Domestic Security Division were already performing "security defence" work in Guotun Village a month ago.
At around 7 p.m. on the night of the arrest, staff from the Bayuquan Domestic Security Division called Ms. Ning's home twice and told family members to bring money. Family members heard Ms. Ning saying, "We have no money."
Ms. Ning Li's family went to the division at around 9 p.m., but they had already left work. The gate guard told them that Ms. Ning was being detained at the Bayuquan Detention Centre. The family went there, but the detention centre authorities said that they did not have a jail for women. Ms. Ning was transferred to the Yingkou City Detention Centre at around 7 p.m. that night.
Since the persecution of Falun Gong began in 1999, the Bayuquan Domestic Security Division has extorted countless amounts of money from practitioners' family members, ranging from several thousand to tens of thousands of yuan1. After they took the money, they would released the practitioner. If there was no or insufficient payment, then the practitioner would be sentenced.
In the morning on July 7th, 2009, the family arrived at the Yingkou City Detention Centre and asked to see Ms. Ning. The detention centre guard asked for money, but the family members refused to pay. When they eventually saw Ms. Ning and asked her what had happened, she said that the police had arrived at her home and found a CD when they went inside. The police told her to come with them in order to discuss the situation. This is how Ms. Ning was arrested. When the family heard this, they requested her release, but the guards refused. The guards told the family to ask for her release at the Bayuquan Domestic Security Division.
The following people are known to have participated in the persecution. Practitioners are requested to supplement the missing information.
Bayuquan Domestic Security Division: 86-417-6217505
Wang Hongkui, Captain of the Bayuquan Domestic Security Division: 86-13841755119 (Mobile)
