Seventeen Falun Gong Practitioners from Deyang City Tricked and Arrested by 610 Office Personnel in Sichuan Province

The 610 Office (an organisation of special agents just for persecuting Falun Gong) of Deyang City ordered the cancellation of the March 7th Luojiang County Court trial for Falun Gong practitioners, Mr. Ye Qibing, Mr. Liu Ping, Ms. Qiu Juyuan, and Ms. Qiu Yuqiong. Many Falun Gong practitioners did not know this, and went to the court as visitors to attend the trial. Seventeen of them were arrested.

Mr. Ye Qibing and three other practitioners from Shuanglin Village, Yuanjiazhen Town, Jingyang District, Deyang City, were arrested and taken to Luojiang County Detention Centre on October 7th, 2010, after they distributed leaflets exposing the persecution of Falun Gong at a junction between the towns of Luoping and Guangfu. On February 17th, a court trial summons was sent to Mr. Ye Qibin and the other practitioners. The summons, from the Luojiang Court, announced a trial for the four practitioners set for 9:30 a.m. on March 7th. However, on March 5th, the trial was cancelled, yet many practitioners from surrounding counties went to Luojiang Court on March 7th, and seventeen were arrested.

The practitioners arrested were from Guanghan city, Ms. Zhang Li, and Mr. Shi Youqun, from the vegetable shop in Luocheng Town; Mr. Xie Jiuhui of Beiwai Brigade 6; Ms. Zhao Yanzhen of Brigade 5, in Xigao Town; Ms. Xiao Kaiping, Ms. Zhang Erxiu, Ms. Zeng Yunfeng, and Ms. Cai Huayu of Xinglong Town; and five other practitioners from Sanshui Town, Guanghan. Ms. Jiang Zeying and Ms. Feng Yingxiu of Shuimo Village, Gaoping Town; Ms. Deng (in her seventies) from Bajiao Town, Deyang, and one other without name and address.

The arrested practitioners were taken to Guanghan City Detention Centre that night. Meanwhile, the police ransacked their homes.
