Ms. Li Zhongming from Gaoba, Luzhou was arrested at her home on July 15th, by Longmatan 610 Office (an organisation of special agents just for persecuting Falun Gong) agents, Gaoba Police Station officers, and Community Office staff. Ms. Li shouted, “Falun Gong is good!” “Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good!” Several people gathered to see what was happening, and observed the officials injecting something into Ms. Li's arm. Ms. Li was immediately rendered unable to speak. Her mouth and tongue became stiff and saliva constantly dripped from her mouth.

When Ms. Li started practising Falun Gong, she benefited greatly from the practice. Her health improved and she developed benevolence. However, six months later, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started persecuting Falun Gong. Ms. Li maintained a strong belief that the practice is good, and Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance is good, so she was steadfast in her Falun Gong practice. As a result, she has been persecuted during the past twelve years by the CCP regime.

Ms. Li has previously been arrested on several occasions and also had her home ransacked. She was forced to relocate in order to avoid additional persecution. She was put into forced labour camps twice, and was subjected to severe torture. Guards and inmates beat her, made her stand for extended periods, handcuffed her, deprived her of sleep, smeared balm in her eyes, denied her toilet use, starved her, and forced her to do hard labour.

Three Longmatan District Court officers in Luzhou forced Ms. Li into a car at around 9:00 a.m. on August 3rd, 2010, and then took her to the Longmatan District Court to stand trial.

Mr. Li is currently being held at the Naxi Detention Centre of Luzhou.
