• Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) 610 Office Operates above the Law

  2011-08-15
  One day in 2006, police broke into my house and ransacked it. They told my wife, “You have to come with us.” She asked, “Where are we going?” They replied, “To the police station.” They then forced us to go with them. I was taken to the 610 Office (an organisation of special agents just for persecuting Falun Gong). One police officer asked, “Have you participated in any gatherings?” I said no. Then they sent me to a detention centre. After I was held for more than twenty days, the 610 Office agent told me, “You are being sent to a forced labour camp.” I asked, “Why? What evidence do you have that convicts me? On what legal basis do you send me there?” He would not answer my question directly but just sternly said, “Even if you do not say anything, we will still sentence you.”
