Case Two: Yao Hexing, male, 25, Anqiu City, Shandong Province

On October 10, 1999, Yao Hexing went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong. He was detained for 30 days by the police. During the time he was being detained, he was tied up with ropes for 22 hours. Because the ropes were tied on too tight and for too long, the blood could not flow, and necrosis of the flesh began and he had to be taken in for an operation on his skin. On June 3, 2000, he was arrested again for going to Beijing to appeal, and was detained for another 30 days. For a long time, his personal freedom was restricted by the public security supervisor at his work unit.

In addition, at the beginning of August, 2000, in order to carry out the order from their superior, the party officials at every level in Weifang City had conversations with party members who continued to practice Falun Dafa. They gave the practitioners two options. The first option was asking them to voluntarily resign from the party, and the second was making them being expelled from the party. They were forced to make a decision in a short period of time. Most Falun Dafa practitioners said they would not voluntarily resign from the party and stated: Cultivators are the ones who follow the teachings of Mr. Li Hongzhi and follow the characteristics of universe Zhen-Shan-Ren (Truth-Benevolence-Forbearance) for making requirements for themselves. Everywhere they go their actions represent that of high standards. Because of this, those Falun Gong practitioners from the party were expelled from the party the next day.
