Persecution of Falun Dafa Practitioners at the North Shengli Street Police Station in Shijiazhuang City

By Dafa Practitioners in Shijiazhuang City

(Clearwisdom Net) Since July 1999, the local police station at North Shengli Street in Shijiazhuang City of Hebei Province have closely followed the directives of Jiang Zemin, the "notorious human rights-violations scoundrel." The authorities at that station undertake all kinds of measures to persecute Falun Dafa practitioners. Some of these take the form of forced interrogation by torture, illegal detention, illegal search and seizure of personal residences, extorting "fines," and so on. This tiny, local police station has illegally sentenced four innocent Dafa practitioners to jail and sent at least two Dafa practitioners to a labor camp, all without due process of law. Below is a partial list of the persecutions Dafa practitioners have suffered:

1. Hao Xiuqin, female, 58 years old, originally from Lingshou County of Hebei Province, currently lives in subdivision 4 of the Chemical Fertilizer Factory's residential area. Shortly after practicing Dafa in 1996, many diseases she had suffered, such as myasthenia gravis and high blood pressure, were completely cured. Beginning on July 20, 1999, the evil forces overwhelmingly persecuted practitioners and slandered Dafa. In order to validate Dafa, she went to Beijing to legally appeal for Falun Gong in October of 1999. After her arrest she was handcuffed to a chair overnight in the local representative's office of Shijiazhuang City in Beijing. Later, officers from the North Shengli Street neighborhood police station detained her for fifteen days.

On February 4, 2000, she was illegally detained for 15 days for the outdoor practice of Falun Gong exercises. To protest her unjust detention, she went on a hunger strike for the fifteen days. As a result, two police officers, one male and one female, kicked and beat her for more than an hour. In addition, her detention period was arbitrarily extended for another 15 days. On May 12, 2000, risking her life, she unfurled a banner that said: "The Fa rectifies the cosmos; the nation will be safe and tranquil" at the Tiananmen Rostrum. After the police violently beat her, they sent her to the Yuanshi County Detention Center and, without any legal procedures, sentenced her to 5 years of unjust punishment in jail.

2. Cao Zengfen, female, 46 years old, is a supervisor of the Shijiazhuang Chemical Fertilizer Factory Hotel. She started practicing Falun Gong in October of 1995. In October of 1999, she went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong and was subsequently illegally detained for 15 days. In May of 2000, without stating any legal grounds, her employer detained her in the factory's guesthouse. Zheng Qihong, the officer in charge of the North Shengli Street police station, along with 6 or 7 other police personnel, removed Cao from the guesthouse and searched her personal residence. She was illegally imprisoned in the Xinle County Detention Center and then sentenced to five years in jail.

3. Xing Guochang, male, over 60 years old, was previously the Party Secretary of the First Division of Shijiazhuang City Motor Company. He was illegally detained for 15 days after a rightful appeal for Falun Gong in October 1999. Because of his firm determination to practice and cultivate Dafa, he was arrested from home, no reason given. Here is what happened: In February of 2000, Hou Yong, the assistant police chief of the North Shengli Street police station, along with people from the Zhengding County police department, came to his home and took him away. After eleven months of illegal detention in the Zhengding County Detention Center, he then was sentenced to five--and-a-half years in jail, all without due process of law.

4. Meng Zhaowen, male, 47 years old, was an employee of the General Overhaul Workshop at Shijiazhuang's Chemical Fertilizer Factory. In July and October of 1999, he was arrested twice directly from home and both times illegally detained for 15 days. On January 28, 2000, Hou Yong, the assistant chief of the local police station and personnel from the Lingshou County police department arrested him at his work place. After being illegally imprisoned in Lingshou County's Detention Center for nearly 1 year, he was illegally sentenced to 3 years in jail.

5. Dang Lanfeng, female, 56 years old, is a retired employee of the Chemical Fertilizer Factory's Hospital, and lives in subdivision 4 of the Chemical Fertilizer Factory's residential area. In order to clarify the truth of Dafa and validate Dafa, she went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong in October of 1999.

On May 13, 2000, she was once more arrested at the Shijiazhuang train station on her way to Beijing, where she wanted to display a banner to clarify and validate Dafa. Due to the beatings at the hands of the officers from the North Shengli Street police station, the right corner of her mouth was torn and swollen, causing her face to be deformed. In July of 2000, she went to Beijing again to unfurl a banner to clarify and validate Dafa. She was arrested yet again and imprisoned at the Shijiazhuang First Detention Center. Later she was sent to a forced labor camp for 3 years.
