(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa practitioner Zhou Huimin (female, forty years old) went to Beijing to appeal in December 1999. The police arrested and sent her to the Nanmusi Female Forced Labor Camp, Zizhong County, Sichuan Province, where she was sentenced to one year and was actually detained for a year and half. In the forced labor camp, she maintained her faith in Falun Dafa. Thus, the police beat her, shocked her with electric batons, forced her to stand still for long periods of time, and physically abused her in other ways. However, all of these tortures couldn't shake her belief in Falun Dafa. In June 2000, she left the forced labor camp with dignity.

In October 2001, when practicing exercises outdoors, Zhou Huimin and another three fellow practitioners were arrested by the police from the Xiyuhe Police Station in Chengdu City. After being sent to the Longquanyi Detention Center, they firmly resisted the unreasonable demands by the police. To validate Falun Dafa, they continued to practice the exercises and send forth righteous thoughts. The police dragged them one by one out to the courtyard and beat them badly until they were unconscious. Then the police poured cold water on their bodies to wake them up and dragged them back to their cells, where with wet clothes on, they were bound together by handcuffs and fetters. The police even made them suffer a torture called "Dragon Holding onto the Pillar" for one month, but the practitioners' firm righteous minds terrified their tormentors. Their righteous actions also moved and inspired other fellow practitioners in jail. Zhou Huimin went on a hunger strike to protest the illegal detention. Disregarding her extremely poor health after one month's hunger strike, the Xiyuhe Police Station sent her to the Nanmusi Female Forced Labor Camp for a second time. She continued her hunger strike to protest the imprisonment and gain her freedom. The prison doctors force-fed her so fiercely that the feeding tube poked a hole in her stomach and caused internal bleeding. Due to her shrinking blood vessel, the needle couldn't be inserted. Afraid that she might die in custody, the authorities of the forced labor camp had to release her on medical parole.

In September 2002, the plainclothes police abducted Zhou Huimin on the street as she was spreading truth-telling VCDs to clarify the true facts about Falun Dafa. It has been a month since Zhou Huimin went on a hunger strike once more to protest the illegal arrest. She is on the verge of death.

Zhou Huimin is detained in a separate cell in the Chinese Traditional Medical Hospital in Jianyang City. The perpetrators fastened her to a bed with handcuffs and fetters to immobilize her. The staff from the Jiancheng Town Hall and the plainclothes officers from the Chengzhong Police Station in Jianyang City are keeping her under close watch twenty-four hours a day. They don't allow her family members or anyone else to visit her so as to block the information about her critical situation.

We are asking compassionate people for help to end the persecution of Falun Dafa by Jiang's regime. Please help the innocent Falun Dafa practitioners! Please help our fellow practitioner Zhou Huimin!
