Relatives Appeal to Government Regarding Police Shooting of Practitioner Jiang Honglu
(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa has been spread widely for ten years. Over
100 million people have benefited in the way of physical health, family harmony
and high morality. Many moving Falun Data- resulted stories are circulated from
person to person that touch people's hearts deeply. It is these truths that the
Chinese dictator's group of political scoundrels has been trying to completely
conceal or deny. During almost three years of persecution against Falun Dafa,
how many Dafa disciples have stepped on the path of Fa-rectification, one after
another, with no fear of death, in order to protect the dignity of Dafa and to
defend the freedom of belief and the basic right to life that the constitution
grants to a citizen? How have the Chinese despot and his followers, ignoring the
constitution, treated the practitioners? It is also the truth of the persecution
against Falun Dafa itself that Jiang's evil regime is trying to conceal and
deny, because the truth itself and the cosmic law,
"Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance," is the last thing they want to
let people know about.
Following are details about a recent shooting incident. Certain practitioners
in China collected this information under the current limited conditions because
the government has issued a tight news blackout.
Just after midnight on the Eve of the Chinese Spring Festival, practitioner
Mr. Jiang Honglu and another fellow practitioner, both from Mishan City,
Heilongjiang Province, were walking on the street, going to hang Dafa banners,
to tell the truth to the deceived people and to expose the evil's lies. When
they walked along the west side of the Industrial and Commercial Bank, they
encountered Meng Qingqi, chief of the Politics and Security Section of Mishan
City Police Department, and Du Yongshan, who were patrolling in a police car.
These officers recognized the practitioners. Seeing the police jump out of the
car, Jiang Honglu didn't want to be arrested and turned around to run. Meng
Qingqi and Du Yongshan immediately opened fire on Jiang. Later on it was
discovered that Meng Qingqi hit Jiang's left leg with one bullet.
The bullet went through Jiang's left leg. The medical records showed the leg
bone had a two inch-long fracture. After Jiang Honglu was shot down, Meng Qingqi
and Du Yongshan pounded him relentlessly. Kicks from their leather boots and
also blows from the handle of the gun rained on Jiang Honglu's head and his body
like a storm. Immediately, Jiang Honglu's head was injured. The beating resulted
in a wound nearly two inches long with blood pouring out in a stream. A taxi
driver witnessed the scene. After the policemen felt too tired to beat Jiang any
longer, they took him to the car and brought him back to the Politics and
Security Section. They didn't send him to the hospital until they conducted a
two-hour-long interrogation. In the hospital, Jiang's head wound required five
stitches. Even under such a cruel persecution, Jiang still didn't forget a
practitioner's mission and clarified the truth to the staff in the hospital and
to the patients.
Jiang Honglu's family didn't know about these occurrences until Minghui Net
reported the case. Personnel from the Politics and Security Section didn't allow
the family to see the practitioner. They even required Jiang's workplace to pay
the bill for the medical expenses. In order to deceive people and to cover up
their crime, they even concocted a lie, saying that more than 40 practitioners
demonstrated on the street at midnight and that a shot was fired to disperse
them.
At the detention center, regardless of the injuries to Jiang's whole body,
personnel from Politics and Security Section still tortured him brutally,
several times beating him to the point of hovering between life and death. When
a relative questioned the Politics and Security Section authorities, "Which
article of the state law has Jiang Honglu violated? What law did you base your
actions on to beat him into such a condition? Who is actually violating the
law?" Du Yongshan, was not able to answer any of these questions. His body
was trembling and he couldn't say a word. Finally he shouted, "Arrest
him!" The other policemen had all been frightened by the Dafa
practitioner's righteous thoughts and no one dared to step forward to carry out
the order. The family members asked the authorities to release Jiang Honglu, but
the Politics and Security Section claimed because Jiang had resisted arrest,
they would send him to a labor camp once they find "evidence."
Ignoring law and order, the police authorities are allowed to open fire
without evidence. The victim was an unarmed practitioner, full of compassion in
his heart and always considerate of others. What kind of instigation and
connivance is the dictator's regime utilizing to have the people who are in
charge of executing the law do such things, superceding law and order and
showing no regard for human life?"
At present, Jiang Honglu's family members have appealed to the city
government, the People's Congress of the city, the city's Politics and Law
Committee and the Public Security Bureau of Mishan City, Heilongjiang Province,
requesting them to punish the criminals Meng Qingqi and Du Yongshan, to
unconditionally release Jiang Honglu and to restore the reputations of Dafa and
Dafa practitioners.
