Dafa Practitioners Were Violently Beaten by Policemen from the Gangtun Town Police Station, Huludao City, Liaoning Province
(Clearwisdom.net) At 8pm, April 14, 2002, Gangtun Town Police Station
Director Wang Aimin and Political Instructor Wang Ying led 5 or 6 policemen to
break into Dafa practitioner Zhang Enxing's house unexpectedly. Two of the
policemen grabbed Zhang and started to drag him out of the house. Zhang passed
out right on the spot because of a seizure. They had to put Zhang on a bed and
left three policemen to watch him. They were waiting for Zhang to wake up so
they could take him away. Zhang woke up at 2am. When he saw that all the guards
had fallen asleep, he left the house. When the policemen found that Zhang had left, they immediate took Zhang's
wife, Li Xianglan (also a Dafa practitioner, 52 years old) into the police car.
They questioned her about Zhang's whereabouts while constantly kicking, punching
and cursing her. They drove to an isolated place and pushed her out of the car
and forcibly pressed her to the ground. Three to four policemen beat her with
their feet and fists. When they were tired, they dragged her into the car and
drove to the Zhangjiagou Village Office to continue the brutal beating. The
village head just stood there watching. One policeman seized a one-foot long
abacus and hit Li's arm and hands without restraint and did not stop even when
the abacus was broken to pieces. He grabbed another abacus and continued the
beating. Li's hands were terribly swollen and one of her fingers was cut with a
one-inch long slash, blood was all over her hands. Eventually, the 2nd
abacus was broken as well. The other policemen grabbed her hair, slapped her
face and kicked her breasts, arm and other parts of her body. Then they threw
her into the car and beat her continuously inside the car until the car arrived
back at her house. They got out of the car and gave Li's son-in-law (who does
not practice Falun Gong) a fierce beating. After that, they drove Li's
son-in-law and Li to Gangtun Police Station where Wang Zhanjie questioned them.
The other policemen kept beating Li violently during the questioning. They used
a flashlight to hit Li's head, and they punched her with their fists and kicked
her with their feet. In the end, Li's son-in-law had to promise that he would
find his father-in-law within 15 days. If he failed, he would be detained. Then,
the policemen finally stopped torturing Li. The next morning at 8am, April 15,
the police released them. The son-in-law's back was very painful and sore for
several days. Li Xianglan was injured more seriously. Her ears and left arm were
black and blue. Her body displayed wounds everywhere. She dared not even turn on
her back when she was sleeping. For several days, she could not do any
housework. Zhang Enxing, avoiding arrest, hid on the mountain for three days and nights
without anything to eat or drink. Then, he went down the mountain and stayed at
a relative's house for a night. However, someone reported him to the police
station. Zhang had to hide on the mountain again. Police searched the mountain
for the following two nights. Over ten people searched everywhere with
flashlights. Zhang had no choice but to hide in a valley for two nights.
Although exhausted, Zhang later walked out of the valley. He took a bus on a big
road and escaped successfully. Currently, Zhang moves from place to place to
avoid illegal arrest. Gangtun Police Station Phone #: 86-429-4131376
