Longkou "610 Office" Arrests Elderly Practitioners Mr. Wang Mingli and His Wife Mrs. Shi Fengzhi and Tries to Illegally Sentence Them (Clearwisdom.net) Dafa practitioners Mr. Wang Mingli and his wife Ms. Shi Fengzhi of
Longkuo City, Shandong Province are both 60-some years old. Because of their firm belief in
"Truthfulness -- Compassion -- Forbearance" Mr. and Mrs. Wang had been illegally taken
into custody many times. They were also illegally detained when they went to Beijing to appeal for
Falun Gong. To avoid harassment and persecution by the local police and the "610 Office" [an
agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of
administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems.], the couple have had
to leave their home and remain without a fixed address since the summer of 2002. Around May 10, 2003, the "610 Office" of Longkou city's Public Security Bureau arrested
Mr. Wang and his wife Ms. Shi. Their Dafa books, truth-clarifying materials, and audio recording
equipment were confiscated. Because of their being firm Dafa practitioners, Longkou city authorities
illegally sentenced the couple to severe terms. After them, other local practitioners Ms. Qu Cuihong
and Ms. Han Xia were also arrested by the Longkuo Public Security Bureau. After being crudely
tortured, both of them were illegally sent to a forced labor camp between June and July for 3 years
of forced labor. Posting date: 9/16/2003 |
