A Mother is Abducted and Son Expelled from Graduate School for Believing in Falun Dafa

From a source in China

(Clearwisdom.net) Dafa practitioner Ms. Liang Zhu'an is a resident in the Second District of Xuguang Village, Xiliuhe Town, Xiantao City, Hubei Province. At 3:00 p.m. on December 17, 2003, local police unlawfully arrested Ms. Liang. They did not notify her family of the arrest. Her husband returned home at 6:30 P.M. and was informed of what happened by the neighbors who witnessed the arrest. Her husband hurried to the police station, demanding the immediate release of his wife. The police told him that they had already sent her to the city for forced brainwashing.

(We would like to urge Dafa practitioners who hear this news to send forth righteous thoughts to reinforce her righteous thoughts and to eliminate the evil elements in other dimensions. We also urge those Dafa practitioners who live near or in her hometown to clarify the truth about and the persecution against Falun Dafa to the local residents.)

Prior to practicing Falun Dafa, Ms. Liang Zhu'an was a rather frail woman. Since she obtained the Fa in 1997, she improved greatly in mind and body, and has held a steadfast belief in Falun Dafa. She refused to renounce Falun Dafa, and courageously resisted the persecution. She was once illegally detained for five months, from July to December 2001.

Ms. Liang Zhu'an's son, Zhang Jianbo, passed the college entrance exam in 1997 and was admitted to the graduate school of the College of Software Engineering at the Zhejiang University of Technology in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. However, he was diagnosed with a brain tumor in 1998. He was close to accepting the doctor's advice to have the tumor surgically removed when his mother convinced him to start practicing Falun Dafa. After several months of practicing the Falun Dafa exercises, he returned to the hospital for a checkup and discovered that the tumor had disappeared. In 1999, Zhang decided to clarify the truth about the persecution of Falun Dafa and thus traveled to Beijing twice to appeal for Falun Dafa. He was arrested and imprisoned for a year. Then he was sentenced to a four-year prison term in September 2000. At the same time he was expelled from the Zhejiang University of Technology.

After Zhang was released from jail in 2003, he found that the police station in Chaohui Precinct of Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province no longer considered him a legal resident. They told him that he should return to his prior residence since he was no longer a student at the Zhejiang University of Technology. However, the police station in his hometown, Xiantao City Precinct, Hubei Province refused to accept his application for residency. The police station in both precincts refused to let Zhang live in their precinct. Thus, Mr. Zhang Jianbo is still without a legal residency or an identification card. In China, a person without a lawful residency or an identification card ceases to be a Chinese citizen, and becomes an illegal resident. Zhang has turned 30 and wishes to get married. Unfortunately without a legal residence or an identification card he cannot obtain a marriage certificate. Without these two, he has also encountered a tremendous amount of difficulty in finding a job. He has been unemployed and destitute for some time because he was deprived of his basic right to his identity as a Chinese citizen and thus the right to earn a living.
