Practitioner Yang Aijin from Jinxi Township, Zhongfang County, Hunan Province Is Missing after Suffering Severe Persecution Since 1999
(Clearwisdom.net) Mr. Yang Aijin, 33 years old, is from Jinxi
Township, Zhongfang County, Hunan Province. He had severe epilepsy since
childhood and was cured after he practiced Falun Gong. Because he persisted in
practicing Falun Gong, he was detained and beaten several times by people from
the township government. They also took away his two farm cattle and his
electrical appliances. One time, he was brutally beaten and suffered many
injuries. His blood spurted on the wall and onto the ground. They finally
stopped after many people denounced their savagery. To avoid further
persecution, Yang Aijin had to leave his hometown and work at other places. The
township government authorities and the "610 Office"* personnel from
Zhongfang County tracked him all the way to Hainan, where he labored as a
construction worker. He was arrested. One year has passed and his family has
been trying to find him, but they haven't heard anything about him. Early one morning in September 1999, around 4:00 A.M., Yang Aijin was taken
away from his home by Yang Siqing, Xie Yuyou, Yang Weiping, Wei Shanxiang and
others from the township government. He was detained for 15 days at the
Zhongfang County Detention Center. The stress triggered a return of his epilepsy
and since then, he would suffer seizures three or five times per month. In November 1999, Yang Aijin went to Beijing to appeal for Dafa. At Tiananmen
Square, when he admitted he was a Falun Dafa practitioner, he was pushed down to
the ground and kicked furiously by the armed police. Later he was handcuffed and
taken back by Xiao Longcai from the Zhongfan County Police Department and by
Yang Siqing from the township government. He was detained at the county
detention center for 15 days. When Yang Siqing tried to force him to sign a
statement to not practice Falun Gong or appeal, he wrote down, "Falun Dafa
is good," which caused him to be detained another ten days at the township
government. In March 2000, without any legal documentation, Li Renan and Liu Xiaoping
from the "610 Office" in Zhongfang County, Xie Yuyou and Tan Jinrong
from the township government came to his home and arrested him again. He was
detained for 15 days. He had two epileptic seizures during that period. In April 2000, during the busy farming season, he was arrested again and
detained at the township government. Yang Aijin held a three-day hunger strike
to protest the illegal detention. In May 2000, Yang Siqing, Chen Kefei, Xie Yuyou and others forcibly searched
practitioners' homes. They took away their furniture, farm machinery, farm
cattle and Dafa materials. Just from Yang Aijin's home alone, they took away his
two cattle, one TV set and two tape players with a total value of about 3,000
Yuan**. Just for wanting to have a healthy body and be a good person according to the
principles of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance," Yang Aijin was
often harassed. On May 13, 2000, Yang Aijin and his mother decided to go to Beijing again to
appeal for Dafa. Because of his health they turned back half way there. The
township government learned about this. On June 6 2000, five people, including
Yang Siqing and Xie Yuyou drove a tractor to his home and tried to arrest him.
Yang Aijin did not cooperate with them and was dragged to the tractor by his
feet. The villagers stood up and tried to stop them, "Yang Aijin is not
well. His life could be in danger if you treat him in such a way." Xie
Yuyou called loudly, "I will take responsibility if he dies." One
villager said, "Write down what you say then." Others all agreed to
have a written guarantee that the persecutors would assume responsibility for
Yang Aijin's fate. Late at night, the villains finally gave up their attempt and
left. Around 9:00 A.M. the next day, seven people, including Wei Shanxiang and Yang
Licheng, came to arrest him again. Yang Aijin was detained at the township
government for 25 days this time. Yang's parents were disabled. His father had
been paralyzed for over thirty years. Their farm production was mainly dependent
on Yang Aijin. His several arrests and detentions had severely impacted his
family. In November 2000, nine thugs, including Yang Siqing and Chen Kefei rushed
into Yang's home and brutally beat him in the kitchen. Yang's family tried to
stop them but failed. One hour later, when Yang got rid of them and went out,
they caught him again and continued to beat him at the side of the road. Two
held his feet, two held his hands; others pushed him on the ground to beat him.
Yang Aijin suffered many injuries and bled severely. The blood spurted on the
ground and on the wall, and on Liao Hairong's clothes. With the shouts from his
family and the onlookers, "The cadres of the government are beating a
person! They have injured a person!" Many additional villagers arrived.
Finally, they didn't take away the injured Yang Aijin, but his mother and three
other practitioners in the village were detained by the township government for
11 days. On August 23, 2001, when Yang Aijin and another practitioner went to
neighboring Wanxi Township to distribute Dafa truth-clarifying information,
someone tempted by financial incentives reported them. The township government
would give 500 Yuan to anyone who reported a practitioner. They were arrested
and handcuffed to the basketball goal on the sports field of a middle school in
Wanxi Township. More than ten people took turns brutally beating Yang Aijin and
the other practitioner for over an hour. Then they were handcuffed above their
heads onto the pole, with their feet not touching the ground. They suffered
repeated beating and being hung up until they lost consciousness. Later they
were sent to Baihunao Detention Center in Anjiang Town, Hongjiang City and
detained for 27 days. Dafa practitioner Mr. Yang was released after paying a
"fine" of more than 10,000 Yuan. To avoid further persecution, Yang Aijin left home and went to Hainan
Province. Two days later, Chen Kefei from Jinxi Township and Yang Changgou from
the "610 Office" in Zhongfang County tracked him down and went to
Hainan Province as well. They collaborated with the local police station,
Baofang Police Station, Wenchang City, Hainan Province to monitor Yang Aijin. At
7:30 A.M. on September 6, 2002, Yang Aijin was reported to be practicing the
Dafa exercises and was arrested by Yun Changgui from the Baofang Police Station.
He was later handed over to people from the Police Department in Wenchang City.
Yang's family had gone there many times to look for him but didn't know where he
was. They were admonished and threatened by assistant police chief Lin Mingqun.
