The Tongnan County Court Conspires to Put Practitioners On Trial Illegally for a Third Time By a Dafa practitioner in Chongqing
(Clearwisdon.net) Zhang Liang, head of the Chongqing Tongnan County
National Security Brigade, and the Tongnan County Law Court collaborated to
secretly and unlawfully sentence Dafa practitioners Ms. Tan Changrong, Ms. Li
Jianying and Mr. Lu Yuanjian. On the mornings of June 26 and June 29, 2004, the
court convened without informing anyone. The collaborators schemed to put the
practitioners on trial for a third time in a vain attempt to illegally sentence
them. Ms. Tan Changrong is 55 years old and a resident of Tongnan County in the
Taian Township. On October 21, 2003, Ms. Tan was abducted from her retail shop
and taken to the Tianyuanhua Brainwashing Center. She was not even allowed to
lock up her shop when she was dragged away. After December 10, 2003, Luo
Yonghong and Li Hengyi transferred her to the Number Two Police Station. There
she was tortured for over 30 hours. She was kicked and punched, slapped across
the face, not allowed to shut her eyes, forced to stand in one spot for a long
duration, and handcuffed to a window by one arm while her toes barely touched
the ground. She was in this painful position until she fainted. Even after she
was unconscious, she was let down only to be splashed with cold water. After Ms.
Tan came to, the torture continued. Her arms were swollen and numb. Several
months later, her arms were still numb. Ms. Tan is still detained at the police
station. Ms. Li Jianying is 45 years old and a former employee of a pharmaceutical
company. She lived at No. 077, Dapo, Tongnan County. On the night of November 3,
2003, the police, led by Zhang Liang, abducted Ms. Li. She was secretly
transferred to the Number Two Police Station. The police officers of the Special
Investigations Division were instructed to take turns torturing her. She was
deprived of sleep for nine days. She was also handcuffed to the window by one
arm, with her toes barely touching the ground. The pain was excruciating and her
whole body trembled. The handcuff cut deeply into her flesh. Her arms and hands
swelled and with no blood circulation, her hands lost feeling. The police
officers did not stop torturing her until she fainted from the pain and her
wrist was bleeding profusely from the cut by the handcuff. The police released
her from the handcuff and splashed her with cold water. When they saw that she
regained consciousness, they immediately handcuffed her to the window again.
When she lost consciousness, they revived her, splashing her with cold water
once again. The police repeatedly tortured her like this. After a few days, Ms.
Li was transferred to a detention center. She was tortured until she could not
walk. The skin peeled from her arms and the wounds were wide open. At the
detention center, she was taken outside twice while blindfolded. On both
occasions, the Special Investigations Police Officers kicked and punched her,
torturing her for several days and nights until she was near death. Her whole
body was covered with purple and black bruises. The inmates in the prison cell
helped her to a bed to let her lie down. They shed tears when they saw her
condition. The Special Investigations Police Officers inflicted all sorts of
cruel torture on Ms. Li. At present, Ms. Li has again been transferred from the
Maojiashan Female Forced Labor Camp to a detention center. Her hair has turned
gray as a result of the persecution. Mr. Lu Yuanjian is a resident of the Second Division of Shinian Village,
Zitong Township, Tongnan County, Chongqing City. He is 48 years old. Before he
began practicing Falun Gong, he suffered from severe stomachaches and headaches.
He sought all types of treatments for his pain but without success. In May of
1998, Mr. Lu began to practice Falun Gong. After a few days of practicing, all
his illnesses disappeared. Also, before he practiced, he was very irritable and
often quarreled with his neighbors. He loved to drink, cause difficulties for
others, and often abused his wife. After he began to practice Falun Gong, he
strived diligently to live according to "Truthfulness, Compassion, and
Tolerance," and to think of others first. This helped him improve his relations
with his wife and neighbors. Mr. Lu stopped drinking, picking fights with others
and abusing his wife. In the evening of November 3, 2003, Lu Yuanjian was abducted by Zhang Liang
and his subordinates and brought to the Public Security Department. He was then
transferred to the Tongnan Number Two Police Station where he was brutally
tortured in order to force a confession out of him. At the police station, the
police deprived Mr. Lu of sleep for many days in a row; one of his arms was
handcuffed to a window while his toes barely touched the ground, until he
fainted from the excruciating pain. After letting him down and after he
recovered, they again handcuffed him to the window. Whenever he fainted, he was
taken down and splashed with cold water, and then handcuffed after he regained
consciousness. This was repeated several times. He was also kicked and punched,
and his moustache hairs were pulled out one by one. Mr. Lu was later transferred
to the county detention center for further torture. In December, 2003, Zhang Liang sent Mr. Lu to Xishanping, Seventh Brigade,
Second Division. There the prison guards instructed drug addicts to torture him
in many ways. His head was severely wounded and he was sent to the emergency
room for more than ten stitches. Later, his body became extremely weak and he
became emaciated. The police feared for his life and sent Mr. Lu back to the
Tongnan County Detention Center. It was reported that Mr. Lu Yuanjian was very weak when he appeared in court
and he fainted, so the court adjourned. On the second occasion, the
circumstances on his physical condition are not known. Ms. Tan Changrong
shouted, "Falun Dafa Hao!" ("Falun Dafa is great!") in the courtroom. On both occasions, the trial was held in secret and none of the
practitioners' family members were informed of the trial. Mr. Lu's wife, Wen
Ying, enquired at all possible sources about the trial. On July 5, after
enduring many hardships, she managed to find the chief magistrate, Hu Gang and
said: "Lu Yuanjian was formerly not engaged in honest work and used to quarrel
and fight, yet you never bothered with him. Now that he has turned over a new
leaf, striving to become a better person, you start to go after him." Hu Gang
did not say a word. The local Dafa practitioners are now collectively cooperating to find ways to
rescue these detained practitioners. Fellow practitioners are earnestly urged to
verify the facts in connection with these cases and to assist in the rescue
effort. Related phone numbers: National Security Brigade Leader
