Police in Heilongjiang Province Resist Orders From Above
(Clearwisdom.net) Around September 20, 2005, leaders of the police departments and state
security departments from across Heilongjiang Province gathered in Harbin to
plan a campaign to arrest Falun Dafa practitioners across the province. Harbin,
Daqing and some other cities were on the top of the list to target for the
arrests. The provincial police department issued a list of practitioners to
various regions, instructing them to arrest those on the list prior to the
October 1 National Day. The entire police force in some areas was ordered to
gather in the police dining halls. After eating, the officers were dispatched to
work around the clock, mostly at night, to stake out the targeted practitioners
and "arrest" them. This act of terror has been resisted in some areas. Rank and file police in
Harbin, Daqing and some other areas complained openly. One police chief said,
"Aren't they running out of things to do? Why arrest those who practice
Falun Gong?" One residential police officer condemned, "What's this
arrest targeting Falun Gong about? What good does it serve?" Provincial police leaders are worried about the sympathy for Falun Gong among
their subordinates. They have ordered police departments to make no decisions on
the fate of arrested practitioners. Every day, the local police departments have
to file a report to the higher authorities detailing their daily progress in the
persecution. No decisions are to be made by the local police. We hope our fellow practitioners in various regions will keep up their
rationality and wisdom, and not be moved by the atmosphere of evil. We walk the
path of cultivation. If there is a problem, let's not treat it with human
mindsets. We should keep up righteous thoughts, calm down to study the Fa and
look inside ourselves unconditionally. Teacher has taught us time and time again
that we should study the Fa, study the Fa, and study the Fa. We have to pay
attention to studying the Fa, as we are the safest when we stay within the Fa. September 28, 2005
