By a practitioner in Mainland China

(Clearwisdom.net)

On March 27, 2005, Mr. Li Yeming, a Falun Gong practitioner who worked at the Engineering Exploration Company of the Design Institute of Shengli Oilfield in Shangdong Province, was arrested and held in the Shengli Oilfield Detention Center. Mr. Li Yeming, emaciated and with a disfigured face, is now near death.

Both Mr. Li Yeming and his wife Qiu Hongmei were Shengli Oilfield employees. After practicing Falun Dafa, they both benefited mentally and physically. They worked conscientiously and had a happy family.

On March 27, 2005, the police from Petroleum University took Mr. Li Yeming from his home and held him at the Shengli Oilfield Detention Center. In detention, Mr. Li Yeming persisted in his belief and refused to bow to the authorities' illegal demands. He went on a hunger strike to protest the violence against innocent Falun Gong practitioners and to defend their basic human rights.

Around April 13, Mr. Li Yeming was transferred to a brainwashing center. To avoid responsibility in the event of Mr. Li's possible death, the Security Section of Petroleum University and the Shengli Oilfield 610 Office conducted the brainwashing at the Oil-Gas Collection and Transportation Company of Shengli Oilfield. Currently, Mr. Li Yeming is being persecuted and is isolated from his family members.

Police officers from the Security Section of Petroleum University arrested Mr. Li Yeming's wife, Qiu Hongmei, on March 25 and illegally detained her in a brainwashing center held in the Materials Supply Section of Shengli Oilfield located on the first floor of the Materials Warehouse Hostel, which was guarded by the police. Her family members were forbidden to see her.

During the same period, practitioner Ms. Li Xuerong was arrested by the police officers from the Binhai Police Station, and also detained in the brainwashing center at the Materials Supply Section of Shengli Oilfield. Ms. Li Xuerong is observing a hunger strike against the illegal detention.

We urgently call on the people of conscience at the Shengli Oilfield to help Mr. Li Yeming and Ms. Li Xuerong and to use every possible means to free them of the persecution and allow them to resume their normal lives.
