Practitioner from Jiyuan City, Henan Province Who Had His Esophagus Cut Open to Facilitate Forced-Feeding Is in Critical Condition

By a practitioner from Henan Province

(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Yuan Shengjun from Jiyuan City, Henan Province, was arrested by members of both the 610 Office and the National Security Brigade on March 30, 2005. To protest his unlawful imprisonment, he went on a hunger strike and was subsequently sent to the Jiyuan Number One People's Hospital for an operation on his esophagus that allowed his captors to force-feed him through a tube. Yuan Shengjun has now been on his hunger strike for forty days; his life is in peril.

Reports state that after this barbaric torture was exposed to the outside, lawless police officials transferred Yuan Shengjun to the Tiantan Hospital and strictly blocked any information about him from being released. Family members are currently not even allowed to see him. Under instructions from Wang Mingli, Chief of the National Security Brigade in Jiyuan City, and Wang Guoyou, the brigade's Commissar, Yuan Shengjun was first handcuffed and then strictly monitored by five people.

Mr. Yuan Shengjun held a responsible professional position in Jiyuan City, Henan Province. His health and moral standards had both improved as a result of practicing Falun Dafa. In July 1999, when Jiang Zemin and his regime began to persecute Falun Dafa, Mr. Yuan wanted to speak out on behalf of Falun Dafa. He wrote a public letter to Jiang Zemin in November of 2000 to clarify the truth about Falun Dafa. For this action he was unlawfully sentenced to three years in prison by the Law Enforcement Department, and he was jailed in the Jiyuan Detention Center for the next two years. While imprisoned, Yuan Shengjun was expelled from his public position by the Jiyuan City Government. He was later transferred to the Zhengzhou Jail and was unlawfully imprisoned for one additional year. At the hands of the guards and prison administration, he suffered physical beatings, shocks with an electric baton used to torture prisoners and forced brainwashing; he was released in November of 2003.

At 11:30 a.m. on March 30, 2005, Wang Mingli, Leader of the National Security Brigade of Jiyuan City, Wang Guoyou, the Political Commander and other members of the 610 Office broke into Mr. Yuan Shengjun's home to conduct a surprise search. Even though they did not find any Falun Gong-related materials, they tried to abduct Yuan Shengjun anyway. Mr. Yuan refused to cooperate with their intended arrest, and instead clarified the truth to them about Falun Dafa. Since these police officers were unable to illegally arrest Yuan Shengjun, they called the 110 Police to assist them (calling 110 is similar to calling 911 in the U.S.), and the 110 dispatcher sent four or five more policemen to forcibly abduct Yuan Shengjun. The next day, Mr. Yuan was unlawfully placed in the Jiyuan City Detention Center.

In the detention center, Yuan Shengjun held a hunger strike to resist his unlawful imprisonment. On the eighth day of his incarceration, Yuan Shengjun was sent to the Jiyuan Number One People's Hospital, where he was forced to undergo an operation cutting open his esophagus to facilitate forced-feeding. On the twentieth day of being unlawfully held in jail, his police captors injected him with a sedative that caused him to lose his memory.

Yuan Shengjun's family has not seen him since March 29. They have not been allowed to visit him even once since his illegal arrest by the Jiyuan Public Security Office.

Yuan Shengjun has now been on a hunger strike for almost forty days and is currently in critical condition.
