Practitioner Ms. Zhang Xinyi from Changsha City Has Been on Hunger Strike for One Month

(Clearwisdom.net)

On April 28, 2005, Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Zhang Xinyi from the Tianxin District in Changsha City, Hunan Province, was again taken away by police from her home and imprisoned in Changqiao, the Changsha City detention center. She has been hunger striking to protest the persecution since May 20.

Changsha Detention Center officials and others who handled the case have reportedly prevented Ms. Zhang's relatives and friends from visiting her. They claim that she "resists transformation stubbornly" and "is incurable," so they have to brainwash her.

Ms. Zhang Xinyi and her husband Li Guojun were refugees awaiting authorization for asylum from the Cambodian United Nations Refugee Committee. On August 2, 2002, the Chinese Communist Party colluded with the Cambodian government to arrest them from their residence in Jinbian and repatriated them to China. As soon as they returned to China, they were imprisoned in a detention center. Because international human rights organizations and righteous people all around the world have been watching Ms. Zhang, the Communist Party did not kill her, but she has been subjected to continued detention.

We again appeal to the United Nations Human Rights Committee and the Refugee Head Office to rescue Ms. Zhang Xinyi. Please go to the Changsha City Detention Center, East No. 1, prison cell four, Hunan Province, to learn about Ms. Zhang Xinyi's situation.
