State Protection Brigade Officials in Xinji City, Hebei Province, Arrest and Extort Money from Practitioners around the Chinese New Year
By a Falun Dafa disciple from Hebei Province
(Clearwisdom.net) On January 16, 2006, at 11:50 a.m., Police Officer Zhao
from the State Protection Brigade of Xinji City, Hebei Province, and
Deputy-director Ren from Tianjiazhuang Village Police Station hired six to seven
youths to kidnap Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Liu Haiqiang from Dongzhangkou
Village. Police Officer Geng Chao said that if Mr. Liu didn't pay the fine and
write a Repentance Statement, they would send him to the
brainwashing center in Shijiazhuang City, the capital of Hebei Province. When Mr. Liu Haiqiang tried to stop them from ransacking his house, the hired
youths beat him. They forced Mr. Liu into the police vehicle. Someone who knew the police and the youth gang saw what was going on and
demanded to know, "What are you doing?" One of the police officers
said, "It is going to be the Chinese New Year soon. We just want to extort
some money for drinks." When Mr. Liu's brother immediately went to the police station to demand the
release of his brother, Geng Chao threatened, "If you continue to bother
us, I will arrest you, too." The Falun Dafa practitioners in Xinji City are persecuted very severely.
According to available statistics, more than 10 people have been illegally
sentenced, more than 40 people sent to the forced labor camp, more than 200
people taken to brainwashing, and many more people have been forced to pay
"fines." Since the persecution began, Geng Chao, the head of the State
Protection Brigade of Xinji City, has confiscated the homes of practitioners and
robbed and extorted money from them. He has persecuted, arrested, and sent them
to forced labor camps. Many practitioners have become destitute and homeless and
their families torn apart. Many have lost their lives. Telephone Numbers: Area Code 0311 The Main Switchboard of Xinji City Police Bureau: 3221072,3223241,3221203 Unit 2, Building 10, Hengsheng Section, Xinji City, Hebei Province Telephone: 83280196 (home) January 29, 2006
