(Clearwisdom.net) CCP authorities in Baoding City, Hebei Province are plotting to hold an illegal trial of Dafa practitioners Wei Haiwu, Liu Yongwang, Zhang Rongjie and Zhi Zhanmin at the Baoding City Xinshi District's Court at 8:30 a.m. on Friday, February 17. These Dafa practitioners were arrested last August on the grounds of the TV interception incident in Tianjin. Amongst these practitioners, Liu Yongwang has been persecuted most brutally and is currently on the brink of death.

In early August 2005, CCP officials began suspecting that Baoding Dafa practitioners were involved in the Tianjin TV interception incident and set-up a "Special Case Group" in Baoding City. At around 9 a.m. on August 7, Dafa practitioner Yang Jinying from the east suburban region in Baoding City was arrested on the road by agents from Baoding City's National Security Bureau. At around 1 a.m. on August 8, Zhi Zhanmin, Wei Haiwu and several other Dafa practitioners were also arrested in between Baoding City and Mancheng by agents of the Baoding City National Security Bureau. Dafa practitioner Liu Yongwang was arrested thereafter on August 24.

To date, several practitioners are being illegally imprisoned in the Baoding City Detention Centre and are being subjected to severe physical interrogation as well as torture. They have been on hunger strike to protest the persecution. Dafa practitioner Wei Haiwu's has been suffering from high blood pressure. Yang Jinying managed to walk out of the hospital recently with strong righteous thoughts. Dafa disciple Liu Yongwang has persevered in denying the false charges brought against him and has been on a hunger strike for more than seventy days since he was arrested. His body has deteriorated severely, and he has become emaciated. Both his legs still have not recovered from the torture he received previously while imprisoned in a labor camp, and they constantly turn numb and are painful. Under the request of his family members, he was brought to the Baoding City Second Hospital for a checkup, and was diagnosed with a tumor at the bottom of the spinal region. He could become paralyzed from the waist down any moment.
