(Clearwisdom.net) On January 8, 2006, Qu Yonghua, Sun Shuangrong, and Li Wanyue from Xinhua Town, Acheng City of Heilongjiang Province, were distributing Falun Dafa truth-clarification materials in Yongyuan Town. They were reported to the authorities, illegally arrested and taken to the Yongyuan Town Police Station. They have been detained ever since.

Mr. Qu Yonghua, from Xiucai Village in Xinhua Town of Acheng City, is 53 years old. He learned about Falun Dafa in 1996 and started practicing in July 1998. Before he started practicing, he had many bad habits including being addicted to alcohol and abusing his wife. Since practicing Falun Dafa, Qu Yonghua has turned around completely, becoming a person who considers other people first wherever he goes. He was imprisoned four times for practicing Falun Gong.

In November 2000, Qu Yonghua went to Beijing to appeal for justice for Falun Dafa. He was arrested and held in the Acheng City detention center for two months. His family members had to pay over 3,000 yuan to get him released. In February 2001, Mr. Qu was taken to the brainwashing center in the Yagou Town military compound. At the end of September 2004, when Qu Yonghua was harvesting at his farm, officers from the Acheng City 610 Office and police from the Xinhua Police Station arrested him and sent him to the brainwashing center in Acheng.

Ms. Sun Shuangrong from Xiucai Village in Xinhua Town, Acheng City, started practicing Falun Dafa in 1998. Before she started practicing, Sun Shuangrong had serious gastric problems and her left leg was disabled. Her legs bent inward and she had difficulty walking. She could not do heavy labor and took medicine all year long. After practicing Falun Dafa, all her diseases were cured without taking medicine. She frequently told the local people about the changes that Falun Gong brought to her, and hoped that people would treat Falun Dafa and Falun Dafa disciples kindly.

Li Wanyue from Hejia Village in Xinhua Town, Acheng City, started practicing Falun Dafa in 1998 and benefited both physically and mentally. Li Wanyue went to Beijing in 2000 to appeal for Falun Gong and was illegally imprisoned by Beijing police. Later, Mr. Li was sent back to the Xinhua Town police station and was held at the Acheng City detention center. Li Wanyue's family members had to pay over 8,000 yuan to get him released.
