A Falun Dafa Practitioner Exposes the Relentless Persecution by the 610 Office in Qian'an County, Jilin Province

By a Falun Dafa practitioner in China

(Clearwisdom.net) I am a female Falun Dafa practitioner in Qian'an County, Jilin Province. I began the practice of Falun Dafa in 1996. Since then, I have been free of illness. I also changed from being a person who only cared about myself, to a kindhearted person who always thinks of others. Falun Dafa teaches high moral principles, which helps people to raise their moral standards and improve their mental and physical well-being.

However, since I refused to give up practicing Falun Dafa after the persecution started on July 20, 1999, the Qian'an County 610 Office illegally put me in the Heizuizi Forced Labor Camp four times. Finally, I had to leave my home and become homeless to evade the relentless persecution.

As I persisted in the practice, Police Officer Jiang Yunlong from the Dabusu Police Station in Qian'an County illegally arrested me and took me to the Qian'an County Detention Center on March 12, 2001. I was sentenced to one year of imprisonment in the forced labor camp. I was unable to study the Fa well and had a lot of fear under such circumstances. I was forced to write a so-called Guarantee Statement in the forced labor camp. This made me very upset, as I felt that there was nothing wrong in following the principles taught by Teacher Li and striving to be a good person. When I wrote the Guarantee Statement to renounce Falun Dafa, wasn't I acknowledging that it was wrong to be a good person? How could this be true? How could I disappoint Teacher who had mercifully saved me? I wanted to stand up for justice for Teacher Li and Falun Dafa. I knew it was wrong to write such a statement, so I immediately wrote a "Solemn Declaration" and submitted it to the guard.

I was released after the illegal imprisonment in the forced labor camp came to an end. Ten days later, on March 2, 2002, Police Officer Li Dongyang led a group of people from the Dabusu Police Station in Qian'an County to my house. He lied to me, saying that every Falun Gong practitioner had to go through some formalities at the local police station and said that I would be able to go back home right away. However, they took me directly to the Qian'an County Detention Center after I got into their car. I refused to give up Falun Gong, and was illegally sentenced to two years of imprisonment in the forced labor camp.

I was released after completing the two-year term. Three months later, the vicious police captain in Qian'an County led a gang of police officers to break into my house and forcefully take me away. I refused to cooperate. The captain shouted, "Drag her away! No matter whatever happens, I will take care of it." They dragged me from my house to the car for a few dozen yards. My underwear tore as a result, my shoes fell off, and small stones collected in my pants along the way. In the detention center, I started a hunger strike to protest against the illegal detention. Three weeks later, they sent me to the Heizuizi Forced Labor Camp in Changchun City. The labor camp refused to admit me after the health examination. The police from the 610 Office in Qian'an County begged the doctor in the labor camp, "We both come from Qian'an County. Please consider this and admit her. Before we left Qian'an County, the director repeatedly told us to make sure to leave her here and not bring her back." The doctor said, "She had already been here for several years. She refused to do forced labor, and wasn't "transformed". No, we are not admitting her." They tried every trick possible, but the labor camp refused to accept me. Finally, the police had to bring me back and release me.

On July 12, 2004, the captain of the criminal police in Qian'an County led four or five police officers to break into my house again and arrest me by force. My mother, who was in her 80s, was scared stiff. My 5-year-old granddaughter, who had a high fever at that time, was so scared that she grabbed onto me and cried. However, the merciless police officers didn't care at all. They brazenly dragged me to their car and sent me directly to the Heizuizi Forced Labor Camp in Changchun. This was the fourth time I was illegally sent to the Heizuizi Forced Labor Camp.

In the forced labor camp, I again held a hunger strike to protest against the unreasonable persecution. Later, I was able to leave the labor camp with Teacher's help. However, the police kept harassing me at my home. I was forced to leave my home and become homeless as a result of the relentless persecution. However, no matter where I am, I will follow Teacher's guidance to do the three things well, and walk my path well.
