For Spreading the News of Their Mother's Unjust Death, Two Brothers Suffer Brutal Persecution

(Clearwisdom.net) Xing Defu is 40 years old. He began practicing Falun Dafa in 1996. His mother, also a practitioner, was tortured to death in Wanjia Forced Labor Camp, and he was left with no way to appeal on her behalf. When he told the authorities about his mother's case, he was illegally arrested and is still in detainment experiencing severe persecution today.

After July 20, 1999, in order to stand up for Falun Dafa, he went to Beijing three times to clarify the truth. In December of 1999, he went to Beijing to appeal for Dafa with his mother, wife, and son. The police from the Qianmen Police Station in Beijing arrested his whole family and held them in the basement of Jixi's Liaison Office in Beijing. Xing Defu and his uncle walked out of there that night but were arrested the next day by police officers from the Shunyi County Police Station in Beijing. His brother was secretly transferred back to Mishan and held in the No. 2 Detention Center.

In 2001, when Xing Defu and his brother, Xing Delu, were released from the labor camp, they learned that their mother, Zhang Yulan, had been tortured to death at Wanjia Forced Labor Camp. They had no place to appeal for their mother, so they began to clarify the truth to the local people about their mother's tragic story. Meng Qingqi from the Mishan Public Security Bureau attempted to arrest them, forcing the brothers to abandon their homes and become destitute. Through indecent means, Meng Qingqi deceived Xing Defu's eight-year-old son; convincing him to help them search for his parents, but the search ended up in vain. They did not give up and threatened people who might have known the brothers whereabouts. They finally found Xing Defu and literally dragged him out of his temporary workplace and sent him to Jixi Forced Labor Camp.

In October 2001, officers Meng Qiqi and Liu Qin found Xing Defu's brother, Xing Delu, and sentenced him to seven years in Hada Prison in Jixi City. He was later secretly transferred to Mudanjiang Prison in June 2003.

Xing Defu was "illegally arrested" by the Jidong Public Security Bureau in 2004 while clarifying the truth and was held in Jidong Detention Center. Policemen Ma Li and Pei Jiaxiang brutally beat him many times. They used a plastic tube about one inch in diameter filled with concrete to beat him. Around April 11, 2005 of the lunar calendar, all of the practitioners held there performed Dafa exercises together to celebrate Master's birthday. They were brutally beaten by the police for this peaceful display of courage. They later began a hunger strike to protest the persecution. The police again used a plastic tube filled with concrete to lash practitioner Li Congjun at least two hundred times. He was not able to move for two weeks after the beating and was almost permanently disabled. The police knocked out all of Xing Defu's teeth.

A prison doctor named Li also participated in the persecution numerous times.

In April 2006, Xing Defu was sentenced to three and half years of imprisonment by the Jidong Judicial system and was sent to Mudanjian Prison. The prison secretly moved him to Jiamusi Prison, along with Qu Dehong, Li Congjun, and Liu Haiqiu.
