Ms. Cao Fengying and Others Arrested by CCP Officials from Hebei Province and Subjected to Unlawful Search and Seizure

(Clearwisdon.net) At 4:00 a.m. on April 5, 2007, Jiang Aiguo, division head of the National Security Bureau Wanquan County, and eight other police officers broke into the home of Ms. Cao Fenying and illegally arrested her and her son, Yan Bin, and other practitioners, eight persons in all, when they were practicing the Falun Gong exercises. Ms. Cao, her son, and Ms. Wen Guiyun are still detained.

One older practitioner, in her 70s, lost consciousness instantly in the frightening confusion at Ms. Cao's home. The police kept the other practitioners surrounded until 6:00 a.m. when a police vehicle arrived. The police took all eight practitioners, including Ms. Cao and her son. Two officers remained behind to watch the older lady, who was still unconscious. About 11:00 a.m. police brought in a camcorder and videotaped the Cao home. When no one was at home they took away all her valuables and left nothing behind.

The arrested eight practitioners were: Wen Guiyun, Liu Xiuqin, Chang Jinlan, Yan Bin, Cao Fenying, Wang Yuhua, Shi Yanying and Li Fenglian, most of them new practitioners. Five of them had money extorted from them before they were released. Of the five, three had to pay 3,000 to 4,000 yuan and the other two 5,000 yuan. Ms. Cao and her son, Yan Bin, are still detained, as is Ms. Wen Guiyun.

At 5:00 p.m. that same day, Jiang Aiguo, five officers, and several Public Security personnel from different villages in Wanquan County broke into practitioners Liu Xiuqin and Chang Jinlan's home and confiscated Dafa books, an MP3 player, and other belongings.

At the end of last year, Ms. Cao and her son accompanied the relatives of Wang Guibin, who died as a result of the persecution, to a funeral home. The police from the county National Security Division confiscated Yan Bin's motorcycle and 1300 yuan, the only money that Ms. Cao and her disabled son, Yan Bin, had to live on. To survive, Ms. Cao, despite poor health and risking possible detention, several times went to the National Security Division to ask for the money back, but there was no resolution.

On April 2, 2007, Ms. Cao went to the division again to ask for the return of her money. Police officer Jiang Aiguo said threateningly, "No one else would come here to ask for money back, except you! You put my name on the Internet and wrote a complaint letter about me. I have to do something about you practicing Falun Gong." It seems that this was the impetus for the April 5 arrests.

Among the eight arrested practitioners, most of them were in their 50s, and they had many diseases before practicing Falun Gong. Cultivation made them healthy and energetic. Ms. Cao's son used to be totally deaf and mute. After beginning to practice, he could not only speak some, but also regained some hearing abiility.

The book Journey to the West contains a phrase, "Heaven and earth know everyone's thoughts. Retribution is certain!" This irrational persecution of Falun Gong has not only brought the practitioners great physical and mental anguish, but also brought the evildoers much karmic retribution. People, please wake up and don't wait until retribution catches up with you! By then, any regret will be futile and too late.
