Practitioner Ms. Song Huijuan from Yanqing County Arrested

(Clearwisdom.net) On the morning of May 26, 2007, Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Song Huijuan, 43, from South Vegetable Garden of Yanqing County, Beijing, was arrested and her home was searched.

In the past month, many practitioners in Yanqing County have been arrested, persecuted, and detained. These practitioners include Ms. Fang Jinzhi, who lost her job as a worker at the original Sixth Factory; Ms. Chen Zhonglian of Little Creek Village; Ms. Sun Shufeng of Si Jiaying Village; Ms. Li Ruihua and Mr. Shi Yinjie from the West Village; and others.

On May 18, 2007, the Court of Yanqing County (under the control of the Chinese Communist Party) sentenced practitioner Mr. Shi Yinjie to six years in prison in a secret trial, in which the court fabricated evidence and restricted Mr. Shi's right to an attorney. Before the decision, to keep the truth from Mr. Shi's family, the court made a false report to the family, stating that the case had been sent to the High Court for trial. Consequently, the family was unaware of the trial until the public announcement on May 19. After the decision, Mr. Shi refused to accept the sentence and was preparing to appeal.

On May 15, 2007, practitioner Ms. Wang Yanfang from Xiangyin Township was arrested again. On May 16, she was taken to the Mental Health Care Hospital of Yanqing County to be tortured. In April, when Ms. Wang was clarifying the truth, she was followed by public security personnel, who reported her to the authorities. She was arrested. Her legs were injured by the police so severely that she could not walk for several days.

On the evening of May 17, Ms. Wang Shuping, a doctor at the Women and Children's Health Care Hospital of Yanqing County, clarified the truth in front of Yanqing First Middle School. She was arrested after she was noticed by security. Because she had extremely high blood pressure, she was released.

A few days ago, the residences of practitioners Ms. Guo Chunxian and Ms. Xu Ruier from the West Village were searched by local police.
