(Clearwisdom.net) Since May 28, 2007, perpetrators from the Dingxing County Police Department National Security Team and from Dingxing County 610 Office have arrested more than 20 Falun Gong practitioners from almost all of the townships in the county. They still arrest, ransack, fine, and torture practitioners. Several practitioners are being held in a detention center. They were from Yangcun, Beitian, Beihe, Beilian and Zhonglian.

At 8:00 p.m. on July 17, 2007, officers in three police cars broke into the home of practitioner Mr. Wang Defu from Xijiang Village. They arrested his wife Shen Shumei and then found and arrested Wang Defu, who was working in the neighbor's home. Neighbor Xu Jianhua is not a practitioner, but because he spoke up for Wang Defu in front of the police, he was arrested as well.

Prior to beginning Falun Gong practice, Wang Defu was disabled. He had broken six ribs and an arm in an accident and was hospitalized for a long time in Baoding City, Hebei Province. He was unable to take care of himself after he returned home and was also unable to work.

At the recommendation of friends, Wang Defu started practicing Falun Dafa in 1996 and miraculously recovered. Since then he has not needed any state subsidies. He even returned the disability stipends he had received, which allowed somebody who needed it to have a chance.

However, agents from the Dingxing County Police Department National Security Team and from the 610 Office arrested this good person and took him to a detention center, and then proceeded to torture him. They tried to force him to give up his belief in "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance." At present Wang Defu is still being incarcerated at the Dingxing Detention Center and family visits are forbidden.

On July 22, 2007, these same perpetrators arrested practitioner Ms. Han Xuelian and her three family members from Xijiang Village. The police ransacked her home and confiscated her personal computer, printer, satellite dish, and Dafa books. Later on, Han Xuelian's mother-in-law Ren Jinfeng, her husband Lu Tieqiang, and her sister-in-law Lu Wenjie were also locked up in the detention center. Han Xuelian's husband is not a practitioner. Han Xuelian was sent to a forced labor camp a week ago and discovered then she was pregnant. The forced labor camp would not accept her and told the police department to release her.

After the police took her back, they did not let her go home. They used deceitful tricks to secretly abort Han Xuelian's baby. Several days later they again sent her, her husband, and her sister-in-law to Shijiazhuang Forced Labor Camp.
