Falun Gong Practitioners Arrested by Police from Jiamusi Railroad Police Station
(Clearwisdom.net) Falun Gong practitioner Mr. Meng Xianjie from Qianjin
Towship, Jiansanjiang in Jiamusi is being detained at the Jiamushi
Railroad Police Station. His sister, Meng Xianying went with a friend to
Jiamushi Railroad Police Station to ask about him, but the police tried to
arrest her too. While resisting the illegal arrest her back was
sprained and she lost consciousness. The Jiamushi Railroad police took her to
the Railroad Hospital and left quickly to avoid responsibility. With help from
some kind hearted people, Meng Xianying was able to return home after the
injury. Mr. Meng Xianjie was arrested by police from Jiamushi Railroad Police Station
at around 2:00 p.m. On June 23, 2008, when he was at home. According to a
witness, about ten policemen and two police vehicles were involved in the
arrest. The group was led by police officers Xu Xingyong and Sun Baoshan. Police
officers from Qianjin Township denied that they had anything to do with the
arrests, and that police from Jiamushi Railroad Police Station just mentioned it
to them and started arresting people. Falun Gong practitioner Wenying's husband went to the Jiamushi Railroad
Police Station to request the release of his wife, and also wrote a public
letter. After reading his letter, the police asked him if he was also a Falun
Gong practitioner and about his attitude regarding his wife's practicing Falun
Gong. The husband responded, "I don't care what type of qigong she is
practicing. I just know that she became healthier after practicing and she
treats me better. She is even nicer to my mom, so I support her. I love my wife.
We have three elderly people at home who need her care. What is your reason for
arresting her? Because you arrested her, the elderly people's health is getting
worse." The police officers from the station said, "We can arrest you
because of your letter." They then took Falun Gong teacher Li Hongzhi's
picture and forced the husband to curse at it. Wenying's husband said, "Why
should I curse people?" After a whole morning's confrontation, he was still
prohibited from seeing his wife, and later he returned home. Falun Gong practitioner Wu Qilian's father and mother went to Jiamushi
Railroad Police Station many times. The father told the police about the mental
and physical improvements in his daughter and wife after they started practicing
Falun Gong. He explained about how he had changed his attitude towards his
daughter and wife's practicing Falun Gong, from opposition to support. He also
told them about the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) history of persecuting
people and later redressing them, in an attempt to persuade the police to act
with human conscience and to consider their own futures. The police thought that
Wu Qilian's words really made sense, but they said that even though Wu Qilian
was very compassionate, the arrest order came from above and they told him that
he could not see his wife at that time. According to a practitioner from another
place who had been arrested previously and released, Wu Qilian and Wenying were
taken to the detention center purely as an evil-practical-joke set up by Wang
Fengjun and some others. In fact Wu Qilian and Wenying had not distributed truth
clarification materials as charged. Recently, officers from the Jiamushi Railroad Police Station were seen
conducting undercover spying activities. The regulations of the Jiamushi
Railroad Police Station authorizes them only to handle train station and
on-train related criminal cases, and they have no jurisdiction to handle
community security activities. From this, it can be clearly seen that the police
from Jiamushi Railroad Police Station have gone beyond their jurisdiction in
following the CCP's orders to persecute innocent people. Jiamushi Railroad police station: July 1, 2008 |
