(Clearwisdom.net) I am a Dafa practitioner in Mudanjiang City. I was arrested and illegally detained in the No. 2 Detention Center of Mudanjiang City in early December 2002, for making Dafa truth-clarifying materials.

Liu Jinqun, the head of the detention center, stripped off female practitioners' pants when he and his accomplices brutally tortured them. When they learned I had been on a hunger strike since being detained at the Railroad Detention Center and continuing at the No. 2 Detention Center, he ordered me to be dragged out of my cell every day. My feet were shackled and restrained and they force-fed me with a small amount of milk mixed with large amount of salt. My stomach burned like fire all day long. I was force-fed every day and brutally beaten during interrogation periods. One day, Wang Wei, an officer at the Xi'an Police Department interrogated me and beat me until I was bruised all over. Then he unbuttoned my clothes and groped my breasts. After I passed out, he took my finger and put my fingerprints, against my will, several times on someone else's case files. Seeing that I would not give in after I regained consciousness, he threatened to drag me outside and freeze me to death in the --30 C temperature (-22 F).

I obtained the Fa in late 1998, and benefited greatly. After the persecution began on July 20, 1999, I took the train to go to Beijing to validate Dafa. While staying in Beijing for more than 20 days, I witnessed Beijing's police persecuting Dafa practitioners and non-practitioners. In August, I returned to Mudanjiang City. The head of the street committee learned I went to appeal, so he came to my home each day and attempted to coerce me to write a guarantee statement to give up my belief. Zhang Yitao, a police officer from Yangming Police Station ransacked my home and took away Dafa books, videos, audiocassettes and Master's pictures. Under their coercion, my husband signed a document. The head of the street committee begged me to write a guarantee statement to promise I wouldn't go to Beijing, and he said if I didn't write it, he and the local police chief would be fired. I didn't give up human sentimentality and agreed. However, this was only the beginning of the Jiang regime's persecution. Police officer Zhang Yitao illegally took me to the Yangming Police Station and asked me if I would still practice. He threatened me with forced labor and detained me for one day. During the Chinese New Year of 2000, the street committee officials and police came to my home seven times; they harassed, threatened and intimidated us and asserted tremendous pressure on all of my family.

In July 2000, a large-scale arrest was launched in Mudanjiang City. The police again threw me into police custody; they cuffed my hands behind my back and locked me to an iron chair for 20 hours. They tortured me for an entire night. The next day, Li Wei, the head of the police department, ordered me to move out of my home within two days upon my release and to move my household out of their precinct. My family became homeless and had to look for a place to rent.

On September 29, 2000, I again went to Beijing to appeal. On October 1, I saw police beating Dafa practitioners in Tiananmen Square; I walked up to them to reason with them and stop them. As a result, I was arrested and sent back to the No. 2 Detention Center of Mudanjiang City and held for 294 days. Many other Dafa practitioners were also illegally detained. We were brutally tortured, physically and mentally. In the end, I was unconditionally released on July 23, 2001, when I was on the verge of death from a hunger strike that lasted many days. During the persecution that lasted nearly ten months, I didn't say anything against Dafa and I didn't betray my faith in Truth, Compassion, Tolerance. Instead, I wrote to my supervisor in a peaceful and rational manner to tell about the injustices done to the practitioners.

On August 9, 2002, the Mudanjiang City Police Department and its four branch police departments illegally pursued me because I worked with Dafa materials. I was forced to leave home for more than three months. The police failed to capture me so they arrested my husband and detained him at the Yangming Police Station for one day. They also stopped my son in front of the school gate and tried to extort information about my whereabouts from him, which caused great damage to my son's innocent young heart. The police also staked out at my sister's shop and harassed my family.

On November 28, 2002, I was arrested in Daqing City, Heilongjiang Province. Two fellow practitioners including Yie Lianping were also arrested. Yie Lianping has been tortured to death. In the evening of November 28, police from Political and Security Division of Mudanjiang City hung up Yie Lianping and me in a jeep and the handcuffs bit into our flesh. We could not stand or sit when being hung up and we were taken back to Mudanjiang City in this manner. In the evening, Ye Lianping was force-fed two bottles of mustard oil [very spicy and caustic similar to chili oil]and her head was forcibly put in a plastic bag. I was beaten with a broomstick by police officer Qiao Ping until I was bruised all over. My head and face convulsed and turned numb. The vicious thugs threw me into a car and drove me to the Railroad Detention Center in Mudanjiang City. I held a four-day hunger strike and didn't sleep to resist the evil. The guard brutally beat me and kicked me countless times with his hard boots. My hands were cuffed in front and then behind me. I was sent back to the city police department after I was tortured four days.

In early December 2002, I was illegally detained in the No. 2 Detention Center of Mudanjiang City, where I was brutally tortured daily. Wang Wei, the police at Xi'an Police Department interrogated me. The day after he beat me until I was unconscious, he came to extort a confession. He saw that I was in a very critical condition and was afraid I would die in jail. My family asked for me every day for half a month at the city police department. In mid December 2002, I was again released. However, my sister was forced to sign a document, so if I did anything that displeased the police, they would arrest my sister. I didn't say anything I was not supposed to say during the half month of my detention. I firmly resisted the police and faced them with righteous thoughts. While in detention, I recited the Fa, promoted the Fa and sent forth righteous thoughts. I am doing my best to safeguard the law of the cosmos using righteous thoughts and righteous actions in a peaceful and rational manner.
