(Clearwisdom.net) A Chinese Falun Gong practitioner was arrested for carrying Falun Gong materials through Shenzhen Customs after her family visit to Hong Kong six months ago. Her family in Hong Kong is worried that she could have been secretly tried and thrown into prison. The following is edited report based on an interview by Lin Di, RFA reporter to Hong Kong on May 18.

Thirty-nine-year-old Lin Junhui used to work in a local government in China, but she was fired for practicing Falun Gong and was unable to find another job since then.

She went to visit her sister in Hong Kong last November and was detained at Shenzhen Customs on her way back home. Her family has not heard any news about her since then.

According to her sister, Lin Junqing, "She was arrested at Luohu Customs of Shenzhen on November 22, 2003, for carrying Falun Gong CDs and flyers. It wasn't until a week later that we found she was sent to the Luohu Detention Center. It has been almost six months since then. We can't get in touch with her."

Ms. Lin: My brother in China and I have made countless phone calls for any possible news about Junhui. Government entities either ignored us or shifted responsibilities. I called earlier today for nothing.

I called the Procuratorate and was told my sister's case had been sent to the court. But when I called the court, the judge dared not to talk to me or answer the phone.

Reporter: Dared not answer the phone?

Lin: No, he wouldn't. Not even once out of the dozen of times I called.

Ms. Chen Ruijun, contact person for the Global Rescue of Falun Gong Practitioners in Hong Kong, told the reporter that they had distributed flyers and held Walk to Rescue activity last Sunday in order to raise awareness of the situations of detained Falun Gong practitioners like Lin Junhui.

Chen: Our Walk to Rescue activity told the public this news. We held boards with the victims' pictures and introduction regarding her situation.

Ms. Lin said Hong Kong laws require approval by police for activities of more than thirty participants. So, they kept the number of participants under thirty. The walk lasted eight or nine hours and passed many resident communities and busy districts. They called for support from the society to help detained Falun Gong practitioners in China.

Ms. Chen told the reporter that they had held such activities many times and had often met tourists from Mainland China.

Chen: They were very shocked to see us. They thought Falun Gong must have been banned in Hong Kong because Hong Kong is part of China. Some tourists from Mainland China clearly knew the situation of Falun Gong and the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners. So, they understand we were trying to rescue our fellow practitioners.

Currently, four Hong Kong residents and at least four family members of Hong Kong residents have been detained or thrown into prison in China for practicing Falun Gong.
