Dafa Practitioner Mr. Ji Guangjie and Others Suffer Persecution in the Third Prison of Suzhou, Anhui Province

April 24, 2005 |   By a Dafa Disciple in Anhui Province

(Clearwisdom.net) The National Security Bureau of Hefei, Anhui Province, conspired with 610 Office personnel to arrest Dafa disciples Wang Yu, Mr. Ji Guangjie, Mr. Hu Enkui, He Jimin, Ma Yulan, and others in July 2003. They persecuted them secretly in a hotel with interrogation and brutal tortures. They didn't allow Mr. Ji Guangjie to sleep for three days. They hung Mr. Hu Enkui (a physics teacher at Feixi Yicheng Middle School) by his handcuffs for five days. After eight months, the scars on Mr. Hu's hands were still clearly visible. His legs were beaten and broken and left untreated, and he became crippled. These practitioners' family members didn't know what was going on until a court hearing was held on July 30, 2004. At the hearing, "trial personnel" and the court-appointed attorney ignored the criminal behavior of the public security and 610 personnel in using torture.

Mr. Ji Guangjie, over 40, is from Hefei, Anhui Province. Because he produced and distributed materials about the truth of Falun Dafa, he was taken into custody in Hefei on July 19, 2003. His family visited Mr. Ji once at the Hefei Detention Center, but heard no news about him after that. They called the detention center and learned that Mr. Ji had been sentenced to a seven-year jail term in 2004. In November 2004 he was sent to Suzhou Prison. Before Mr. Ji Guangjie was sent to prison, his family did not receive any notification about his sentence or where he was sent..

According to an unnamed source, Mr. Ji does not wear the prison uniform, and he does not identify himself as a criminal. He is suffering inhuman tortures. In addition, more than 100 Dafa disciples are imprisoned illegally in the Third Prison of Suzhou City in Anhui Province.

After his illegal sentence, when his blood pressure reached an extremely high level and his life was in danger, Mr. Ji was sent to and held in the eighth team of the Suzhou Third Prison. His family went to see him twice, but the prison guards ruthlessly turned them away. Below is a letter from Mr. Ji's wife to the warden.

Letter from Hefei Dafa practitioner Ji Guangjie's family to the prison head:

Warden:

Greetings. I am the wife of Falun Gong practitioner Ji Guangjie, who is imprisoned in the eighth team at the Suzhou Third Prison. On December 30, Ji Guanjie's younger sister and I went to visit him, but we were turned away by your subordinate Tang. He said that Ji Guanjie's behavior was not good, so we were not allowed to see him. He said, "Ji Guangjie's blood pressure is very high. If his life is in danger, we will inform you by phone." When we asked him for a meeting, he became unreasonably harsh, trying to intimidate us. He threatened that you would sue me. We had to return home.

Because the weather was cold, on January 4, Ji Guangjie's son went to deliver a cotton quilt and a cotton-padded jacket to his father. He was not even allowed to enter the gate. He earnestly and repeatedly asked the guards to deliver the quilt and clothes to his father, but they rejected him.

At the time Ji Guangjie was imprisoned, his blood pressure reached 230/170. His life was in danger, yet you still illegally put him in prison. Not only were the family members not informed of his imprisonment, but we were twice kept from seeing him after we learned where he was. In the cold of winter, we were not allowed to send him warm clothes and a quilt. The prison guards talked nonsense that Falun Gong practitioners don't need clothes. They even tried to intimidate visiting family members. There are many reports in the media claiming that the prison guards treat Falun Gong practitioners "gently," reeducating them with "kindness." However, our family's personal experience has been just the opposite.

The weather is cold. Ji Guangjie has only one thin quilt, and his blood pressure is high, which makes us very worried about his situation.

Warden, do your subordinates' words and deeds conform to the law? If not allowing Falun Gong practitioners to see their family members, not letting them correspond by letter, letting them suffer in cold weather, and treating visiting family members arbitrarily and unreasonably are prison rules you made yourself, then they should be announced to the public.

We earnestly request that you give Mr. Gi's family members reasonable answers. If you do not reply, we will forward the above information to all related departments, even to the Ministry of Justice and the National People's Congress.
