(Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Yu Xiaohua was sentenced to two years of forced labor and is currently imprisoned at the Harbin City Drug Rehab Center. Ms. Yu has been repeatedly harassed for practicing Falun Gong since the persecution began in 1999.
In August 1999, officer Zhao Peizhu called Ms. Yu for a meeting at the Xinxing Police Station. When Ms. Yu refused agree to stop practicing Falun Dafa, Wang Jun, director of the police department, ordered her detained for fifteen days.
In October 1999, Ms. Yu went to Beijing to appeal for the right to practice Falun Dafa. She was arrested by officers from the Qianmen Police Department in Beijing and transferred back to the Anda City Detention Center. Wang Jun signed an order condemning her to two years of forced labor. She was taken to the Shuanghe Forced Labor Camp in Qiqihar City, where she and other practitioners were forced to package the highly toxic agricultural chemical hexachlorocyolohexane without any protective gear, and subjected to brainwashing.
In the morning of June 7, 2009, Ms. Yu and Ms. Hao Guiyun went to Wanbaoshan Town by bike. They talked to people about Falun Dafa. On their way back, they were arrested by officers from the Wanbaoshan Town Police Station and held at the Andahang Detention Center. They were sentenced to two years of forced labor, and imprisoned in the Harbin City Drug Rehab Center on June 18.
Ms. Yu's family learned of her whereabouts two days later. Ms. Yu had been taking care of her parents-in-law since 1998. While she was detained, her mother-in-law passed away without the opportunity to say a final farewell.
