What I Know of Beijing Deputy Mayor Ji Lin's Crimes

January 04, 2011 |   By a practitioner from Mainland China

(Clearwisdom.net) At 4:00 p.m. on December 13th, 2010, Beijing's deputy mayor Ji Lin arrived at Taoyuan Airport in Taiwan. Ji is active in the persecution of Falun Gong in China. Two hours after landing in Taiwan, Falun Gong practitioners notified him in person that a criminal lawsuit had been filed against him. I am going to share what I know about Ji Lin's involvement in the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in Miyun County, Beijing.

In October 1998, Ji Lin was a County Committee General Secretary at Miyun County, Beijing. Soon after that, Jiang Zemin began to persecute Falun Gong practitioners. Ji Lin followed Jiang closely, arresting and torturing local Falun Gong practitioners in order to gain political power for future promotions.

From 1999 to 2004, during the time when Ji Lin was the County Committee General Secretary at Miyun County and the Political Affairs and Regulations Committee General Secretary of Beijing, Miyun County became the area in Beijing that persecuted Falun Gong practitioners most severely. While he was the County Committee General Secretary at Miyun, Ji personally planned and conducted arrests and torture of Falun Gong practitioners. He was also involved in the examination and approval of each practitioner's sentencing.

The following are a few cases of Falun Gong practitioners who were sentenced during the four months from December 2000 to March 2001:

1. Four practitioners from Jugezhuang Village of Miyun County were sentenced to three to four years in prison (Clearwisdom reported: “On January 16, 2001, Dafa practitioners Chai Guijin, Chai Guiru, Li Jingchun and Jiao Shuxian were illegally sentenced to over three years of imprisonment. Among them, Chai Guijin was illegally sentenced to four years in jail. He is currently being held in Chadian, Tianjin”.)

2. Five practitioners from Shijingshan District hung up banners at Miyun County (among them a female practitioner with the last name of Shen), they were arrested and sentenced to three to five years in prison.

3. A female practitioner in her sixties from Gulounan district in Miyun County was sentenced to seven years in prison.

Ji Lin's biographic notes:

Male, born in April, 1962 in Shanghai. He joined the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in May 1984.

He joined the workforce in 1987. He has a Master's degree in criminal law from Renmin University of China; he was once an associate professor.
