(Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Guan Yujing, former judge for the Fujian Province High Court, had worked for the court for over 20 years.

During the past ten years, due to Ms. Guan’s persistence in her belief in Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance, she has been sent to a mental hospital twice and once to a forced labor camp. She was sentenced to four years of imprisonment, dismissed from work and taken away from her family. One year after her release on June 23, 2009 from her four years of imprisonment, Ms. Guan was arrested again. She was sentenced again in 2010 to eight years of imprisonment and is now in the Fujian Province Women’s Prison. Her father used to work in the legal field and was in his seventies. He went through painstaking efforts to save his daughter. He passed away not too long ago, frustrated and angry with the authorities.

1. Twice Forced into Mental Hospital

Ms. Guan Yujing suffered from poor health when she was young. In 1997, a co-worker introduced her to Falun Gong. Afterward, she not only became healthy, but her mental outlook became purified. She followed the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance and donated tens of thousands of yuan she earned from selling stocks to the “Hope Project,” a charity dedicated to providing education to underprivileged kids. She treated her co-workers and family kindly and worked hard at her job.

This Falun Gong practitioner was persecuted in July 1999. Ms. Guan decided to appeal in Beijing and was detained. She protested and was accused of having a mental illness, and was subjected to persecution at a mental hospital. Her family eventually took her home.

Ms. Guan went to the National Office of Letters and Appeals in Beijing on December 26, 1999, but was arrested even before she stepped into the office. She was sent to a detention center that same night. Three days later, she was forced into a mental hospital and was not released until after the 2000 Chinese New Year.

During the National People’s Congress in March 2000, Dafa disciples wrote an open letter to the Congress. Led by Deng Benxin from the city police department, policemen ransacked Ms. Guan’s home with the excuse that she had a copy of the public letter and a blank copy of Dafa disciples’ signatures. They held her at the Fuzhou City First Detention Center for 15 days and then sent her again to a mental hospital. Doctors there ordered four male patients to tie her onto a metal bed, and to give her injections. The drugs damaged her central nervous system. This time Ms. Guan was detained for over four months. After her release, she was constantly monitored. She did not have freedom to move around until the 2001 Chinese New Year.

2. Detained in a Forced Labor Camp for One Year

In 2001, in order to tell people the truth about the staged “Tiananmen Self-immolation Incident,” Ms. Guan made copies of truth clarification materials. She was arrested while making copies and held at the city’s second detention center. A month later she was sent to a forced labor camp. While there, authorities tried to “reform” Ms. Guan and make her write a guarantee statement. She was locked in a solitary cell and was deprived of sleep for eighteen consecutive days. During that time her workplace fired her, and they also disqualified her from being a judge. After one year and 15 days in a forced labor camp, she was released in March 2002.

3. Sentenced to Four Years of Imprisonment

Ms. Guan was arrested again at work on January 14, 2004 and was held at the Fuzhou City Second Detention Center. She was eventually sentenced to four years of imprisonment. Her husband divorced her.

The detention center guards attempted to send Ms. Guan to the Fujian Women’s Prison. She fought against it. Then several guards pulled her hair and beat her brutally. The guards called in eight armed policemen and tied up her hands and feet, and put her on a hospital bed cart. She still shouted, “Falun Dafa is good.” The guards panicked and taped her mouth shut. Just like that, Ms. Guan was sent away.

In the Fujian Province Women’s Prison she stayed in the Sixth Ward. During the day she was forced to do heavy-duty work. After work at night, in an attempt to get her to “reform”, they made her stand for hours facing the wall without giving her any food or water. Two inmates were assigned to watch and torture her around the clock. The officials also pressured the inmates in the same cell. If Ms. Guan refused to give up her belief, the cell inmates wouldn’t have their terms reduced or their days off, or TV time would be taken away. They used this to incite hatred toward Ms. Guan.

The prison holds two violent brainwashing sessions every year. Led by Feng Ningsheng and political head Li, the guards locked Ms. Guan in a room in the brainwashing center to torture her. There are many mosquitoes in the summer. In the winter she had to sleep on the cold concrete floor and eat cold leftovers. When the persecutors hung her up, they did so from a window frame, with only the tips of her toes touching the floor. Usually this lasted for three days. Her hands were bleeding from the handcuffs. Afterwards her wrists were left with scars, and her feet became deformed. She could not walk due to a blood clot and an infection on her feet, and had to hold on to a wall to move around.

4. Sentenced Again, This Time to Eight Years

When Ms. Guan got ready to go to work on the morning of June 23, 2009, agents from the Domestic Security Division and the 610 Office were waiting downstairs and arrested her. They also ransacked her home. She was held at the Fuzhou City First Detention Center.

Taijiang District Court in Fuzhou City tried Ms. Guan on January 30, 2010. Ms. Guan defended herself and pleaded not guilty. The judge was Chen Wen (male): 86-591-83827783 (Office)

Ms. Guan was sentenced to eight years of imprisonment, and she is now being held in the Fujian Province Women’s Prison.
