(Clearwisdom.net) Prior to the National People's Congress (NPC) and the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference (CPPCC) on March 2, 2011, officers from the Nongan County Police Department Domestic Security Division and Yangshulin Township Police Station broke into Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Yang Shumei’s home and illegally arrested her. Her home was also ransacked. On April 11, Nongan County practitioners Yang Shumei, Yu Changli, and Ms. Zhang were illegally detained in the Nongan County Detention Center. The practitioners held hunger strikes for over forty days to protest the persecution. They have subsequently been tied to beds and injected with unknown drugs six times per day.
