(Clearwisdom.net) In 2009, officials from Wen County Court in Jiaozuo City, Henan Province tried Mr. Wu Baoyi, Mr. Wang Wanying and Mr. Wang Weidong. These practitioners are presently illegally detained in Zhengzhou Prison in Henan. Mr. Wu, 71 years old, was sentenced to four years, Mr. Wang Wanying was sentenced to three and a half years and Mr. Wang Weidong was sentenced to three years in prison.

Mistreatment of Mr. Wu Baoyi

Mr. Wu Baoyi lives in Pubei Village in Huangzhuang Town, Wen County. Before practicing Falun Gong, he often had numbness and pain in one arm. He sought treatment in hospitals countless times, but none were effective. After practicing Falun Gong, he recovered from his ailment very quickly.

When Falun Gong was suppressed by the Communist regime, Niu Jun, the deputy head of the county police department, and Pan Si, an officer from the police station in Huangzhuang, as well as others constantly harassed him at his home. Mr. Wu persisted in distributing brochures to expose the persecution of Falun Gong, and he was consequently sentenced to two years of forced labor on April 16, 2001. He was tortured during his detention in the Third Labor Camp in Henan Province.

On January 14, 2009, the detention center refused to take Mr. Wu because his blood pressure was too high. He was put on medical parole. On the morning of September 29, 2009, staff from Wen County Court phoned Mr. Wu and deceived him into going to the court. He was then arrested and sent to Zhengzhou Prison.

Mistreatment of Mr. Wang Weidong

Mr. Wang Weidong is 38 years old. He lives in Beimeng Village, Fantian Town, Wen County. Since practicing Falun Gong, he has followed the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance in his life. The people in his village regard him highly.

After the Communist regime started its brutal persecution of Falun Gong, Mr. Wang went to Beijing to appeal. He was arrested and taken to a brainwashing facility run by the 610 Office in Wen County. He went on a hunger strike to protest his detention. Police officers from the county police department took Mr. Wang to a detention center in March 2001. He was sentenced to two years of forced labor on April 16, 2001 and imprisoned in the Third Labor Camp in Henan Province.

On January 10, 2009, police officers from the Wen County Police Department arrested Mr. Wang again and detained him in the county detention center. Later on, they went to ransack his house and confiscated a computer as well as Falun Gong brochures. Two days later, on February 17, Mr. Wang was formally charged. He was secretly sentenced to three years of imprisonment.

Mistreatment of Mr. Wang Wanying

Mr. Wang Wanying is 61 years old and lives in Cuizhuang Village, Huangzhuang Town, Wen County. He was sentenced to two years of forced labor by the Labor Committee in Jiaozuo City on April 18, 2002. He was tortured while held in the Third Labor Camp in Henan Province. On November 10, 2006, he was detained for 15 days by officials of the county police department and made to pay 500 yuan. On January 9, 2009, he was arrested and his home was ransacked. On July 16, he was secretly sentenced to four years in prison.
