48 Hours in a Chinese Detention Center

I arrived at the Beijing International Airport at approximately 4:00pm Beijing time on Monday, March 25th. I departed from the airport on shuttle bus number 3 into Beijing and got off at the Dongzhimen subway station. After handing out about five pieces of Falun Dafa information to a young boy and vendors on the street, a big ruffian came up from behind me. He grabbed me by the arm and pulled me to the side of the street. I was immediately surrounded by several other men and couldn't move. The men had red bandanas tied around their arms. They didn't identify who they were. They tried to take me behind a fence so the people on the street wouldn't see me, but I refused. After a few minutes, one of them radioed the police and about 7 fully uniformed police arrived within five minutes in a police van. Upon reading the information I had handed out, the policemen grabbed me and tried taking me into the police van. When I tried to leave and continue on my way, they used more force to move me towards the police van. At this point, I called out 'Falun Dafa Hao' (Falun Dafa is Good) to the crowd that had gathered on the street. The police then became violent and began slapping me in the face and kicking me in the legs. I continued to call out 'Falun Dafa Hao' and was picked up and thrown into the police van. They forced me to the floor of the van and kept kicking me to keep me silent. Upon closing the doors and shutting the window visors, they drove me away to a nearby police substation and took me into a room for interrogation. It was around 5:30pm Beijing time.
