Ten-year-old Girl Brutally Beaten and Locked in an Iron Cage by Police
Cheng Siying is a ten-year-old girl, born in the city of Guangdong. She moved to Ya'an City, Mingshan County, Sichuan Province because her parents were recently employed there. She went to school at Mengdingshan Town Central Elementary School in Mingshan County. She was in Room 1 in the 4th grade. She lived with her parents in Yongxing Town, Mingshan County.
On August 7, 2008, Cheng Siying gave some materials about the persecution of Falun Gong to her Teacher, Cheng Zhongtao, who immediately called the National Security Brigade and reported her. Then, Gou Yongqiong, commander of the National Security Brigade, and two other police officers came to Mengdingshan Town Elementary School immediately and arrested Cheng Siying.
Cheng Siying's classmates witnessed Gou Yongqiong violently slap her face. She was shackled and handcuffed then locked in a small iron cage. Gou yelled curses at her non-stop. In the end, Gou gave every student in the school one yuan to encourage them to turn in Falun Gong practitioners. However, some students did not take the money.
Around 9 o'clock that night, Cheng's parents were also arrested. Their copy machine and other personal items in their home were taken away by the police.
On August 11, 2008, Cheng Siying returned home and went back to school. The wounds on her body were visible evidence of the torture she suffered. Her teacher, Cheng Zhongtao, viciously threw her schoolbag out of the classroom, and forbade her to attend class, depriving her of her right to go to school.
On August 18, 2008, Cheng Siying went back to school to cash in her leftover lunch ticket. Principal Yang Jiasen called her to his office and, out of sympathy for her situation, gave her a bicycle. He told her that the bicycle was newly bought by his daughter. Cheng Siying gave the principal a copy of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party before she left.
Now, Cheng Siying's parents' whereabouts are unknown. The young girl had no choice but to leave her home to avoid being arrested again.
Ms. Mu Yongxia Arrested Again by Daqing City Police (Photos)
Late in the evening of July 9, 2008, the Longgang Public Security Bureau in Daqing, Heilongjiang Province sent more than 10 policemen in police vans to surround the residence of 60-year-old Mu Yongxia. With the assistance of a locksmith, they forced their way into her home and took her away. It was said that Mu Yongxia shouted out twice "Falun Dafa is good," and then there was no sound from her. The police possibly covered her mouth to conceal their shameful behavior.

Then they ransacked her home, took her notebook computer, color printer, Falun Gong books and some other materials. All things in the house including chests and wardrobes were turned upside down, and their contents were scattered about.
The police had been harassing and following Mu Yongxia's son to find out her whereabouts before they arrested her. Mu Yongxia is still being held at Daqing Detention Center. Because there is no way for her to redress the injustice, she could only call out "Falun Dafa is good" every day. Her son tried to visit her, but the detention center refused to let him meet with her.
Between the end of June and beginning of July 2008, before the "Olympic flame" arrived in Daqing, the 610 Office in Daqing and some other CCP officials planned and instigated the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners. In order to incite hatred toward Falun Gong, they slandered Falun Gong by telling people that Falun Gong practitioners were going to disrupt the "Olympic Torch Relay." They ordered everyone not to listen to, read, or spread Falun Gong materials. They transmitted persecution documents from the top to the lower levels and advised the police to make Falun Gong practitioners a priority over criminals like murderers. They forced the police in all districts and counties to monitor, harass and arrest Falun Gong practitioners and to search their homes. They even used locksmiths to break into practitioners' homes and to arrest them. As of today there have been more than 40 Falun Gong practitioners arrested "because of the Olympic Games." Some of them have been released, while some are still being detained, facing "re-education" through labor, or other types of prison sentences. Their families are terribly worried about them.
