9. [Yueyang City, Hunan Province] Facts about the Persecution of an Elderly Married Couple by the "610 Office" at the Linzhi Group Company

There is an elderly married couple who are Falun Dafa practitioners at the Linzhi Group Company in Yueyang City, Hunan Province. In year 2000, the couple went to Beijing to safeguard Falun Dafa. As a result, Yang Guangming, then head of the company's "610 Office," ordered that 3,000 Yuan [500 Yuan is the average monthly income for an urban worker in China.] be deducted from each of the couple's income. The husband's monthly retirement salary was only a little over 500 Yuan, and 300 Yuan was unlawfully deducted each month. After the husband passed away, the "610 Office" still did not give up and continued to make deductions from the wife's retirement salary, which was only 270 Yuan a month, an amount barely enough to purchase food. From 2000 to 2002, the "610 Office" took away from the old couple a total of 4,988 Yuan. The elderly lady demanded an answer from Li Aiqun, the current director of the "610 Office," and Chen Huiming, currently the deputy director, as to why her husband's fine had to be deducted from her account after her husband had passed away. Both Li and Chen at first admitted this fact, but have been denying it recently in order to cover it up. At the beginning of 2001, the couple's daughter went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong, and had a total of 8,000 Yuan extorted from her, 5,000 Yuan of which was a personal loan to the company from the practitioners' family. Yang Guangming, the former director of the "610 Office," conspired with the Party secretary Chun Kexiang in coercing and threatening the elderly lady, and eventually cheated the old lady out of the receipt for the loan. The loan was written off and privately divided among the leaders of the company. Members of the company's "610 Office" have also worked with the police station by unlawfully sentencing the daughter to one and a half years of forced labor education.
