On July 1, Xie Zhonggui was arrested without cause by four policemen from the Beijing Road Police Station, who had waited for him near his residence. The police attempted to force Xie Zhonggui to write the so-called Three Statements and Xie refused. Then they sent him to the notorious Lannigou brainwashing class and detained him there for persecution.

After Xie Zhonggui's 76-year-old mother Pi Yuming learned of her son's arrest, she went to the police station to reason with them but did not get any result. The afternoon of July 6, Pi Yuming went to the police station again. Six or seven policemen grabbed and twisted Pi Yuming's arms and legs. They harshly stuffed her into a vehicle, causing this 76-year-old woman various injuries.

Xie Zhonggui used to be a drug user and could not extricate himself from it. It was Falun Dafa that saved him and enabled him to regain his life, but now he is being persecuted for being a good person. The following is a statement from Xie Zhonggui's parents.

Appeal Statement

We are Xie Zhonggui's father (nearly 90 years old) and mother (nearly 80 years old). Our son is a truly good person. He was arrested without cause by four policemen from Beijing Road Police Station in front of our residence on July 1 because he is a Falun Dafa practitioner.

Our son Xie Zhonggui used to be a drug user, and our family became poor due to his drug use. When his drug addition flared up, he could not control himself and became hostile even toward his own family. Later he could no longer finance his drug use and attempted suicide twice. The first time he was rescued after taking a large amount of sleeping pills. The second time, before he was about to kill himself, one of his good friends who is a Dafa practitioner persuaded him to read Zhuan Falun and told him that this heavenly book could change him into a better person.

After Xie Zhonggui read Zhuan Falun he became a completely changed person. Not only did he give up his drug addiction, he also got rid of his other bad habits. He became very considerate of his parents and cherished his life. Xie Zhonggui conducts himself according to the teachings in Zhuan Falun. In the several years of his cultivation, he set a higher standard for himself and did not do anything that would harm the country, society, people or his family.

After July 20 of 1999, the Chinese government banned Falun Gong. Based on his trust in the government, Xie Zhonggui went to appeal according to the constitution, but for several years he experienced repeated persecution and his personal freedom could not be protected. He could not get a peaceful environment at home, as he was forced to stay away from home and wander around homeless. Police arrested him one day and beat him. He was seriously hurt and his whole body was covered with injuries. He had an infected wound on his back that began to fester. The pain was so great that he fainted several times.

I am his mother. I got cirrhosis at age 30, and my whole body became swollen. The movements of my hand and foot joints were impaired. I had fainted several times. In order not to let my family bear too much of a financial burden, I stopped seeking treatment. Later, after I saw my son undergoing tremendous changes in his thoughts and conduct after practicing Falun Gong, I followed his footsteps and began practicing Falun Gong. After practicing Falun Gong, my health became better and better each day. This is a heavenly blessing for me. Falun Dafa saved my son and my life.

At around 4 o'clock on the afternoon of July 1, 2005, Xie Zhonggui came home to visit his parents. He was arrested without cause in front of our residence. After that I went to the Beijing Road Police Station to ask for my son's release, but they completely denied knowledge of the arrest. The second day, when I went to the police station to demand my son's return, they told me he had been detained at the Lannigou brainwashing center because he did not write the "Three Statements" and refused the "reformation."

Two people monitored Xie Zhonggui in this brainwashing class 24 hours a day, denying him any personal freedom.

This is a serious violation of China's constitution, Article 37, which "Prohibits illegal detention and other means of depriving and limiting citizen's personal freedom, Prohibits illegal body searching of citizens," and Article 38, "Citizen's individuality and dignity should not be violated. Any insult, slander, false charge and framing of a citizen is prohibited."
