(Minghui.org) At 7 a.m. on September 25, 2012, nearly 20 Falun Gong practitioners were arrested and detained in Fushun City. Police officers broke in and handcuffed them after verifying their names. They confiscated their personal belongings including bank deposit slips. Officers scaled the fence and broke the lock on the door to get in. They also threatened to shoot anyone who tried to run away. They also detained the practitioners' friends and relatives who happened to come over to visit. If they were Falun Gong practitioners, they were arrested. Some relatives were later released after they were arrested and taken to Fushun City.

Relatives of the arrested practitioners filed a lawsuit against the police in Fushun City.
It was reported that the CCP implemented a so-called F08 special case action across the entire province to persecute Falun Gong practitioners. Yang, vice director of Fushun City Police Department, took the lead, Gao Bing did the planning, and officers from Fushun City Police Department, including Fushun National Security Office and the Dongzhou, Shunchen, and Qingyuan County police departments, were all involved. Before 3 a.m. on September 25, they all gathered at the Fushun Police Department with their hand guns, handcuffs, tape, and digital cameras. They dressed in plainclothes, did not drive marked police vehicles, and planned to arrest 16 people. About 40 to 50 police officers participated.
On September 25, a small van, its license plate covered, parked downstairs at the home of practitioner Ms. Liu Liying. About seven or eight officers hid near the entrance. More than 110,000 yuan in cash was confiscated from Ms. Liu’s home. Including the money on the bank card, over 160,000 yuan was confiscated. (Ms. Liu intended to use the funds to purchase a car and open a food store.) Officers also confiscated over 40 telephones, one PC, one printer, and over 40 books.
Ms. Liu’s husband, who had just been home a few days, was handcuffed and taken away, too. His wrists were swollen due to the tight handcuffs. Ms. Liu Liying’s friend, Xiao Yan, had just stopped by to visit and also got arrested. Police officers pulled Xiao Yan out of the car.

Mr. Gai Yongjie was arrested at his home, which was ransacked. Officers confiscated over 400 or 500 yuan on the bookshelf, his computer, printer, DVD burner, and other personal belongings.
