A Kindhearted Police Officer Protects Falun Gong Practitioners

April 17, 2004 |  

(Clearwisdom.net) I recently got to know a man who used to be a police officer working for the "610 Office" [An agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems]. He shared with me his experience of protecting Falun Gong practitioners shortly after the persecution began in July 1999.

His mother used to suffer from various illnesses and only weighed about 80 pounds. However, after she took up the practice of Falun Gong, she recovered and also gained some weight. Therefore, he knew clearly Falun Gong was good from his mother's experience.

After the persecution of Falun Gong began on July 20, 1999, he was dispatched to the "610 Office" to persecute Falun Gong practitioners. Following his conscience, he tried his best to protect practitioners. Once, he and another policeman were supposed to ransack a practitioner's home. When he walked up to the water tank in the practitioner's home, he put his hands in the water and then he touched a bag of stuff wrapped with plastic bags. He knew that the bag contained Falun Gong books. So he pretended he did not find anything in the water tank. At that time another policeman came up and said, "How about we discharge the water and see what's in the tank?" He replied immediately, "Don't you know how much it costs to purchase one ton of water? Let's not do it." Thus he managed to protect the practitioner and his Falun Gong books. This practitioner was very grateful for the officer's righteous behavior.

Another time he learned that the police planned to ransack the home of one of his relatives who practiced Falun Gong. So he took his wife (she did not practice Falun Gong, but also knew Falun Gong was good) and went to the relative's home before the police arrived. He hid his relative's Falun Gong books around his waist. This was during the summer. Wearing a short-sleeved shirt, he looked very bulky. Right after he walked out of his relative's home, he was followed by a plainclothes police officer. But he went around and managed to lose him.

Now, he has quit his job as a policeman because he knows that persecuting Falun Gong practitioners is the same as committing a crime.
