(Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Cheng Qiaoyun is a Falun Gong practitioner from Daqing, Heilongjiang Province, China. She is a laid off worker of the Jiulong Company in Daqing. Jiulong Company just gave her a lump sum severance fee, and did not give her the pension she deserves for her work there. Even though Ms. Cheng is no longer working for the company, she was not spared being persecuted by them. She was sentenced to two years in prison in 2002 because she maintained her practice of Falun Gong. When she completed her prison term on May 27, 2004, her brother went to pick her up but the police refused to allow him to see her. The two staff members from Daqing City's "610 Office," Mr. Zhang Guojun and Mr. Liu Xiping, the Secretary and a staff member from Jiulong Company, Mr. Li Xiuen and Mr. Liu Xinglin, the Secretary of Jiulong Company's branch office, Mr. Zhang Jianguo, as well as two staff members from Daqing Labor Union, Ms. Han Yuhui and Mr. Xu Guohua, took Cheng Qiaoyun to the Hongweixing Brainwashing Center in Daqing City.

After she was finally released, she was illegally detained for fifteen days and then sent back to the Hongweixing Brainwashing Center. The repeated brainwashing and torture were destroying her body and spirit. When she was on the brink of death, the torturers sent her to the hospital for emergency resuscitation. After a few days, they took her out of the hospital and resumed the torture. After another forty days of repeated physical torture and brainwashing, Ms. Cheng Qiaoyun became mentally disoriented. She would even eat sand mixed with rice, and would not say a word. She could not sleep day and night. The torturers had mangled her hands and crippled her legs. The police have recently taken her out of Hongweixing Brainwashing Center. Because she could not walk, the police dragged her out. Her current whereabouts are unknown.

Falun Gong practitioners in Daqing have been deeply concerned since she went missing. It has been some twenty days since she was taken somewhere. We have looked everywhere and asked everyone about her, but we have no clue as to where she is or whether she is even still alive. Ms. Cheng Qiaoyun's father is 78 years old. He was a veteran soldier and is a retired member of the Chinese Communist Party. He has already filed a complaint to the local authorities, but has not received any acknowledgement so far. Her father is afflicted with ailments and is on many types of medication. His only wish is to be able to see his beloved daughter again before he dies. Her elderly mother is in tears everyday, missing her only daughter. She keeps saying to herself, "You are mommy's only baby. Please come back home."
