1. [Tianjin City] Practitioner Ms. Han Wenmin Arrested by Police while Distributing Truth-Clarification Materials
On July 25, 2001, Ms. Han Wenmin was practicing Falun Gong at home, when several policemen forced their way into her home. They took away all the Dafa materials and books and then arrested her. She refused to give up practicing Falun Gong, so she was sentenced to three and a half years imprisonment. In prison, she refused to be "transformed." The prison guards put a helmet on her head and beat her savagely. They forced her to stand still for a long period of time. Her body was swollen all over and oozed a yellowish secretion. The guards force-fed her with a saline solution and told her family members to pay a 400 yuan "medical fee."
On January 25, 2005, Ms. Han was finally released from this hell-like prison. She immediately returned to Fa-validation and truth-clarification activities. On April 26, 2005, she was distributing truth-clarification materials in the Jinnan District when policemen from the Jinnan Police Station arrested her. They sent her to the Banqiao Women's Forced Labor Camp in the Dagang District. Practitioners detained there are forced to sit on small stools everyday. Some practitioners' hips fester with sores that cause excruciating pain.
2. [Shijiazhuang City, Hebei Province] A Practitioner Couple Was Detained for Over Five Months
Practitioners Ms. Zhang Lishan and her husband Mr. Zheng Hongjie are from Shijiazhuang City in Hebei Province. Ms. Zhang Lishan used to teach at the Department of Physics at Hebei Normal University. Mr. Zheng Hongjie used to be an official who worked at the Policy Research Institute of the Hebei Provincial Committee. On April 26, 2005, they were illegally arrested while distributing truth-clarification materials. Policemen from the Gexin Street Police Station illegally searched their home. About one week later, their work units fired them. So far, Ms. Zhang has been detained at the Second Detention Center in Shijiazhuang City for five months. Her case is being handled by the Xinhua District Court and Procuratorate. Since she refused to give up practicing Falun Gong, the detention center won't allow her family members to visit.
Their friends and family have been looking for a lawyer to defend the couple. One lawyer took their case but rejected it several days later, saying that the authorities "from above" told him not to take the case. Another lawyer said, "No legal regulation says that we cannot take the case, but it is an unwritten rule in Shijiazhuang City to not defend Falun Gong practitioners." Yet another lawyer said, "If I took this case, my law firm would be in trouble." Many lawyers said, "We can enter guilty pleas for Falun Gong practitioners. We can't enter 'not guilty' pleas."
After being detained for three months, Mr. Zheng Hongjie was released on July 14, 2005. It was said that a high-level official of Hebei Province was angry about his release and demanded that he be arrested again. On July 19, 2005, only five days after his release Mr. Zheng was arrested again without any legal procedures. He had spent only five days with his son. He is now detained at the Second Detention Center in Shijiazhuang City.
Their arrests have caused their parents much pain. Ms. Zhang's mother fell ill in July and was sent to the hospital. Their son needs to be cared for. He sometimes stays with his grandmother on his mother's side. Sometimes he stays at home by himself and eats only bread and frozen food. He is always sad, seldom talks to other people, and he locks himself in his room after school.
