My mother Ai Xiuwen, 58, is a retired lecturer in Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province.
Dafa practitioner Ai Xiuwen from the Taiping District in Harbin City
My mother has had a tough life. Because my father did not work, my parents got divorced when I was very young. When she was in her 30's, my mother moved away with my brother, sister, and me, and led a difficult life. At that time, our home was in a one-story house. Because all three of us children were very young, my mother needed to carry coal, water and food by herself and she did all the hard labor that was usually done by a man. My mother was concerned that we might be mistreated so she didn't marry again. She brought us up with her meager income. At the same time, my mother was conscientious about her work, and she was awarded the recognition of "Model Worker" and "Outstanding Teacher" many times.
Because my mother worked very hard, her body became quite weak in her old age. She had serious heart disease, neural problems and muscle strain. In 1996, my mother started to practice Falun Dafa and she seemed to have completely changed. Everyone who saw her said, "What have you done to make yourself look so good?" She also recovered from her heart disease. Mother often said that Falun Gong gave her a second life.
After Jiang Zemin started to persecute Falun Gong, my mother went to Beijing twice to appeal, and was illegally detained for over two months. On January 12, 2005, when my mother went to a practitioner's home to deliver some information about the persecution of Falun Dafa, three policemen from Nangang Police Station in Harbin followed and abducted her. At the same time, another Dafa practitioner named Xiao Hong was also abducted. Because my mother had a great deal of Dafa truth-clarification materials with her, the police claimed that my mother was the principal offender. At present, my mom is detained in the serious crime group in Section No. 7 of the Harbin Police Department. During the interrogation, no one was allowed to visit her.
On the day that my mother was arrested, my family was very worried because she did not come home. My family called Xiao Hong's husband and learned that my mother and Xiao Hong had been arrested. My uncle went to the police station and saw my mother. She told my uncle not to allow the police to extort us in order to secure my mother's release. According to the policemen who were responsible for her case, my mother was very determined and didn't give them any information.
The latest news is that my mother has been sentenced to three years of forced labor and is now detained at the Wanjia Labor Camp. I feel very worried about my mother's current situation.
