Ms. Zhen Qilan, who is currently 52 years old, lives in the First Section of the Shahe Village of Tangyuan Town of Pixian County, Sichuan Province. Since July 20, 1999, the day that Jiang's regime started its ban of Falun Dafa, Ms. Zhen has been to Beijing twice to appeal for Falun Gong. She has since been abducted a total of five times, and has been forced to wear handcuffs and fetters. The police and officials also tortured her using iron-hook branding, punching and kicking and slapping her in the face.
