(Clearwisdom.net) According to witnesses, at around 8 p.m. on January 17, 2007, several police cars surrounded the building where a practitioner couple, Mr. Luo Xiangxu and his wife Ms. Xiang Zhongyao, had rented an apartment. Over a dozen policemen forced the landlord to open the door, intending to arrest and ransack their home. Trying to escape, Mr. Luo jumped down from the fourth floor, fracturing his left hand and right thigh bone.
The policemen locked Ms. Xiang Zhongyao in a room, and people on the outside
could only hear her struggling. At around midnight the neighbors saw Ms. Xiang
being taken out of the room with her hands tied behind her back. The policemen
confiscated the couple's computer, printer and truth clarification
materials. They then took Ms. Xiang and her one-year-old daughter into a police
car. They sent Mr. Luo to Qishi Hospital. Mr. Luo Xiangxu was moved into the
operation room at around 11 p.m. on January 17, and was discharged by 4:30 a.m.
on January 18. His right leg was set, and the police started to interrogate Mr.
Luo at around 10 a.m.
Mr. Luo was a model worker of the General Industry (Group) Company of Chongqing
every year, and was even a model worker of the city at one point after he
started practicing Falun Gong. Ms. Xiang Zhongyao was a young promising
chemistry teacher at the 124 Middle School of Jiangbei District. After the
persecution of Falun Gong began, the couple went to Beijing to clarify the truth
about Falun Gong. Because of that, they were sentenced to forced labor and were
fired from their jobs. Ms. Xiang was released in 2004 from the Women's Prison of
Guangxi. Sentenced to seven years there, Ms. Xiang suffered atrophy of her legs
and a mental collapse. Mr Luo was sent to the Yongchuan Men's Prison in
Chongqing for four years.
We hope that all practitioners and people of conscience in China and overseas will help to end this brutal persecution. Let us make use of our strong righteous thoughts to completely negate this terrible persecution, and to help those innocent practitioners come back home as quickly as possible.
