(Clearwisdom.net) (By a correspondent from Jiangxi Province) At around noon on November 29, 2009, Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Li Guihua from Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province was illegally arrested by policemen from the Lushannanlu Police Station. She was exposing the truth about the persecution of Falun Gong in front of the First Middle School of Jiujiang City. At around 5 p.m., a gang of policemen broke in and ransacked her house. Among the officers was a young, but fierce, officer who was physically rough with Ms. Li's husband.
Ms. Li is currently imprisoned in the Jiujiang Detention Center, where two policemen surnamed Huang and Wan are involved in persecuting her.
Ms. Li Guihua, 60 years old, has been illegally arrested, imprisoned and sentenced to imprisonment in labor camps several times. In 2000, she was taken to the Balihu Detention Center and detained for two weeks; she was released nine days after going on a hunger strike. In July 2001, she was taken to the Lushan Detention Center for a month. In December 2001, she traveled to Beijing to appeal to the authorities. After being arrested by officers of the Shuishang Police Station, she was taken from Tianjin City back to Jiujiang City Detention Center and imprisoned for another 37 days. In January 2002, she was transferred to Majialong Forced Labor Camp where she suffered brutal persecution and physical torture for another year.
In October 2003, Ms. Li was taken into custody again while clarifying the truth to Zhong Jiafu, a member of the Political Committee at Jiujiang Forced Labor Camp, and sentenced to imprisonment in the labor camp. Not long after that, in 2004, she returned home for medical reasons. Even before her health recovered, she was reported to the authorities again, this time by an elderly man who was deceived by the Communist Party's lies. Ms. Li was clarifying the truth on West 2nd Street when she was arrested by the National Protection Team. On the afternoon of that same day, October 26, she was taken straight to Majialong Forced Labor Camp without a hearing or any legal procedure.
In the labor camp, Ms. Li went on a hunger strike. After three months without food, her body became very weak. Even then, the labor camp guards forced her to do labor. Seeing her health deteriorate, the authorities released her for fear of being held responsible for her death.
On October 13, 2006, Ms. Li was exposing the persecution of Falun Gong to a group of college students when she was reported to the authorities and arrested by a gang of officers from Lushannanlu Police Station led by Cai Tao. After twenty days of imprisonment in the Jiujiang Detention Center, she was taken to the Nanchang Women's Forced Labor Camp. There, she suffered further persecution. Lu Xiuying, one of the policewomen, bribed drug addicts to torture Ms. Li physically. Once, she was held so tightly by the collar that she almost passed out due to suffocation.
Ms. Li returned home in March 2008. Eighteen months later however, she was arrested once again by officers from Lushannanlu Police Station.
