At around 4 p.m. on February 4, 2005, Li Tongzhong from the 610 Office of Shouguang City in Shandong Province and more than 10 others went to the home of Zhang Keliang in Houpuli Village and arrested him and his wife Wang Zhongyun.

After the police entered the village, they surrounded Mr. Zhang’s home, blocked the paths into and out of the village and began to search for the couple. During the illegal search, the policemen ransacked the couple’s home. The 80-year-old mother of Mr. Zhang Keliang and his 10-year-old young daughter were so frightened that they were trembling. One policeman even blamed this young girl for not telling them where her parents were. He punched the girl, almost knocking her to the ground. Five or six policemen (including Liu Zhushen, Guo Hongtang, and Ma Wenhe) used a confiscated key to open the door to Mr. Zhang Keliang’s home and did not follow any legal procedure to ransack Mr. Zhang’s home.

During an illegal interrogation session, the policemen used torture to force them to confess. The police stripped off all of Mr. Zhang Keliang’s clothes, handcuffed Mr. Zhang’s hands behind his back, tied up his feet with electric wires and used Mr. Zhang’s winter coat to wrap up his head. Three policemen (Zhao Chunli, Liu Zhushen and Ma Wenhe) stepped on Mr. Zhang’s head and back and used high voltage electric batons to shock his whole body. They shocked his throat, nipples and genitals. They poured water on Mr. Zhang’s head and used an electric baton to shock his Baihui point (an acupuncture point at the top the head). They also inserted cigarettes into his two nostrils and burned his back with burning cigarettes, slapped him on the face, struck him with a belt, and beat him. They did this continuously for over 10 hours, from 5 p.m. to 3 a.m. the next morning.

Mr. Zhang Keliang’s back and spine were fractured again. (In December 2001, his back was fractured and his kidney was injured by Sang Hanli and four policemen from the Wenjia Street Police Station in Shouguang City). When he and his wife were sent to the detention center, not even their friends could recognize them. Mr. Zhang Keliang walked abnormally, his face was swollen and missing skin on the left side. He had several deep scars on his right chin about 3 cm long, which appeared to be burn wounds, and he had deep burn marks on his throat. Mr. Zhang Keliang’s wife was disheveled and her forehead was badly bruised. Even after they were physically abused like that, they were still sent to the Shouguang Detention Center. Later on, they were sent to the Weifang Brainwashing Center for further persecution. Before they were sent from the detention center to the brainwashing center in Weifang City, half of Wang Zhongyun’s body was immobilized. She needed other detainees to carry her in a stretcher for a physical examination or interrogation. Even after they had been persecuted to such an extent, Mr. and Mrs. Zhang were still forcibly sent to a brainwashing center in Weifang City.

When they left the brainwashing center of Weifang City, Mr. and Mrs. Zhang were very skinny and appeared deformed. Mr. Zhang Keliang had lost almost all of his hair at the top of his head, where he had been shocked with electric batons. He had bruises and injuries all over his body, and his back was hunched over. He became paralyzed and lost his ability to work. Ms. Wang Zhongyun’s face was wax yellow, her eyesight was fuzzy and she could no longer see clearly. She was paralyzed on half of her body. Their family now lives in poverty and has to rely on assistance from relatives and friends.

 Authorities at Jinan Prison deprived practitioner Wang Chenglin's family members of the right to visit him many times on the pretext of his refusing to be "transformed".

Practitioner Wang Chenglin from Qingdao City was illegally sentenced to jail for 11 years since he made Falun Gong truth-clarifying materials in 2004. Since then he has been detained at Jinan Prison. Because he refused to give up Falun Gong, he was subjected to persecution with the "strictest control" by the guards. His family members went to visit him many times, but were denied entrance by the authorities of the prison.

In September 2005, his family members learned that he had been tortured to an unconscious state. They became extremely worried and requested to take him out for medical treatment, but their request was rejected. Wang Chenglin's 88-year-old father missed him very much. Also, after learning of the Chinese Communist Party's crimes of harvesting living practitioners' organs, he was extremely worried and came down with an illness for which he had to be hospitalized.

On May 18, 2006, other family members picked the father up from the hospital and brought him to Jinan Prison again, expecting to visit Wang Chenglin. One director claimed that since Wang Chenglin refused to be "transformed", he was strictly controlled and his family members were not allowed to visit him. With the Mr. Wang's father's painstaking pleas, he was allowed to see his son at last for a few minutes. The son just called out "father", and before he had an opportunity to say more, his father was driven off.
