This article documents various violations of the law employed during Ms. Han's arrest.
Nurse in Coma Put on Trial by CCP Court
On May 12, "International Nurses Day," nurse and Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Liang Xiulan, who was in a deep coma due to the tortures, was put on trial in Qian'an City, Hebei Province. Those responsible for this miscarriage of justice were Zhou Wenqing and Wang Wen from the Procuratorate, Feng Xiaolin and Zhao Wenlu from the court, and Yang Yulin and two others from a brainwashing center. The court did not even notify Ms. Liang Xiulan's family about her trial.
The Qian'an City Detention Center and the brainwashing center did not want to be held responsible for Ms. Liang's deteriorating health and did not want to keep her in custody. After the trial, the court personnel drove Ms. Liang's physically disabled husband to the court, then took her and her husband home together.
Ms. Liang Xiulan is 43 years old. She was an outstanding nurse at the Chinese Medical Hospital of Qian'an City. Her parents live in Xiaguanying Village, Xiaguanying Town. She began to practice Falun Gong in 1998. Her husband was a policeman. Several years ago, her husband had a stroke and became paralyzed. Ms. Liang took care of all the housework. Under her conscientious care, her husband's condition improved.
Ms. Liang has been arrested multiple times. In the brainwashing centers and police department, her face has been slapped and she has been shocked with electric batons and tortured her in many other ways. Ms. Liang has suffered both physically and mentally. In May 2008 when she was arrested, policeman Pu Yonglai snarled at her, "If you die in our hands, it will be counted as suicide. Your death will have nothing to do with us. If you publicize what we did, we will be more than happy to learn about it. That way our bosses will know that we really did our work." He handcuffed her to two separate chairs. He and another policeman then used electric batons to shock her for an extended period of time. On the afternoon of the second day, policeman Ha Fulong and two others took her into another torture chamber and used electric batons to sexually assault her. They shocked her on her vagina, breasts, neck, feet, and lower body. While she was being covered with wounds and injuries from the torture, policeman Ha Fulong laughed.
Around April 1, 2009, Pu Yonglai, Ha Fulong, and Tang Guoqiang from the
Domestic Security Team of Qian'an City Police Department
illegally arrested Ms. Liang again and took her to Qian'an Detention Center.
She went on a hunger strike to protest the persecution. The detention center
brutally force-fed and tortured her further. Over the course of forty days, she
became terribly emaciated and on the verge of death. The detention center was
afraid of being held responsible and later on had policeman Pu Yonglai transfer
Ms. Liang to the brainwashing center.
Mr. Wang Xiwen Arrested and Denied Visits from His Lawyer
Mr. Wang Xiwen, a Falun Gong practitioner from the Fengrun District, Tangshan City, Hebei Province, was arrested at his home on March 23, 2009. Because he visited foreign websites, the police intended to illegally sentence him. It was said that the Fengrun District Procuratorate approved his arrest. In the morning on April 15, Mr. Wang's family and the two lawyers that they had hired in Beijing went to the Fengrun Detention Center to visit Mr. Wang. The detention center refused to allow them in and told them to talk to the Domestic Security team. When his family and lawyers went to the Domestic Security team, Chen Ruimin, the team leader, said, "We won't allow you to visit Falun Gong practitioners, since the Falun Gong cases are related to 'state secrets.' The supervisors said they are not allowed to be visited."
At 8:30 a.m. on May 6, the lawyer, Ms. Liu Wei, and Mr. Wang's elder sister and mother went to Fengrun District Police Branch in Tangshan City to see Chen Ruimin to negotiate for a visit with Mr. Wang. A policeman named Yang An received them. Yang An told them that it was not Chen Ruimin who could decide whether they would be allowed to visit Mr. Wang Xiwen or not. When they asked which supervisor could make the decision, there was no definite answer.
At 9 o'clock, Yang An's colleague asked him for a meeting. Since Yang An had not given an answer as to whether they could visit Mr. Wang Xiwen, his mother was waiting at the door for Yang An to give an answer. Yang An was very angry, and he threw a stool onto the floor twice. After that, he threw the broken stool out the window. After that, he cursed Mr. Wang Xiwen's mother, who is over seventy years old, using all kinds of dirty words.
Mr. Wang's mother could not tolerate Yang An's behavior. She asked Yang An to explain why he cursed her. Yang An was dragged away by his colleague and locked inside the office. Mr. Wang's mother waited outside and asked the colleague to explain to her why Yang An had cursed at her. His colleague, Yang Tao, said that Yang An was not cursing her, he was cursing the law. The situation lasted for over half an hour.
Later on Yang An called Mr. Wang Xiwen's lawyer and allowed the lawyer to come into his office. He apologized to the lawyer for his behavior, but he refused to apologize to Mr. Wang's mother.
Yang An told the lawyer that their decisions regarding Falun Gong cases were dictated by the instructions of the 610 Office. He hoped that the lawyer could understand their situation. As to the lawyer's request to see Mr. Wang Xiwen, he hoped that they could arrange it according to CCP law. However, currently he was not entitled to make any decision. They were told to wait until Chen Ruimin came back and that they needed to discuss it with him before Chen Ruimin could communicate with the supervisors to decide whether they would be allowed to visit.
At 2:00 p.m., the lawyer again called Yang An, who said that he had already called Chen Ruimin, but they still needed to meet in person to talk about the details. The next morning, they would discuss it before they gave the lawyers a definite answer.
The next morning, the lawyer called Yang An, who said, "I am now outside the Domestic Security Team. You go ahead [and visit Mr. Wang]. However, you are not supposed to say that I gave you permission." So the lawyer and Mr. Wang Xiwen's elder sister went to the Domestic Security Team. The moment they got to the office, the Domestic Security Team officers seemed to have been fully prepared. Chen Ruimin said several times, "Go away, we are not to allow you in." Then, four to five people rushed out of the the room. They cursed at and pushed away the lawyer and Mr. Wang's elder sister. The lawyer said, "I came here to see my client." Chen said he wanted to see the lawyers' certificate. After seeing the certificate, Chen said there was no number on it. The lawyer said, "You can go and verify whether my lawyer's certificate is valid or not."
Dong Fucun, the team leader of the Domestic Security Team, talked to Mr. Wang's elder sister as if he were interrogating a prisoner. He said, "Why have you come here?" She answered, "I am accompanying my brother's lawyer." "Who allowed you to hire the lawyer?" "As Mr. Wang Xiwen's sister, am I not allowed to hire a lawyer for him?" Dong said, "You are not allowed to hire a lawyer. You should leave immediately, otherwise we will arrest you." She said, "I came here with the lawyer, and I have to go back with her."
The staff of the Domestic Security Team threatened them. When the lawyer said she would complain about their unlawful behavior, Chen Ruimin answered, "You lawyers dare not complain. If you complain, you'll lose your lawyer's license. Every day, there are many Falun Gong calls, and I just ignore them."

Ms. Han Yuheng Arrested on a Business Trip and Sentenced to Forced Labor
On February 20, 2009, Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Han Yuheng from Qinhuangdao, Hebei Province, was on a business trip in Beijing. At around 7:30 p.m., she was arrested by Yongding Road Police Station in Haidian District, Beijing City at Tiejian Hotel, where she and six accompanying colleagues were staying.
All Falun Gong practitioners who have been identified by various authorities of the Chinese Communist Party have had their identification card numbers recorded. Each time they check into a hotel with their identification cards, the computer will give a special indication. The Domestic Security Team notified the Yongding Road Police Station in the Haidian District of Ms. Han's arrival. On February 21st at around 1:30 p.m., the police ordered the attendant to open the door of Ms. Han's room under the pretense of a routine check. The police entered the room and found a copy of "Minghui Weekly" on the bed. They started to check through Ms. Han's belongings and found two copies of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party, several truth-clarifying letters, and several sets of Shen Yun DVDs (three DVDs per set), small stickers, about 20 monetary bills that had truth-clarifying phrases written on them, and a copy of Zhuan Falun.
They took Ms. Han to Yongding Road Police Station. The next afternoon, she was taken to Haidian District Detention Center. Later she was transferred to the Forced Labor Dispatch Division located in Daxing County. She was illegally sentenced to two years of forced labor.
Practicing Falun Gong Improves Physical and Mental Wellbeing
Ms. Han Yuheng, 40 years old, is the head of the Junior Middle School Office of Qinghuangdao Education Bureau in Hebei Province. Her professional title is Senior Teacher.
Ms. Han started to practice Falun Gong in 1997. Before she started cultivation, she suffered from many diseases that couldn't be cured even after consulting many doctors. Once she started to practice Falun Gong, all her diseases miraculously disappeared. After experiencing the mighty power of Falun Gong, she strove to be a better person according to the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. She was always happy to help others and everyone felt that she was a good person. Ms. Han has obtained over 20 Certificates of Honor at both the provincial and municipal levels, and has given open lessons on the Qinghuangdao Televison Station. She has also helped to compile nearly 20 textbooks and has an outstanding record of academic achievement.
Persecuted for Appealing in Beijing
In October 1999, in order to tell the government and the people about the goodness of Falun Gong, Ms. Han went to Beijing to appeal to the government. She saw many practitioners being arrested as soon as they arrived at the Appeals Office, without being given a chance to clarify the situation. Ms. Han felt she had to go to Tiananmen Square to appeal. She was arrested while doing the exercises and detained for about two days in Beijing. She was taken to the 2nd Section of the Seaport Police Branch in Qinghuangdao and later transferred to the 1st Detention Center, where she was detained for a month. To try to force her to give up her belief, the officers tried handcuffing her hands behind her back, handcuffing her to a heating pipe, and forbidding her from using the toilet for a long period of time, but their tactics were unsuccessful. Later, they deceived her family members including her parents, husband, and her little boy into trying to pressure her to give up her belief, but Ms. Han remained firm. She was then taken to a brainwashing session.
Ms. Han has now been taken to the Forced Labor Dispatch Division of Beijing City, and the relevant authority has sent the sentencing announcement for two years of forced labor to Ms. Han's family.
