Another Lie Exposed -- how communist authorities fabricated a malicious charge against Falun Gong

Zhang Qing-he, male, 31 years old, was a worker in the third company of Heat and Electricity in the Mu-dan-jiang City, Hei-long-jiang Province. His family lives in the building # 13 of the Railroad Farm Field. In order to cure himself of various chronic diseases such as anaemia and neurasthenia, he had taken the traditional Chinese medicines for 8 months. Later, he started to take self-made medicines because he could not afford medical expenses. However, he did not know the pharmacology. Out of ignorance, he mixed two traditional Chinese medicines together. After he took the mixed medicines, he would become mentally unstable and unable to control himself. One day, after he took the self-made medicines, he became suicidal. His mother and his sister found out and attempted to stop him from committing suicide. Out of insanity, he injured her sister and killed his mother.

After Zhang Qing-he was arrested by the Ai-min public security bureau of the Mu-dan-jiang City, the authorities forced him to allege that he had practiced Falun Gong and that he killed his mother and injured his sister because he became insane after practicing Falun Gong. They also promised him that he would not be sentenced if he claimed that. Therefore, Zhang Qing-he had to say what the authorities wanted him to say in order not to be sentenced.

The following is the conversation in a detention center between Zhang Qing-he and a practitioner (nowadays, many practitioners are detained in detention centers as a result of persecutions):

"You claimed that you had practiced Falun Gong. Then please try to recite some poems in 'Hong Yin' (a collection of poems by Mr. Li Hongzhi, which can be easily memorized by a genuine Falun Gong practitioner)."

Zhang Qing-he, "I cannot recite it. I have never learned Falun Gong."

"Then why did you claim that you have practiced Falun Gong?"

Zhang Qing-he, "They forced me to say that. They told me that they would not sentence me if I said that."

The communist authorities thus fabricated such a malicious charge against Falun Gong in order to fish for political capital. They had also disseminated such a groundless charge on Radios, TV, and Newspapers. This has severely damaged the image of Falun Gong.

I appeal to all international organizations to help investigate all the accusations made against Falun Gong and to expose the schemes of a few individuals in the Chinese government.
