(Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Tian Ling, a practitioner from Wuhan City was
abducted along with several other practitioners at a local truth-clarification
materials production site on July 8, and was taken to Xiaogan No.1 Detention
Center. Her whereabouts, kept secret until recently, have now been confirmed to
be the Xiaogan No.1 Detention Center. The police had confiscated Falun Dafa
books, flyers and brochures, and equipment from the production site. At the
detention center, Tian Ling went on a hunger strike to protest the illegal
treatment. She then suffered from a high fever that lasted for a long time. A
liver disease, which had disappeared after she learned Falun Gong, also
recurred.
The detention center refused to release her and even reported her to the higher
authorities in order to claim credit; saying they would sentence her to a long
prison term.
Tian Ling's husband and mother-in-law both practice Falun Gong. Her
mother-in-law has been abducted several times. Their home has been ransacked and
they have also been monitored by the district branch of the Public Security
Bureau and local neighborhood committee. Tian Ling and her husband Fu Lulin were
forced to become homeless after being continuously harassed by the police for
going to Beijing to appeal for an end to the persecution of Falun Gong.
On April 12, 2001, they were all abducted by the Municipal Public Security
Bureau and put on trial. Despite the court's unlawful way of handling the case,
due to the lack of evidence, the trial could no longer proceed. However, the
court still sentenced Tian Ling, two months pregnant at the time, to 8 years in
prison and Fu Lulin to 10 years. It seemed the trial was nothing more than a
mere formality.
Several months after the sentencing, Tian Ling was allowed to go home, but
only under surveillance, as she had just had the baby. When their daughter
Tiantian was only one year old, the Public Security Bureau threatened to take
Tian Ling into custody. Tian Ling was forced to leave home to avoid persecution.
The baby is being looked after by Tian Ling's mother. She is now three years old
and has never seen her father. She has not seen her mother since she was a
one-year-old infant.
Tian Ling's mother-in-law was not allowed to see her son because she also
practices Falun Gong. The family has been torn apart.

We hope that kindhearted people will help rescue Tian Ling so she can once again be with her daughter and family.
