On April 17, 2006, Falun Dafa practitioners Yang Xiuwen, Li Bo and Chen Liguo from Baishan City in Jilin Province were illegally arrested by police officers Lei Ying, Lu Dehe, and others. Witnesses saw the police officers ransacking Mr. Yang's home. They also saw blood on the back of Mr. Yang's head and on his back, and noted that his hair was very messy. When he was first taken to the detention center, his face was bruised from being beaten. While he was detained at Baishan City Detention Center, Mr. Yang went on a hunger strike for over 20 days. Police officers Li Yongqiang and Yuping incited criminal inmates to force-feed him, and tied him to a death bed. His right arm was dislocated as a result of the torture, which caused his muscles to atrophy. He became very weak and emaciated. Chen Liguo was forced-fed and tied to a death bed for three days. Li Bo was also tied to a death bed for half a day. Currently, they are still detained at the Baishan City Detention Center.
In November 2006, Yang Xiuwen, Li Bo, and Chen Liguo were sentenced at Badaojiang District Court to nine, five, and five years of imprisonment respectively. The judge who presided over their trials was Yu Changcheng, the jury members were Wang Yonglin and Gao Yuanhao, the secretary was Zhang Dahai, and the Badaojiang District Procuratorate officer was Lan Jian. Before the trial began, the practitioners were not allowed to hire lawyers nor notify their family members. There were over 50 police officers on site to guard the court, and the trial was carried out secretly. There were also people working for the local community as escorts in front of the court to identify if there were any Falun Gong practitioners in the area, out of fear that practitioners would expose their evil deeds.
Yang Xiuwen, Li Bo, and Chen Liguo were opposed to the verdict, so they appealed to the middle court. In January 2007, the Baishan City Middle Court upheld the original verdict and those who participated in the trial were: Cao Shanbao, deputy jury members Song Yonghui and Lin Mei, and secretary Zhang Chunming. The practitioners were charged because Falun Gong truth-clarification materials and printing equipment were found in their residence. However, the content of the materials was not mentioned. Actually, the content of the materials was information exposing Jiang Zemin's regime for framing and persecuting practitioners, good people who believe in Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance, for the past seven years. Under the instigation and direction of the assistant to the secretary of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Political and Juridical Committee Du Qingyou, who was the person in charge of the 610 Office, officers from the police station, the Procuratorate, and the Juridical and National Security Departments knowingly violated the law. Over the past few years, 20 practitioners have been persecuted to death in the city, over 20 practitioners have been sentenced, and nearly 200 have been sent to forced labor camps for detention. The fine imposed on them and assets confiscated from them over the past years have amounted to over millions of yuan. People who were involved with persecuting practitioners have accepted countless bribes; in addition they don't pay for what they eat and take, and they ask for whatever they want for free. Thousands of families have had their homes ransacked and been harassed by police officers, and their family members have been taken away, which resulted in the breaking up of families. Many elderly people were frightened to death; several children have lost their parents and have been mentally traumatized.
