(Clearwisdom.net) On the morning of August 5, 2008, officials from the 610 Office, the State Security Team, and Guojiadian Police Station drove to Banjia Village, Guojiadian Township, in about five police wagons. They broke into the homes of Falun Gong practitioners and illegally arrested Ms. Liu Zhenduo and her husband, Mr. Lu Xiyao. Ms. Liu managed to escape. However, her whereabouts is unknown.
The police broke into Mr. Lu Xiyao's home, ransacked his whole house, and took away his computer, printer, all his Dafa books, VCDs, musical instruments, and many other personal belongings. Since no one was at home at that time, the police also searched the homes of Lu Xiyao's neighbors to find the wanted couple. They jumped over the fence into the yard of one of his neighbors and arrested Mr. Lu there. They also searched the neighbor's entire house and made a big mess. Later on, the police harassed his family several times. As a result, Lu Xiyao's wife didn't dare to return home.
On August 1, 2008, Ms. Lu Xiumin, a Falun Gong practitioner, heard that Mr. Li Yufu, a fellow practitioner in the same village, had been arrested. Ms. Lu decided to go with her family to visit him at the Dianzi Brainwashing Center in Laizhou City. She was then "illegally detained" and hasn't yet been released.
Mr. Li Yufu has been held in the Laizhou City Detention Center since August 5. The guards do not allow his family members to visit him or to send him clothes. When he was being arrested, he didn't get to put on a coat or his shoes. The arresting officers picked him up and threw him to the ground so violently that his back was injured.
