The Family Members of Dafa Practitioners Detained and Persecuted in Jilin Prison Use Legal Means to Appeal
(Clearwisdom.net) Last week in Jilin Province, family members of Falun Dafa
practitioners sued Jilin Prison for maltreatment of Dafa practitioners. They
brought an accusation to several departments of the Provincial Procurator's
Office, related to the case of a practitioner who was confined in a solitary
compartment for three years and not allowed visits from family members. After
investigation by the procurator's office, the educational cadre and a number of
the prison guards in Jilin Prison were replaced.
Recently, the family members went to Jilin Prison again, and the attitude of
the new educational cadre and prison guards was noticeably better. The
educational cadre said, "The Dafa practitioners are too frail right now. You can
visit them next month." The family members replied, "You want us to see them
after they recover somewhat from the abuse suffered in prison, so that we will
not have any evidence with which to accuse you. Is that it?" The educational
cadre didn't answer.
Currently, the family members of Dafa practitioners are in the process of
suing for the release of the practitioners and for due compensation. Posting date: 8/26/2004 |
