Since April 23, 2006, the National Security Team members of the 610 Office of Liaoyuan City illegally arrested over 30 Falun Dafa practitioners. The Municipal Police, Pi Fuguo, He Kun, and Hou Changzhou confiscated four computers, printers, and other personal belongings from Ms. Xiang Lijie and four other practitioners.

The police team members told the 610 Office, the National Security Team, and their supervisors at the police station that these practitioners were a "gang of anti-revolutionaries." They illegally confiscated assets worth 10,000 yuan, but reported them as 20,000 to 30,000 yuan to the provincial level government. The assets actually worth between 20,000 yuan and 30,000 yuan were reported at an inflated value of 50,000 to 60,000 yuan. The State Security Department urged them to conclude the case within a certain period of time after learning of this case. The provincial government attached a great deal of importance to this case, and asked Pi to report to them about the case every other day.

Pi, He, and Hou used all kinds of cruel punishments to obtain forced confessions from the practitioners. The confessions would gain these officers more rewards from their supervisors. Ms. Xiang Lijie was tied spread eagle to a bed. Then she was tortured until she developed serious urinary and bowel incontinence. They brutally force-fed the practitioners who were on hunger strikes. Pi and his cohorts ordered all police units in the city to arrest people so that they could reach the total number reported as "anti-revolutionists." They have adopted a policy that families of Falun Gong practitioners are suspects as well. If a practitioner is arrested, the homes of his or her family members and/or relatives are ransacked and the family members are interrogated. They arrest people at will without evidence. If someone is reported to be suspected of practicing Falun Gong, he or she will be immediately arrested. Even if one book, one picture of Teacher Li Hongzhi, or one Falun Dafa card is found or if someone just says "Falun Gong is good," he or she will be arrested. They never apply the human rights of freedom of belief and speech to Falun Gong practitioners. Those human rights that are granted in the Chinese Constitution are denied to Falun Gong practitioners. The Constitution means nothing in the eyes of law enforcers Pi, He, and Hou. They break the law and abuse human rights every day. Who is there to punish these people?

The April 23 mass arrest is over four months in the past, and the 610 Office has transferred all the detained practitioners to the Longshan District Procuratorate for trial. The Procuratorate sent all the practitioners back due to insufficient evidence. Doesn't this show that what the Liaoyuan City Police Department officials did was wrong? To this day they haven't even found one "foreign spy."

On the morning of May 26, 2006, Zhang Chuanhong, Director of Liaoheyuan Police Station, took over 20 people to arrest Falun Gong practitioner Me. Zhang Shunlong and others who had visited Mr. Zhang's detained brother, also a practitioner. Director Zhang Chuanhong grabbed Mr. Zhang Shunlong by the hair and started beating him. Several other police officers assisted. They smashed Mr. Zhang's head on the support beams of a bridge. Mr. Zhang was covered in blood. The police then tried to push him into a police vehicle, but he refused to cooperate with them and his legs stuck out of the vehicle. The police smashed one of his legs with the car door and broke it. Villagers standing by shouted at Mr. Zhang to give up and go with them, because they didn't want him to get beaten up. Once inside the vehicle, his head was shoved into the gap between the two car seats so that he could not move. Blood mixed with sweat dripped down his face. The scene was unbearable to watch. Mr. Zhang's wife, Lu Fengling, was also severely beaten and her nose was broken.

All of them were taken to Liaoheyuan Police Station. Mr. Zhang was detained on the third floor and interrogated by several dozen police officers. Around 10 a.m., he fell from the third floor. The police claimed that he jumped, but two people failed to prevent his fall, he was handcuffed, he had a broken leg, there were over a dozen officers monitoring him, and the window was very narrow. It seems highly unlikely that he even could have jumped. In all probability the police had a hand in this tragic occurrence. Seeing that he would not survive, the police tried to avoid being held responsible for his death.

At the hospital, Mr. Zhang was only given oxygen and blood. There were no other efforts made to save his life. Mr. Zhang could not speak, his breathing was labored, and his head was severely injured. On the morning of May 28, 2006, Mr. Zhang died. An autopsy was performed immediately and his body was cremated in spite of his family's protests. The police threatened his wife, saying, "Don't tell anyone about this. If you do, your whole family will be sent to prison." Mr. Zhang's wife cooperated for the sake of their two young children. The police asked Mr. Zhang's wife for money. When she told them that she did not have any, the police tried to pressure her into selling their motorcycle, but she refused.

Mr. Zhang Shunlong left behind his elderly mother, a wife, and two young children. There is now nobody to cultivate their contracted land, and they are in very difficult circumstances.

Pi Fuguo, He Kun, Hou Changzhou, Zhang Chuanhong, and others' crimes will one day be severely punished by the law.
