1. Unlawful Arrests, Torture and Illegal Prison Terms

When the CCP and Jiang Zemin's gang began their unlawful persecution of Falun Gong on July 20, 1999, Yan Haidong and his parents went to Beijing to exercise their constitutional right to appeal to the State Appeals Office. As soon as they arrived at Tiananmen Square, the police arrested them by force and took them to the Tiananmen Square Police Station where they lured Yan to tell their home address. Next the police transferred them to Baoding City's Beijing Office. The police from Laishui County violently beat them up when they picked them up. They took Yan and his family to Laishui County's CCP School. As soon as they got out of the car, they were beaten up by hired goons with clubs, belts and boots. Their faces became swollen beyond recognition and their bodies were covered with blood and bruises. Afterwards, they were locked in an old shack surrounded by tall weeds taller than an adult man. At night, they were forced to sleep on the ground. They were given meager rations twice a day. In addition, they were forced to work as slaves during the day. They were also subjected to beatings and torture with bamboo sticks, clubs, belts, and whips made of telephone wire. The goons even burned them with lit cigarettes. The goons also forced them to watch video propaganda against Falun Gong. All practitioners there constantly faced physical and mental torment.
