(Clearwisdom.net) (Minghui correspondent report from Guangdong Province) Ms. Liang Shaolin was a senior engineer at the Maoming Petrochemical Corporation in Guangdong Province. She has suffered repeated persecution because she practices Falun Gong. On September 24, 2009, 17 policemen from the Maoxi Police Department broke into her house by breaking down her double doors with an electric saw. She was then taken to the Maoming City Brainwashing Center.

Prior to this event, Liang Shaolin was severely tortured in the Shanshui Forced Labor Camp in Guangdong Province. In 1999, she was sentenced to a forced labor camp for two years because she went to appeal for justice for Falun Gong in Beijing. Because Ms. Liang refused to give up her practice of Falun Gong, she was not released until March 2005. Under tremendous pressure, her husband divorced her and Ms. Liang was expelled from her work unit.

On this occasion, policemen confiscated her personal belongings, including cash, a computer, printer, a cell phone (which her sister had given to their mother), and a bank deposit book that belonged to her sister. The violent actions frightened her parents, who were in their eighties. The neighbors were also terrified.

Currently, Ms. Liang's parents and sister, who hurried back from another city, are not allowed to see Liang Shaolin.

We call on people from all over the world to pay close attention to Liang Shaolin's situation, and ask for help in securing justice for Ms. Liang.

Ms. Liang Shaolin is fifty-eight years old. Her sister Liang Yufeng, also a Falun Gong practitioner, lives in Boston. After she started practicing Falun Gong, Liang Shaolin benefited both physically and spiritually. She received the Excellent Worker Award, and was praised in every work unit she participated in. However, after the persecution began, in September 1999 she was detained by her work unit because of her belief.

In October 1999, Liang Shaolin went to appeal in Beijing, to let the government know the facts about Falun Gong. On her way to Beijing, she was detained by policemen and released only after she went on

a hunger strike for seven days. Soon after, Ms. Liang was detained again. Without any legal procedures, she was sentenced to two years in a forced labor camp and taken to the Shanshui Labor Camp in Guangdong Province.

In the Shanshui Labor Camp, Liang Shaolin was once kept alone in a dark room full of mosquitoes and insects for fifteen days. She still refused to give up her practice, and firmly stated her belief that it is not wrong to follow the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. In retaliation, the guards forced her to squat over ten hours a day over a long period of time. They attempted to brainwash her by showing fabricated videos that attacked Falun Gong. Ms. Liang protested by going on a hunger strike. Finally the officials gave up trying to brainwash her. In March of 2002, while she was performing the exercises, she was beaten by inmates under the order of Gao, director of the Third Division, and director Wu.

Following torture sessions that were conducted beyond the original term sentence in Shanshui Labor Camp, Ms. Liang was taken back to the Maoming Brainwashing Center. She was brutally tortured by Zhang Chongyun, Shen Didi, Wu Wenqiong and others. She was often handcuffed to a window and locked inside a dark room with closed windows on hot summer days.

However, Liang Shaolin never gave up her belief. As a result, she was once again taken to the provincial brainwashing center in Shanshui. Later, she was taken back to the Maoming Brainwashing Center.

During the six years of terror under the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), Liang Shaolin has been persecuted in both Maoming and Shanshui. Due to her consistent and righteous belief in Master Li and Dafa, she was released on March 31, 2005 after her family and other organizations' repeated requests.

As a Chinese citizen, Liang Shaolin has the lawful right to appeal against injustices. However, she was sentenced to forced labor for two years, and her term was extended for over five years with no reasons provided. Once again, she was illegally taken from her home, while CCP members confiscated her personal property. This property might be utilized to fabricate evidence to support further persecution of Ms. Liang.
