(Minghui.org) Recently, police of Beichen district used deceitful measures to arrest Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Lü Guifen. They then began colluding with Beichen District Prosecutor's office and the court to give her a heavy sentence.
In March 2012, Lü Guifen was arrested from her home by the Beichen district police and was detained at the police detention center. There she experienced inhumane persecution causing her immense physical pain and heart problems. She was taken to the prison hospital for treatment. Later, the police had her family pay 18,000 yuan and Lü Guifen was released.
On December 5, 2012, when the Beichen Public Security Bureau notified Lü Guifen she was required to have a medical check-up, her son went with her. On their way, the police tricked her son into getting out of the police vehicle and sped away and she was unlawfully detained again.
A few days ago, the Beichen prosecutor claimed that Lü Guifen will be sentenced to eight years in prison.
Falun Dafa Rescued Ms. Lü
Lü Guifen, 60, is immensely grateful to Falun Dafa because prior to learning the practice she had experienced a difficult life. Her husband had suddenly passed away twenty years ago in 1992 and her mother-in-law died three months later. At the time her grief was so severe that she almost had a nervous breakdown and her physical health also declined. Ms. Lü developed heart disease, mental illness and other diseases. On top of all this, she lost her job, rendering her be unable to make a living.
When all hope seemed lost, she encountered Falun Dafa. Not long after practicing Falun Dafa, all of her diseases went away, and she hasn't had to take any medicine since. More importantly, it gave meaning to her life and she became a healthy, optimistic, and positive person who based her life around the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. She has re-established her family with her son admitted to one of the top universities. All her family members were grateful to Falun Dafa. Her arrest and the persecution she suffers is devastating to them.
