On May
19, 2006,
six to seven police broke into my home and searched for the book 'Nine
Commentaries on the Communist Party'. They didn't find the book they wanted but
found several Falun Gong books. They put me in the detention centre in Haidian
District, Beijing.
I was locked in a small cell (about 220 square feet) with 30-35, sometimes over
40 people. I stayed in the detention centre for over three months before I was
transferred to the labor camp.
Even when I
was in the labor camp, I could feel from the attitude of the guards that they
got pressure from the outside world. One guard even mentioned to me once that
international human rights organizations cared about me.
Only after I arrived in the US did I learn that Amnesty members
around the world had written me hundreds, if not thousands, of letters. All the
letters were impounded by the authorities. But I believe that the pressure from
international society, of course including the letters from Amnesty members,
helped me a lot.
