Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Luo Xirong, in her 50s, lives in Qianchuan Street, Huangpi District, Wuhan City, Hubei Province. She was arrested while clarifying the truth near the Datan-Sanliqiao suburban area on February 4, 2007. She was under the custody of the State Security Division of Huangpi District Police Department and was taken to the Wuhan City Wujiashan Women's Detention Center on the afternoon of the same day. On the afternoon of the next day, the Huangpi District 610 Office Head, Hu Shuzh (male), ransacked her home.
Ms. Luo went to Beijing three times from the end of 1999 to the beginning of 2000 to speak out for Falun Dafa. She was arrested and taken back twice, and each time she was detained for more than two months. In August 2000, she was arrested and taken from her home and forcefully taken to a brainwashing class held in the National Guard Training base. She was detained here for more than 20 days. She was forced to do heavy labor under the baking sun and write the Three Statements.
In the autumn of 2001, Ms. Luo was arrested again while passing out truth clarifying materials in the countryside. She was sentenced to 18 months of forced labor and detained in the Wuhan City Hewan Drug Rehabilitation Center.
In the autumn of 2003, Ms. Luo Xirong was forcefully taken to a brainwashing center for one month.
In the seven and a half years of persecution, Ms. Luo has cumulatively been detained for more than 600 days, which has caused both her family and herself deep pain, both mentally and physically.
