(Clearwisdom.net) At 9:10 a.m. on March 15, 2007, the local court in Laiyuan illegally tried Dafa practitioner Li Yanping from Houquanfang Village. The prosecutor accused Ms. Li of committing a crime "against the CCP and government" because police had found copies of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party in her home. The prosecutor refused to admit her statement into evidence, that the police obtained their evidence by use of violence. Li Yanping's claim is true; she has three witnesses.
When Li Yanping proclaimed her innocence, saying she was merely practicing her faith and asking how to deal with the police violence issue, the court officials stopped her. She also stated during the trial that her health had deteriorated due to the persecution and that she could barely eat. The judge stopped her again. The trial adjourned in 40 minutes.
Nearly 100 Falun Gong practitioners went to the court for the trial. The courtroom was so full that many stood in the hallway. When Li Yanping was handcuffed and confined in the police car going to the detention center, many practitioners requested her unconditional release. Many women practitioners tearfully told the police the truth. Some officers were moved and listened carefully. The attorney finally asked the practitioners to let the police car go; it left among calls "Falun Dafa is good!"
Although the judge knows that all Dafa practitioners are innocent, he does not dare to release them due to pressure from the CCP. He said he "need(s) to ask for instructions from a higher authority." This is another demonstration of a trial being a mere formality or show. There is no true legal system in place in China. The CCP controls the police like dummies or robots. They cannot uphold the dignity of law, nor can they uphold their own dignity.
The Laiyuan Prosecutor's Office has sent seven Dafa practitioners to prison since 1999, charging them with "obstructing law enforcement with illegal activities."
