Finally, they forced me into their car. Then they all got into the car and sandwiched me there. Only one man sitting to my right was a 610 official; the rest were all from Yinan High School. One of them was Xia Lipeng, my history teacher, two were physical class teachers; and the other two were school administrators, including Guo Shujun.

In the car, I was crying and asking them why they wanted to be pawns of the “610 Office” and why they violated the law. They suddenly burst out with frenzied laughter and clapping. They said, “Go ahead and sue us. Think you can win? We wholeheartedly welcome it.”

[FULL STORY]

My name is Nie Yingchao. I am a 10th grade female student. I used to be in the class of Literature and Arts (Classroom 4) at the Yinan County 2nd High School (Wolong Campus) in Shandong Province.

I have been practicing Falun Gong with my parents since I was in elementary school. I used to suffer from pneumonia and ear infections; through practicing Falun Gong, my health has been improved greatly.

Since July 20, 1999, when the persecution of Falun Gong started, local authorities have ransacked our home, imposed fines on us and arrested us. They extorted more than 10,000 Yuan from our family alone.

Near the end of 2004, when I was in my 10th -grade class, one evening during the self-study session, my teacher Wei Lei came to me with anger and flew into a rage. He wanted me to quit school. I told him that I would never quit school. Teacher Wei then slapped my face and announced to the class that nobody was allowed to discuss Falun Gong. Wei Lei brought me to the office of the 10th-grade administrator, Guo Shujun. Guo Shujun then told me I was expelled from school. I told them there was nothing wrong with my belief in Truthfulness, Compassion, and Forbearance, nor was there anything wrong with Falun Gong. The next day, I went to school as usual.

In March of 2005, two high school administrators took me out of the physical education class and ordered me into their office. The Director of Yinan County's "610 Office" was there. He questioned me about my parents' names, home address, and other my family's information. Someone was taking notes throughout our conversation.

One week later, on Thursday, March 10, 2005, at around 11:00 a.m., I was in my history class. The history class teacher, Xia Lipeng, told me that he wanted to discuss something with me in his office. I was deceived into following him downstairs. Suddenly I saw some "610 Office" deputies and Principal Gao Yinghua waiting beside a sedan at the gate of the school compound. I stopped in my tracks and immediately realized that they were trying to arrest me, so I turned around and walked briskly back to my classroom.

Teacher Xia Lipeng came back and quietly told me that they just wanted to take care of some business. I loudly replied, "I won't go with them. I just want to continue with my class, and you should not be their accomplice to persecute me." Xia left. Then the administrator of the 10th-grade came in and tried to drag me out of the classroom. He asked me why I did not follow the school's orders. I said, "I won't follow your instructions if they are wrong. Please get out of the classroom and don't collaborate with the 610 Office." The administrator left after seeing my firm stance. Later, another administrator came and tried unsuccessfully to force me out. In the process, the desk was bumped and books fell to the floor. Some of my classmates stood up and came to my assistance. They said, "We are in class now. Whatever it is you are trying to do, do it after class." Xia scolded them, "It is none of your business, stay out of it!" After a little while, the administrator brought several 10th-grade physical class teachers and together they dragged me out of the classroom and down the stairs. More teachers came to join in the effort to force me downstairs. The 10th -grade administrator covered my mouth with all his strength to prevent me from screaming for help.

Finally, they forced me into their car. Then they all got into the car and sandwiched me there. Only one man sitting to my right was a 610 official; the rest were all from Yinan High School. One of them was Xia Lipeng, my history teacher, two were physical class teachers; and the other two were school administrators, including Guo Shujun.

In the car, I was crying and asking them why they wanted to be pawns of the "610 Office" and why they violated the law. They suddenly burst out with frenzied laughter and clapping. They said, "Go ahead and sue us. Think you can win? We wholeheartedly welcome it."

I asked them why they arrested me. They said they were just following instructions from the "610 Office." The school principal, Gao Yinghua, gave the orders. They said, "You won't have a chance to go back to school as long as you practice Falun Gong."

This was how they expelled me from school. When I woke up the next day, I could hardly move from the pain all over my body.

On March 12, the "610 Office" sent someone to my home in an attempt to arrest me and put me in the brainwashing center, but they could not find me. The "610 Office" officials came to my home several times to try to arrest me, but I was not home, they could never find me.

On March 15, they arranged for plainclothes policemen to keep watch at each end of the street where my home is, as well as at the village market where they usually try to find practitioners passing out flyers exposing the persecution of Falun Gong.

From March 11 to March 15, the "610 Office" tried many tactics to arrest me and take me to the brainwashing center. Their schemes involved the county "610 Office," the township government, and the village government. I was therefore forced to leave my home in order to remain free and avoid being arrested and brainwashed.
