(Minghui.org) A woman who was arrested in 2019 for her faith in Falun Gong recently revealed that she had four tubes of blood drawn and underwent a comprehensive physical examination following her arrest. One of her cellmates was once a nurse at an armed police hospital. The nurse said that forced organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners was an open secret when she worked there.
Ms. Li Ruihua, a native of Inner Mongolia in her 30s, worked in Beijing before her arrest. Her husband, Mr. Wu Rui, also in his 30s, is a native of Yichun City, Jiangxi Province. He worked as a training education teacher in Shenzhen City, Guangdong Province before he was arrested at the same time as his wife.
Ms. Li went to Shenzhen to visit her husband in May 2019. Agents from the Luohu District Police Station broke into their home on May 28 and seized them.
Ms. Li recently revealed that she was taken to a hospital for a comprehensive physical examination after her arrest. She was then admitted to the Luohu District Detention Center. A few days later, she was forced to give four big tubes of blood without being told why.
She asked other detainees if they had also been subjected to such a large amount of blood draw and comprehensive physical examination. They all said no.
Ms. Li was later assigned to another cell, where a cellmate immediately realized the reason behind her suspicious blood draw. This cellmate, a former armed police hospital nurse, said it was probably to see if Ms. Li was healthy enough to be the next victim of the communist regime’s forced organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners. The nurse cellmate also noted that forced organ harvesting was an open secret in the hospital.
Ms. Li and her husband were indicted by prosecutor Liu Xiaona of the Yantian District Procuratorate on November 29, 2019. The Yantian District Court sentenced both of them to two years with a 3,000-yuan fine on April 1, 2021. Their appeals were soon rejected and they were ordered to serve time at the Yantian District Detention Center.
The couple were released on May 29, 2021.
The horrendous crime of the state-sanctioned forced organ harvesting was first revealed in March 2006, when a woman claimed that as many as 4,000 Falun Gong had been killed for their organs at the hospital in which she had worked. She also said that her husband, a surgeon at the same hospital outside the northeastern city of Shenyang City, Liaoning Province, had disclosed to her that he had removed cornea from the living bodies of 2,000 Falun Gong practitioners.
Since then, mounting evidence from witnesses and Chinese physicians has revealed that thousands of Falun Gong practitioners have been killed for their organs, which are sold and transplanted at enormous profit in the transplant trade.
