希望海内外各方的正义组织和个人，能多多伸出援手、不懈地发声，直到真相大白、8孩母亲得救、施暴者被惩罚。

我在写一封公开信，一点点写一点点贴，大家群策群力

To the United Nations Human Rights Council:

We are calling on the council for an urgent investigation into the human trafficking, sex enslaving, and a heinous human rights violation case. A woman, who is believed to be Ying Li, was a victim of human trafficking since 12, and has been a sex slave of a man who not only raped her but also had 8 children with her. She is seen in the picture locked up with a dog chain, covered with a thin coat in winter, in a scruffy hut, in Xuzhou, China. The horrid fact is, Ying is not the only sex slave in the village. Evidence shows that there are at least several other women in the same if not worse situation.

只是本着严肃认真的态度，提醒一下现在身份还并没有确定，所以不能言之凿凿而已。

again，不管她是不是李莹，不管她是不是四川人，不管她是不是精神病患者，不管她是不是被拐卖的，她都不应该被锁起来虐待！就凭这一点，警察就应该立案调查而不是包庇施暴者。

被铁链锁着、受冻挨饿，在不自主 不自由的情况下，被迫生育8个或者更多的孩子，这不是性奴是什么。性侵她、虐待她的人都应该抓起来送监狱。

根据大家的意见修改了。另外，这个版本不是给特定机构的，所以可以在论坛（比如Reddit）或者社交媒体上贴，希望能被人权组织或救援组织 pick up

We are seeking help from the international community to save this woman of a human trafficking, sex enslaving, and heinous human rights violation case, out of Xuzhou, China. A woman, who is believed to be Li Ying, was a victim of human trafficking since 12, and has been a sex slave of a man who not only raped her but also had 8 children with her. She is seen in a picture locked up with an industrial chain, covered with a thin layer in winter in a scruffy hut. The horrid fact is, Ying is not the only trafficked sex slave in the village. Evidence shows that there are at least several other women in the same if not worse situation.

Around Jan 29, an internet post drew the attention of the public. A man, Dong Zhimin, is showing off his 8 kids and government subsidy he received on Tik-Tok. People noticed that in the background, there's a woman shackled in a squalid place, a hut with no isolation in winter. Dong claimed his wife, the woman in the picture, is mentally sick. The incident soon raised internet outrage. Is it legal to chain up any individual in captivity? Was she mentally unwell before they were married, in which case the woman can be considered as nonconsensual? And most importantly, how did she end up there?

Two days later, the local government issued a statement saying that Yang Xia (the woman) was a local villager with mental disease, who was married to Dong in 1998. "There was no abduction and she is locked up to keep people safe." said the statement.

Soon, a grassroot volunteer organization discovered that a girl who was abducted on the way to school and claimed missing has undeniably identical features to Xia. The girl named Li Ying was taken in 1996 at the age of 12, and is believed to be a human trafficking victim. Her family is still looking for her. With the look, the year missing, and all other details match, it is widely believed that Xia is Ying.

People who are related to the area or who have obtained information about the village stepped out with more information. The girl was "purchased" by Dong's family from the traffickers, and used by the father and 2 sons sexually, one of which is Dong. Some local officials participated in the raping as well. Xia, obstinate and valorous, fought back with teeth and kicks. In order to make her more "obedient", Dong knocked off her teeth and nipped off the tip of her tongue. One person also said that Xia was drugged to lose her voice.

The local government then issued another statement, saying they have compared with the DNA pool and Xia is not a registered missing person.

By then, Ying's mother has requested a DNA comparison with Xia, which is never granted. Xia is kept in a place no outsiders can approach to get a sample.

More truth swarmed in, stupefying the already gasping public. Villages around Xuzhou have a history of being one of the destinations of human trafficking. In the 80s, during the year 1986 to 1989, there were 40,000 human trafficking victims bought by the villagers as sex slaves. A rough calculation shows, today there are around 20,000 sex slaves in those villages. Human trafficking in Xuzhou has an industrial complex behind it. Unmarried guys can pay around 3,000 to 6,000 Yuan (around $500 to $1,000) to get a girl. The local government then would create a new ID for the girl, and too marriage licenses. The new household then can claim government subsidy. Of course, sex slaves do fight back. They will get beaten up, drugged, or inhumanely tortured as a result. There's another woman "living" next to Xia's, is crawling on the ground in a more grubby hut. Her knees were knocked to pieces from an attempted run-away. Another one is hung to the beam, whacked every other day. Some of them went insane in the living hell. About half of the rescued sex slaves are diagnosed of having mental illness.

Another question also emerged among all. There's a ten-year gap between Xia's 1st son and 2nd son. Xia has 7 boys and 1 girl, youngest 1 year old. The chance of getting such biological probability is thin. People suppose Xia has/had other kids. They could be girls that were "dealt with", following the prevailing gender discrimination across rural areas in China, the same discrimination causing the gender disproportion in China leaving men out number women by 30 million in rural areas, as girls are aborted, drowned after birth, or abandoned during infancy. The surplus group serves as terminal consumers of the human trafficking business. But no one could get a chance to talk to Xia. The village is sealed.

It is palpable by now that the Xuzhou local government has served as a shield in the human trafficking business. On the provincial level, neither Ying's birth place nor Xuzhou's governing province has uttered a sound despite the fuming lambasting from the public.

On Feb 7, the central government semi-officially stated that Xia has been identified. She is a woman of 52, from Yunnan Province, who was taken to treat her mental disease 20 years ago and got missing. She has no living relatives.

The public is giving backlash. Apparently, the numbers don't add up. There's no photographic or witness evidence either.

Till then, Ying's mother's DNA request is still not granted.

To date, Xia is segregated and confined to a mental institution guarded by armed police force for "national security reasons", no volunteer or social worker allowed to visit. The truth is prevented to be found out by the state apparatus.

According to all the information gleaned so far, Xia is not simply a psychotic woman who is mistreated. The whole occurrence is a consortium of crimes on multiple levels with unfathomable magnitudes. Xia was abducted, human trafficked, raped, sexually abused and assaulted, used as a reproductive machine, manhandled, and tortured. She was a prey of the human traffickers, her purchaser family of 3 males, local authorities who participated in raping and giving green light to the business chain, higher up government who makes up a story to deny her identity, and the state government that censors public opinions.

We want to ask a few questions:

- Why isn't a DNA comparison approved?

- Why isn't Xia permitted to talk to anyone outsider?

- Why isn't the local government answering on what base did they issued the press releases that are contradicting each other?

- How many more women like Xia are there in the same village? The same city? The same province?

- What is being done to help them?

In so, we urge the international community to help us volume up. We feel for Xia. Any human being's heart would pain at such hideous crime. She is our daughter, sister, cousin... She was us. Remember, she, a sweet teenage girl much loved and cared for, was on her way to school one day, suddenly blacked out, and woke up in a living hell, with no one there to help. The state apparatus is used to protect perpetrators. The system is failing her.

We invite you to join us, to ask for truth, to ask for justice, and to demand that the Xuzhou government give Li Ying's freedom and life back.

这么高的楼和热度，正义的主题，竟然至今没有被飘蓝。

希望早日解救被锁住的这些女人。如果借机能有一个全国性的严打拐卖妇女儿童活动就更好了。强国的名称太讽刺了。

1998年江苏省内很多高校，

大三大四的体育选修课，有气功课，

教授的就是法轮功，

很多老教授也跟着练，

他们如果不搞那个北京的集会，

根本就不会有镇压的事情发生，

很多国内出来的人的问题是：

1. 对以前的事情怎么回事完全不清楚

2. 没有能力重塑自己的价值观，审视过去学到的东西

最后就成了一群笑料了

法轮功跟其他的什么中功、香功，非马列的各派宗教，非共党管辖的组织机构等等，在中国的命运最终都一样：只要是势力规模大到一定的程度，土共必定会罗织出各种罪名将其铲除或削弱。

这么一群劣等基因，就配让tg统治啊。给他们民主自由，上来不得先立法买卖妇女合法化。

鲜花招引蜜蜂 粪坑招引苍蝇。国民特性和政府的建构是相辅相成的。
