    Three Ranks of Servants established bases

    and illegally detained children (photos)

    In September 2004, local police in Laixi City of Shandong Province

    detected a production and training base established by the cult Three

    Ranks of Servants (hereinafter referred to as the "TRS") at Qian

    Liujiatun Village of Wangcheng Town, where four TRS members

    were found working in it and among them, two were children. The

    girl, named Luo Dan, was 14 years old and coming from Zhumadian

    City of Henan Province; and the boy, named Qiao Miao was only 12

    years old and from Hohhot, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region.

    These two children were illegally detained in the base, imbued with

    TRS doctrines and were forced to carry on heavy manual work in the

    fields.

    Police investigation revealed that Qiao Miao was born in the Dalate

    Banner of Hohhot. His mother named Ma Li, and his father named

    Qiao Jun. After his parents got divorced, Qiao Miao lived with his

    granny. Ma Li was a TRS member who ranked "Co-worker" in the

    cult organization. Ma took her son away from her mother-in-law by

    cheat when the boy was just seven or eight years old, and send him

    to a TRS training base at Shunyi County in Beijing at first, and one

    year later transferred the boy to TRC Weihai Base for "training".

    After a police rack-down at Weihai City, Qiao Miao was finally

    transferred to TRS Laixi Base. But up to now, the whereabouts of

    Qiao Miaos mother remained a mystery. The other child, Luo Dan,

    was abducted from home and transferred several times before finally

    arriving at the Laixi Base. And information of her parents was not

    available.

    To avoid being punished, head of the TRS Laixi Base constructed a

    basement under the house (see picture 4). Tunnel of the basement

    extended to a pigpen outside, and outlet of the tunnel was covered

    up with pig feed. Chimney in the yard served as an observation post

    (see picture 2). Each TRS member had only one contact, and the ins

    and outs of each member were not allowed to ask about even when

    the members worked together.

    After arrival at the Laixi Base, the two children on the one hand

    were brainwashed with TRS doctrines and on the other, were forced

    to carry on physical labors such as feeding pigs or toiling in the

    fields etc., together with other adult TRS members who, according to

    police source, also engaged in sewing and stitching (see picture 3).

    The Base was totally isolated from the outside world, and only a few

    specially designated persons were allowed to get out. The two

    children stayed in the yard all day long or worked at dirty rooms. A

    slightest breach of the cult rule would bring about severe

    punishment: they were whipped, some times even hung upside down

    from a roof beam. When police came to their rescue, the two

    children were found shabbily dressed, absent-minded and full of

    bruises and scars around the body. They could not remember where

    they came from or the names of their beloved ones. Their MDI was

    about the level of a several-year-old baby.

    Policemen took pains searching for Qiao Miaos grandmother, and

    finally succeeded (see picture 5). So Qiao Miao re-united with his

    granny.

    Explanatory Note

    The cult Three Ranks of Servants was established by Xu Wenku

    (also named "Xu Shuangfu"), a native from Zhenping County of

    Henan Province. Members of the cult were separated into six status

    levels: the Primary Servant (also called "Uncle"), the Secondary

    Servant (or "Little Uncle"), the Slave Girl, the Watch Dog, the Co-

    worker, and the Pillar. Tightly organized, their cultic activities once

    in a time spread out into 18 provinces, autonomous regions and

  • 7/30/2019 kaiwind--Three Ranks of Servants established bases and illegally detained children (photos)

    4/9

    municipalities directly under the Central Government. Xu borrowed

    the form of address from the Holy Bible, claimed to be "Primary

    Servant", and wantonly apotheosized himself. Followers took Xu as

    a god. Xu and backbones of the cult fabricated and spread the

    fallacies that, before Year 2000 there would be seven calamities in

    the world, the Day of Judgment was coming; that Jesus would bring

    followers into Paradise while putting those disobey into Hell; that

    the TRS was the sole Righteous Way to follow because it would

    some day "exercise control over the whole world" together with

    Jesus.

    Members of the cult were rigidly stratified, each group having a

    specific work division. For instance, the Co-workers were TRS

    members who had already renounced the family, and they were

    further divided into two groups, the Front Co-worker and the Rear

    Co-worker. Front Co-workers were actually missionaries whose

    duties included recruiting followers, expanding the organ and

    supervising local Pillars. The Rear Co-workers were also called

    "Coolies" who engaged in productive work and had no pay. They

    belonged to the lowest level in terms of status grade, and every day,

    got up at three oclock in the early morning, toiling in the fields, and

    did not go to sleep until eleven oclock in the midnight. If a Co-

    worker did not work well, or failed to accomplish a given task, he

    would be severely punished by a senior Co-worker. And the

    common punishment was flogging.

    In recent years, Xu and the backbones of the cult swindled a lot of

    money from innocent people under the camouflage of "donating

    personal property to God"; and they engaged in other criminal

    activities which disrupted social order and violated the law.

    According to insiders, a "Fa-protecting Squad" was established, and

    group members who went against TRS doctrine or became "traitors"

    would be savagely punished or even be killed.
