[Sichuan] Sixty-year-old female farmer Wang Yuru from Qu County, Sichuan Province, was beaten to death

Wang Yuru, a sixty-year-old farmer from the south side of Qu County, was sent back to Qu county detention center in late January of this year because she went to Beijing to appeal and tell the truth of Falun Gong to the Chinese government. On February 4, the police forced her to write a promise stating that she would never practice Falun Gong. She firmly refused this request.

As a result of this, the police beat her badly, forcing her to write the promise. Faced with the evil despotic power, Wang endured the huge pain and told them that she would still practice Falun Gong even if she were beaten to death. Later, Wang was really beaten to death.

After examining Wang's body, the legal medical expert ascertained that the death was due to an injured heart caused by beating. Now Wang's family preserves her heart.

There were two other practitioners who were persecuted to death at Qu county detention center. Before Wang's death, farmer Miu Qun was suffocated to death because the police inserted the pipe into her trachea when force-feeding her.

Liu Xianzhu, a farmer of over 50 years old also from the south side of Qu County, went together with Wang Yuru to appeal. He was beaten so cruelly that his entire lower body was disabled and he lost the ability to control his urine and to take care of himself.

The government officials of Sichuan Province did not even pay any attention to these crimes.

[Shandong] The town government that beat Falun Gong practitioner Tian Xiangcui to death attempts to cover up the truth

After the news came out that Falun Gong practitioner Tian Xiangcui from Fengyi town, Longkou city, Shandong Province, was beaten to death by the town government, the police station and the government tried to cover up the truth. They disregarded the facts and tried to shift the responsibility by forcing practitioners to write statements claiming that Tian was not beaten to death by the government. Moreover, practitioners were asked to sign the statements and leave their fingerprints on it, otherwise they would be detained for no reason.

The government and the police station are planning on posting this so-called evidence on the Internet, attempting to prove to the world that they have nothing to do with Tian's death.

[Guangzhou] A practitioner from Cuotou prison in Guangzhou was driven to suicide

According to the news from Guangzhou, since October 1, over one hundred practitioners went to Beijing to tell the truth yet the government arrested them for no reason. Their whereabouts are still unknown.

According to the news from Cuotou prison in Guangzhou, in order to implement the orders from Jiang Zemin, the prison attempted to transform practitioners and forced them to write statements declaring that they regretted having practice Falun Gong and that Falun Gong is bad. In addition, the prison deceived practitioners by saying that writing the promise could get them released. Some practitioners swallowed the bait yet they were not released. Instead, they were directed to persuade practitioners who were firm in cultivation to give up their practice. The police also isolated practitioners who were soon to be released and forced them to rebuke Dafa. The practitioners refused to do this so the police tormented them by pepper spraying (note: spray substance like mace) them.

Falun Gong practitioner Zhu Derong was forced to quit his job because he practiced Falun Gong. He could not afford the education expenses for his two sons. In order to force him to give up cultivation, the police threatened to throw him in jail. Under enormous pressure, Zhu committed suicide and left a posthumous statement listing the real reasons that he was persecuted. The police confiscated the statement for no reason.

Despite the pressure, Guangzhou practitioners still hold a rock-solid heart in cultivation. They step forward to distribute and post Dafa flyers with wisdom and they are determined in assisting Teacher in the world and advancing towards Consummation.

[Chongqing City] Falun Gong flyers appeared at Chongqi Medical University

This practitioner saw many students standing aside and talking to each other. One of them said loudly: "Wow! Falun Gong is really great!" After some inquiry, the practitioner found out that several Falun Gong practitioners distributed a large number of flyers that disclosed the evil conducts of Jiang Zemin to the students in the evening classes. Students passed them around and read with great interest. However, the university leadership was terribly frightened and brought the policemen in. After hearing the story, this practitioner started widely posting the Dafa materials he brought with on bulletin boards, on classroom doors, in the dining room, and even in the teachers' residential area. After all the materials were distributed, the practitioner silently retreated.

Police learned about the gathering and sent people to wait outside the door. The practitioners knew that the police's conduct was illegal, so they stayed inside for six days until the police couldn't stand any more and began to smash the door. One practitioner jumped down from the balcony of the sixth floor with ease and was not hurt in the slightest. The police witnessed the power of Dafa with their own eyes, and were completely shocked and exclaimed: "I don't have the courage to jump like that."

Over 60 practitioners were detained in detention centers, and 20 were given administrative detention. Up to the time of this news, another 10 have been sent there.

During the next several days, over 50 more practitioners were arrested. In addition to those 24 practitioners who went to Beijing on a peaceful appeal, a total of more than 100 practitioners are now detained in the detention center.

One practitioner sternly questioned the several leaders of his work unit while they met him before he was arrested: "You are all veteran members of the party and veteran cadres. After so many years of education from the party, now which of you can volunteer to leave your positions when the work unit is over staffed? But we Falun Dafa practitioners can!" At that moment, everyone on the spot became silent. After a while, one leader even asked: "May I take a look at your book?"

He was robbed of his money during the trip and his bicycle's tires went flat as well. Without money, he had to beg along the way and rode that bicycle for four days and five nights to arrive in Beijing. It was already midnight when he reached Beijing. He slept by squatting on the ground facing the wall and then went straight to Tiananmen Square early next morning.

[Chengdu City] List of evils that persecuted Dafa practitioners

Falun Gong practitioners in Chengdu provided the following list that represents the cruelest people and working units that have persecuted Falun Gong. This list may provide evidence for those individuals or agencies that want to further investigate these persecutions.

Feng Jiuwei: the assistant chief of the 1^st section of Chengdu Police Department, director for the special group of Falun Gong case in Chengdu.

This person is extraordinarily cold and unemotional, and is very cruel when attacking people. He sent hundreds of Dafa practitioners into labor camps personally. Under his direction, all police substations and security units in Chengdu cruelly beat up and searched practitioners' homes, confiscated their assets and demanded huge amounts in fines. Ms. Zhang Aili, simply because she read Zhuan Falun when she was in the "Transformation Class" in Yingmenkou police substation, was sentenced to one year in labor Camp by Feng. Ms. Zhang is now jailed in Nanmushi Women Prison in Zizhong City.

Zhai Yongchuan: director of Baohe town police substation, he was commended as "one of the Ten Outstanding Youth" in Chengdu in 1999.

Under his leadership, police in Baohe town cruelly beat up and inhumanly tortured Falun Gong practitioners who would not write the pledge. Among the practitioners that were persecuted, many of are seniors in there 60's or 70's. He also forced practitioners to shut down their businesses and confiscated their family properties. He raised great wrath there due to his brutal and lawless activities.

Hao Weiyuan: Secretary for the Political and Law Committee of Chenghua District, Chengdu City

He asked police in his district to carry out very cruel persecution against Falun Gong practitioners. As long as they do not write the pledge, they will be indefinitely locked up in the detention center (by law, one cannot not be kept in the detention center for over 15 days). Ms. Liu Can, principal of Guoguang School, was continuously detained by Hao for more than 180 days.

Zhai Yongchuan is a hatchet man for Hao Weiyuan.

Jin Shicheng: the leader of Shuangliu County

Among county officers in Chengdu, he is the cruelest in persecuting Falun Gong practitioners. He always says, "As long as you continue practicing, we will break you down politically, economically and spiritually.""

Under his leadership, government officers at all levels in Shuangliu County treated practitioners very cruelly. For those practitioners who cannot afford the fines, officers would go to confiscate their personal belongings in their homes.

In Shuangliu County, many practitioners are being sentenced to jail or being kept very long at "Transformation Classes" and detention centers.

Jitou town police station (a subdivision of Wuhou District Police Division in Chengdu)

Practitioners Liu Zhenhai, Peng Liang and some other practitioners in Jitou town were kept in an abandoned power supply plant for about 8 months for the so-called "Transformation Class", where males and females share the same room. There are no toilets or any sanitary facilities, and the room stinks badly.
