1. [Changchun City, Jilin Province] Urgent Rescue of Arrested Practitioners in Changchun

We learned on March 18 that several practitioners were illegally detained in the No. 1 Detention Center of Changchun City. Visiting and bringing clothes to these practitioners are not allowed. The details of the persecution are still unknown. The police plan to secretly sentence these arrested practitioners. It is believed that some of the practitioners could not bear the torture and told the police names of other practitioners. As a result, more practitioners have been arrested. We hope all practitioners who have seen this message send forth righteous thoughts to help in obtaining the release of the detained practitioners.

2. [Jiutai City, Jilin Province] A Dafa Practitioner Tortured to Death in Yinmahe Forced Labor Camp

According to reliable sources, a Dafa practitioner was tortured to death in Yinmahe Forced Labor Camp. In trying to cover up their crimes, the persecutors have blocked the information and do not allow visitors to the site.

3. [China] Clarifying The Truth Face to Face, A Practitioner Obtains Back the Pay With Dignity

After I was released from a forced labor camp, I clarified the truth to people around me for a long time. Although there were many difficulties, I firmly persisted in doing so. I clarified the truth to my work unit managers, supervisory government officials, and even the mayor by directly talking to them or writing them letters . At the same time, this practitioner sent forth powerful and firm righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil behind the "610" office [Note: The "610 Office" is an agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems] and related persecutors. Recently, the practitioner was finally paid the 16-month salary that the work unit owed him/her (the 16-month period the practitioner was detained for appealing in Beijing). The practitioner used all the money (more than 10,000 Yuan) [Yuan: Chinese dollar. The average monthly salary of an urban worker in China is about 500 Yuan, but only 200 Yuan for a rural worker.] to clarify the truth about Falun Gong.

4. [Beijing] Dafa Banners And Words Appear in a Chengyuan Residentiale Area in the Fengtai District

Around 4 AM on April 25, 2002, some practitioners hung 6 Dafa banners and wrote Dafa words near the road that leads to the Tuanhe Forced Labor Camp and Xinan Forced Labor Camp. The banners read "Falun Dafa is good," and the words were "Falun Dafa is good," "Falun Dafa is a righteous cultivation way," "Return the clean reputation to Dafa," "Return the clean reputation to our Teacher," "Falun Dafa is suffering a great injustice," "Life needs 'Truth, Compassion, Forbearance,'" "Stop persecuting Falun Gong," "The self-immolation incident in Tiananmen Square is a show directed by Jiang Zemin and Luo Gan." The banners and words are only about a mile from the labor camps.

5. [Jilin Province] Practitioners in Dehui City and Jiutai City Many Banners Are Hung Before World Falun Dafa Day

6. [Suihua City, Heilongjiang Province] A 17-Year-Old Practitioner Is Beaten in Suihua Forced Labor Camp

Inside Suihua City Forced Labor Camp, a 17-year-old practitioner named Xu Minghong is illegally detained in Team No. 4 of the Second Group. One day in December 2001, Xu tore down the poster that slandered Dafa. Labor camp officer Zeng Lingjun, officer Li Jian, and a guard tortured Xu with electric batons for his action. Xu Minghong was tortured so badly that he cried out loud and bumped his head against a compartment, which caused his head to bleed. However, the police guards did not stop torturing him. After he returned to the cell, someone asked him if he had been tortured. Fearing that his fellow practitioners would get into trouble, Xu said no. He did not tell anyone about his experience of being tortured until December. His fellow practitioners were all indignant about the brutal torture of a 17-year-old child.
