(Clearwisdom.net) Recently, some officials in Dazhou City have been conducting brainwashing sessions. They have abducted many Falun Gong practitioners from areas that include the Tongchuan districts of Wanyuan, Dazhu, Kaijiang, and Xuanhan. They then detained tbe practitioners in Longteng Village, Beiwai, Tongchuan District, Dazhou City, subjecting them to brainwashing. To prevent practitioners from practicing the exercises and sending forth righteous thoughts, they used various illegal methods to deprive practitioners of their freedom, including forbidding them to talk to one another other, to double-cross their legs or to fold their hands together [to prevent practitioners from assuming any position of meditation]. They monitored the practitioners day and night.
The persecutors have detained several practitioners, including Mr. Wang Haiquan, Mr. Hu Yongqiang, Ms. Yang Lan and Ms. Zhang Xueying since March, 2003; they have refused to cooperate with the their captors. Recently, they arrested several more male practitioners, including Yang Zhili, Yang Longhu, and Chen Bing. The practitioners were told that if they could not be "transformed" in three months, they would be sent directly to a forced-labor camp for the rest of their lives.
Yan Yonghe, the former Meishan City Party Committee Secretary, has been persecuting Falun Gong. Recently, he was promoted to be the Dazhou City Party Committee Secretary and started to hold brainwashing sessions to persecute Falun Gong practitioners just after he arrived in Dazhou. Zhang Weini is supervisor of the person responsible for the brainwashing sessions. She has published several articles slandering Falun Dafa, deprived practitioners' of their freedom, forced the practitioners' relatives to pressure the practitioners to give up the practice, threatened to fire practitioners and their relatives from their jobs and used various methods to persecute practitioners during their detention.
