[Jiaozuo City, Henan Province] Falun Dafa Practitioners Are Illegally Arrested

Wang Junying (female) and Yan Aiying (female) are being illegally detained in the Shibalihe Forced Labor Camp once again. They have already served one and one-half years of illegal detention in a labor camp.

Zhao Zhe, former employee of the Commercial Bank, had no choice but to become homeless in order to avoid being illegally arrested from his home. At the end of 2002 he was illegally arrested and is currently being detained in the Shibalihe Forced Labor Camp.

In November of last year, a Hongxiang couple was arrested and detained. Wang Juan (female), a practitioner working in their store, was also illegally detained and has not been released. The store's driver, a non-practitioner, has been harassed many times by the authorities.

[Linxia County, Gansu Province] Practitioner Jiao Tianyun Is Forced to Leave Home Just After Release from Sixteen Months Detention in Forced Labor Camp

Linxia Practitioner Jiao Tianyun was illegally detained in a forced labor camp for 16 months because he remained firm in his cultivation of Falun Dafa. Han Dailong, Commissioner of Linxia County, Li Wenzhong, Party Secretary of Xianfeng Township, and Qi Xianjun, Head of Xianfeng Township, illegally fired Jiao from his job to intensify the persecution against him. Facing constant harassment for remaining resolute in his commitment to practice Falun Dafa, Jiao Tianyun had no choice but to leave home to avoid arrest. He has no income or other means of support while the police relentlessly search him out.

[Beijing] Jiang's Regime Drains the Entire Country's Resources to Persecute Falun Dafa

According to a trusted source with information from the Beijing Financial Bureau, Beijing alone has already spent over 400 billion Yuan [some 50 billion US dollars] in persecuting Falun Dafa. Think about it, what has Jiang's regime been doing these past three years? What a wasteful and ridiculous expenditure of funds!

[Wuhan City, Hubei Province] Practitioners Liu Limin and Fang Xinghua Are Once Again Illegally Arrested

Wuchang practitioner Liu Limin (female) was illegally detained in a forced labor camp. She has not been released even though her the term of her sentence has passed. In January 2003, the Municipal Police and the "610 Office" [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] forced her into brainwashing in Yangyuan, in the Wuchang Area. They deprived her of sleep and arranged for over a dozen collaborators [practitioners who have renounced Falun Dafa due to extreme torture and brainwashing] to take turns torturing her. Consequently, Liu Limin's legs became so swollen that she could not stand, her eyes became extremely swollen, and she became incontinent, soiling herself at night. Even the collaborators were complaining that they couldn't bear her suffering. However, Liu Limin never yielded in her belief. After more than ten days of persecution in the brainwashing class she was secretly transferred to an unknown location. We are very concerned about her present health condition.

Fang Xinghua, an employee of the Yangyuan No. 4 Railway Hospital, is being detained again after publishing a solemn declaration [a person's public statement declaring to the world that whatever he or she has done or said under duress or deception that was against Falun Dafa is null and void].

[Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province] Practitioners Huang Xiangwei, Chi Yumin and Shan Yufeng Are Illegally Sentenced to Forced Labor Camp

Huang Xiangwei (male), from Pingfang District, was illegally sentenced to three years in a forced labor camp.

Chi Yumin (female) and Shan Yufeng (female) were each illegally sentenced to three years of forced labor prior to the 16th Party Congress.

[Gansu Province] Student World Slanders Falun Dafa And Deceives Pupils

Student World, a magazine hosted and published by the Gansu Education Press, published an article in its "News Window" column in the September 2002 Issue (A, 85th Issue), ostensibly reporting on the "Xin'nuo No. 1 Satellite Event" that occurred in June of 2002. The article viciously slanders Falun Dafa and distorts the facts in an attempt to mislead and poison its student readers -- especially pupils who are too young to tell right from wrong.
