The Truth and People's Hearts
A middle school student in China tells this story: My father quit smoking and drinking after he practiced Falun Gong, and as a result our family saved lots of money. My aunt and uncle used to fight all the time, but they stopped fighting after practicing Falun Gong, and the family atmosphere is much better now.
I often see Dafa practitioners printing out truth clarification materials and making VCDs using their own money.
The "Self-immolation Incident" in Tiananmen is a staged act. How can a true Falun Gong practitioner do such a thing? These are all traps that were set to slander Falun Gong and deceive the people.
Facts of the Persecution
I am a Dafa practitioner in Hebei Province. Soon after the persecution began in 1999, my husband and I were both arrested and illegally detained in Yanshan County's Detention Center. I was released after holding a hunger strike. My husband and I were both fired from our jobs. Our home was ransacked and our belongings were looted. I was sentenced to one year of forced labor. The police brutally tortured my husband for eight months and sentenced him to seven years in jail. He is currently detained in the Baoding City Jail.
I am a Dafa practitioner in Dalian City and used to be a teacher. In September 1999, the school suspended me for practicing Falun Dafa and took away my salary. My home was ransacked many times, and I was detained and sent to a brainwashing class in a drug rehabilitation center. I was extorted, force-fed and brutally beaten. On August 1, 2000, I was illegally sentenced to one year of forced labor and sent to the Dalian Forced Labor Camp, where I was forced to do slave labor and brutally tortured. The guards shocked me with electric batons, kicked me, beat me with rubber sticks, whipped me with metal wires and choked me by forcibly submerging my head in water. Under tremendous pressure, I wrote a repentance statement against my will, and here I solemnly announce its annulment. In mid-April 2002, the police again kidnapped me from school and tried to send me to a labor camp. I broke out of the police department with righteous thoughts and have left home ever since to avoid further persecution.
Dafa practitioner Su Xueling from Hanshan District, Handan City in Hebei Province distributed truth clarification flyers along with her daughter in late 2002. Her daughter was arrested, and Su Xueling was forced to leave home. In late October 2002, officers from the Hanshan District Police Department kidnapped Su Xueling on her way home. She was brutally beaten and passed out from torture. She was later sent to the No. 1 Detention Center in Handan City. Su Xueling held a hunger strike and became extremely weak. Before the New Year's Day, Xu Xueling was illegally sentenced to three years of forced labor and was sent to Shijiazhuang City Labor Camp to be further persecuted. The phone number of the Hanshan District Police Department office: 86-310-3125370.
News From Abroad
Voice of America February 24th report: Nearly 80 Falun Gong practitioners were rejected entry at the customs of Hong Kong airport and deported back to Taiwan. The Mainland Affairs Council in Taiwan and Falun Gong practitioners in Taiwan protested. The Mainland Affairs Council urged the Hong Kong government to prohibit similar incidents of "violence and violation of human rights" from taking place in the future, in order to avoid destroying the harmonious relationship between Hong Kong and Taiwan and the international image of Hong Kong. The Falun Dafa Association held a press conference immediately after this incident.
