Yu Xianfeng (male), is around 37 years old, and is the Party Secretary of a village. His phone number is 86-451-3880388.
Since July 20, 1999, Yu Xianfeng has been persecuting Falun Dafa practitioners, following Jiang's Criminal Regime. He harasses practitioners at their homes, watches practitioners in person and instructs his people to monitor practitioners' activities where they live. In early 2001, together with the village head of Minfeng Village, he stopped a practitioner on his way to distribute truth-clarifying materials. They body searched the practitioner, and confiscated over 1600 flyers, which he burned later in his office. On March 21, 2002, he went to the practitioner's home and forcibly conducted a search. He took away his Essentials For Further Advancement II and threatened the practitioner. On April 1, 2002 when Yu Xiaofeng was having a meeting at the local township government, he, together with Song Xueliang, a clerk from the local "610 Office", reported on Dan Deyi, a practitioner who went to ask for his Falun Dafa books that Yu Xianfeng had confiscated.

[Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province] Falun Dafa Practitioners Are Tortured in the Harbin Female Medical Center For Drug Addicts
Over 80 Falun Dafa practitioners were beaten unconscious many times in the Harbin Female Medical Center For Drug Addicts. Before the practitioners came to, police in the center forcibly pressed their fingerprints or footprints on a ready-made "statement of guarantee" [A statement to declare that he or she is remorseful for practicing Falun Gong and guarantees not to practice Falun Gong again, not to go to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong, and never again associate with any Falun Dafa practitioners.]. These practitioners have made solemn declarations that all such statements are null and void. Police in one team of the center are extremely vicious. We don't know yet what means they have employed to persecute Falun Dafa practitioners. All we know is that healthy practitioners always are left on the verge of death after being tortured by this team.
Police known to be responsible for the persecution are:

She was kept in the Chongwenqu Detention Center, where she went on a hunger strike for about ten days. She was later released unconditionally because she was found during a medical examination to have severe health problems.
On April 25, 2002, in an attempt to arrest Jiang Pai, police from the Changxi Police Substation in the Longfeng Area of Daqing City broke into Jiang Pai's home without any legal process. Since Jiang Pai was not at home, the police failed to arrest her. Since then, Jiang has become destitute and homeless to avoid being persecuted. However, the police keep harassing her family without exception, even on January 31, 2003 (the Lunar Chinese New Year Eve) and on February 14, 2003 (the Chinese Lantern Festival, a family reunion festival). They attempted to learn her whereabouts from her family members by means of deception and threats. The authorities from the Heat and Power Plant have phoned her family members many times in attempts to find her. Her family members are suffering under great pressure and misery.
