In mid-August, a Falun Gong materials storage site was sabotaged in Zhengzhou City, Henan Province. Two Falun Dafa practitioners were illegally taken to the No. 1 Detention Center in Zhengzhou City.

From the end of July to the beginning of August, members of the Jintang County "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] illegally arrested seven Falun Dafa practitioners. The practitioners are being illegally held at the Jintang County Detention Center.

On August 26, 2003, numerous officers from the criminal investigation section, mob control brigade, and police stations in Jianchang County, broke into Falun Dafa practitioners' homes. Several Falun Dafa practitioners have been illegally arrested. Among those arrested are: Mr. Wang Xingyu (pronunciation) and Ms. Song Chun. The names of five other practitioners are yet to be learned. It has also been said that the practitioners have been forcibly sent to the Xingcheng Brainwashing Center in Huludao City, which will be investigated and confirmed.

According to reliable sources, members of the "610 Office" in Fushun City plan to hold a brainwashing class on September 1. A campaign to abduct Falun Dafa practitioners is to get under way.

Members of the "610 Office" again illegally arrested Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Yu Jinghe from Longjiang County. He was sent directly to the Fuyu Forced Labor Camp. Mr. Liu and his wife were arrested together last time. Both of them went on a hunger strike because it was the only means left to them to appeal to the authorities who were mistreating them. They were released not too long ago and had barely recovered their health which had declined during their hunger strikes. This time, the police tricked him so they could rearrest him. His wife was not aware of his arrest until notified by police to send clothes and other necessities. More details are forthcoming.

Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Wang Yue lives at the residential quarters of the branch campus of the Fushun Petroleum Institute. Around 5:00 a.m. on July 28, 2003, the police illegally arrested her. On August 11, she was taken to the notorious Masanjia Forced Labor Camp. (This is the only information available regarding Ms. Wang's arrest.)

Falun Dafa practitioner, Ms. Niu Honglian, lives in the 3^rd Residential Committee on South Huayuan Street in Dongzhou District. Around 7:00 a.m. on August 15, 2003, Ms. Niu and another practitioner, Liu, were distributing Falun Gong truth clarifying materials when informants called in police. Both practitioners were illegally arrested and are currently being held in the Jiangjun Shizi Building.

Mr. Hou Lijun, 32, was formerly a security employee in the Taiyuan Industrial and Commercial Bank. In October 2002, he and another Falun Dafa practitioner, Wang Zhiming, went out to clarify the facts about Falun Gong. Officers Yang Zhigang and Li Zhufeng from the criminal investigation brigades at the Wanbolin Division of Police Department illegally arrested them. Mr. Wang Zhiming has since died from police brutality. Currently Mr. Hou remains in custody at the criminal investigation brigade at the Wanbolin Division of the Police Department, and his family has been denied any visits.

Gongzhuling police started another round of brainwashing classes twenty days ago. So far over twenty people have been abducted for brainwashing.

Mr. Liu Zhaohong was formerly an employee of the Bureau of Hydraulic Power. On May 12, 2003, he was trapped and captured by members from the "610 Office." Mr. Liu refused to give up practicing "Truthfulness-Benevolence-Forbearance." As a result, he was tortured. Mr. Liu stayed on a hunger strike for over thirty days in protest, and currently his life is in imminent danger. Both the forced labor camp and the detention center refused to take him in, given the critical condition he was in. However, members of the "610 Office" not only refused to release him or grant his family members any visits, but transferred him to the Zhangjiatun Brainwashing Class for further persecution as well.

Members of the Guolin Residential Administrative Office forcibly collect signatures and fingerprints from Falun Dafa practitioners.

Chongzhou Comprehensive Control Office located Falun Dafa practitioners already evicted from their homes and forcibly gathered fingerprints.

Informants turned Ms. Song in to the police while the National People's Congress and the National People's Political Consultative Conference were convening [in Beijing last March]. The police illegally searched her home and took away her personal savings and other valuables. Ms. Song was held in custody and illegally sentenced to one year of forced labor. She is being held in the Heizuizi Forced Labor Camp. Her husband, who is unable to care for himself, has been left at home alone unattended.
