Facts of The Persecution

1) Government officials in Xincheng City, Liaoning Province are organizing an increasing number of brainwashing programs to persecute Dafa practitioners. Currently, these officials are operating illegal brainwashing classes in Zhoujia Village, Sijia Township. Some Dafa practitioners in that area have been forced to leave their homes to avoid being forced into these brainwashing classes.

2) Officials from the Heilongjiang Province "610 Office"* arrived in Daqing City from September 20 to September 23. They plan to stay in Daqing for a period of time to intensify the persecution of Dafa practitioners in the Daqing area.

3) Since July 20, 2003, the "610 Office" in Xingyi City, Xuzhou County, Jiangsu Province has been continually searching for and arresting local Falun Gong practitioners. They have arrested eight Dafa practitioners so far, and have confiscated all of their property. Local practitioners Qiao Weidong, Dai Jintang, and others from Xingyi City have been tortured so brutally by the "610 Office" that these practitioners are still in extreme pain.

4) The heartless officials from the Panshi "610 Office" of Jilin Province illegally organized a brainwashing class on October 10, 2002. They abducted twenty-eight Dafa practitioners. Because the practitioners gathered in a group and concentrated on sending forth their righteous thoughts, they succeeded in resisting the ill effects of the brainwashing. Therefore, two weeks after the brainwashing program started, guards began ignoring the activities of the practitioners. The practitioners could freely study the Fa, do the exercises, send forth righteous thoughts, and clarify the truth.

* "610 Office" is 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.
