On June 29, 2003, Dafa practitioner Mr. Du Weifeng, 28 years old, took two Dafa truth-clarifying letters to a post office. On the way there, officers from Lingyuan City's Xijiao Police Precinct arrested him and afterwards sentenced him to three years of forced labor. He was detained at Chaoyang City's Xidayingzi Forced Labor Camp. During his detention, policemen shocked him with electric batons and locked him up in a small cell for over twenty days. Due to this physical and mental anguish he experienced a mental collapse. On March 29, 2004, after nine-month of detention, policemen from the labor camp sent him back home, in very poor health.

It has been reported that practitioner Qi Fengjie, who was arrested at Goubangzi last month, was tortured until suffering a mental collapse in the Masanjia Forced Labor Camp.

After officers from Shulan City's Police Department arrested practitioners Fu Hongwei, Zhao Jiran, Song Bing, and Song Yanqun on November 26, 2003, Zhang Zhimin, the female mayor of Shulan City, in collusion with policemen Xin He, Xiao Yong, Li Jiazhe and Li Zhuo, brutally tortured these four practitioners by hanging them up and force-feeding them hot spices or mustard powder in an attempt to force practitioners to denounce Falun Dafa.

These four practitioners are currently being held in Shulan City's Detention Center. The Shulan City Court dared not open the trial to the public according to judiciary procedures. Instead, they sentenced practitioners secretly. Song Bing was sentenced to 14 years of imprisonment; Song Yanqun 12 years; Fu Hongwei 10 years; Zhao Jiran 10 years. The four practitioners appealed and staged a hunger strike to protest the persecution.

I am a Dafa practitioner from Changchun City. As I was injured, I was held at Changchun City's Forced Labor Camp Hospital. There I saw practitioners Ms. Wang Yuhuan and Ms. Zhao Xiaoqin who were arrested by people from the No.1 Section of the city's police department. After Wang was arrested, policeman Zhang Zhong and others brutally beat her and tied her to a "Tiger Bench" for five days. They hung her up and tortured her with all kinds of methods, such as pouring ice water on her head, blowing cigarette smoke into her eyes and nose, and poking her ears. Wang Yuhuan has been tortured severely and looks emaciated. She suffered from kidney disease and breast cancer. Ms. Zhao Xiaoqin had surgery on her head due to injuries received during the brutal torture, and she is in a coma. Both practitioners are currently being held at the labor camp hospital.

Practitioner Ms. Zhu Fenglan, in her 60's, was a retired worker from Harbin City's Storage Battery Factory, and lived in the factory residential area on Xianfeng Road, in the Nangang District, Harbin City. Zhu Fenglan had previously suffered from tuberculosis. In February 1999, after she had started to practice Falun Gong, her serious tuberculosis was cured.

On November 5, 2000, Zhu Fenglan went to Beijing to tell the government of her physical improvement, and that Falun Dafa is good, but she was arrested for doing so. After being held for a week in Beijing she was later transferred to the No.2 Detention Center in the Daoli District, Harbin City where she was detained for over 70 days and suffered tremendous physical and mental torture. Her husband and daughter borrowed over 7,000 Yuan (1) to give to relevant personnel and the detention center. Personnel from the detention center didn't release her until she was forced to write a so-called "Guarantee Statement" promising she would not practice Falun Gong anymore, which was against her will. Since then her family members didn't let her practice for fear that she would be arrested again.

After being tortured in the detention center, being extorted several thousand yuan and not being allowed to practice the Falun Dafa exercises, she couldn't take the pressure, even though she had regained her health from practicing Falun Gong. Her tuberculosis recurred. She was hospitalized many times but eventually passed away in March 2002.

(News from April 27, 2004)

At around 4:00 a.m. on April 27, 2004, a taxi driver reported Dafa practitioners Shen Ruihua and Jia Jingwen from Jinzhou City to police while they were hanging up Dafa banners. Both were put into a detention center. In order to protest the illegal detention, they staged a hunger strike after their arrest. At present, Jia Jingwen has been sentenced to forced labor at Jinzhou City's Forced Labor Camp. Shen Ruihua has been on a hunger strike and is now so weak that s/he can't walk by her/himself. Police even sentenced Shen Ruihua to forced labor. While knowing the Masanjia Forced Labor Camp wouldn't accept her/him, they still refuse to release Shen Ruihua. Right now, Shen Ruihua is in an extremely dangerous condition.

It's said that another practitioner, Liu Wansheng, from Jinzhou City who was arrested on April 15 is also being held at Jinzhou City's Forced Labor Camp. He and Jia Jingwen are still staging hunger strikes.

Prior to April 25, 2004, police in Guan County, Shandong Province arrested Dafa practitioners Zhang Fenghuan, Dong Fangyun, Dong Fangmei and ransacked their homes. They stole Dong's computer, copy machine and some Dafa books. Dong Fangyun's husband and daughter, who are not practitioners, were arrested as well but were released two days later. Details about Dong Fangyun and Dong Fangmei are unclear. Zhang Fenghuan is on a hunger strike to protest the persecution.

Dafa practitioners Gao Diansheng from Tianjia Town, Panjin City, worked as a cook. He is kind and considerate. When he worked temporarily at Lantai Hotel, he won appreciation and praise from his boss and colleagues, because he was upright, worked hard and wholeheartedly, and never considered his own loss or gain.

At 6:00 to 7:00 p.m. on April 24, 2004, three plainclothes police from Panjin City's National Security Bureau broke into Lantai Hotel and took Gao Diansheng away from the kitchen. At the same time, they ransacked the storage room of the hotel and turned things upside down. They also ransacked Gao Diansheng's home, took away Dafa books and materials and related things for validating Dafa.

The next day, police from the National Security Bureau went to Lantai Hotel again and took away Gao Diansheng's newly bought motorcycle. Now Gao Diansheng is being held at Panjin City's Detention Center, and has been suffering persecution for nine days. His wife and a five-year-old boy are left at home without being taken care of.

Dafa practitioner Ye Ximing from Xi'an Township, Dawa County, Panjin City, was again arrested for painting Dafa signs. Due to the information blockade, the whereabouts of Ye Ximing are unknown. Following is more information regarding the persecution in this area: The facts regarding policeman Zhang Mingjiang's brutal abuse have been exposed. He is the director of Dawa County's Xi'an Police Precinct, Panjin City, Liaoning Province who has savagely abused several Dafa practitioners in violation of the Chinese constitution. Zhang Mingjiang, was not repentant, however, but personally went to the Dawa County Police Department to request an escalation of the persecution.

At 3:00 p.m. on April 10, 2004, near Dehui City's east crossroads bridge, several policemen from the Changchun City Police Department and from the Dehui City Police Department surrounded the residence of Dafa practitioners Ms. Wang Di, Mr. Sun Dawei and Ms. Zhao Jianjuan. They blocked the entrance and pounded on the door to break into the house. In order to avoid illegal arrest, the three practitioners chose to jump from the fifth floor. Sun Dawei suffered head injuries and fractured ribs. Wang Di's legs suffered open fractures. She also sustained a compressed lumbar vertebrae fracture. Zhao Jianjuan's ribs were fractured. It was learned that the three Dafa practitioners were sent to Dehui City's Central Hospital on that day. On the second day they were sent to the Changchun City Forced Labor Camp's Hospital.

Wang Di was injured so severely that she was extremely weak and could not move. She couldn't take care of herself. In spite of that, she was still handcuffed on a bed when she got intravenous injections. Police even left her handcuffed at night. It was reported that in order to resist the persecution, Wang Di kept shouting, "Falun Dafa is Good," "Falun Dafa is the Righteous Fa," and she requested her unconditional release.

Two weeks later, Dehui City Police Department personnel deceived Wang Di's father that they would release Wang Di and needed his signature. But when they sent Wang Di back home, what they gave him turned out to be a file for being bailed out for later trial. Furthermore, policemen gave no reason to Wang's family for their change of mind. Currently, Wang Di cannot even turn over on her own. She completely depends on her family for all her needs and care. A large sum of money is need for her treatment. When will she be able to stand up or recover? Her aged parents and relatives are very anxious.

It was heard that Wang Di was brought back from the Changchun City Forced Labor Camp's Hospital by people from the Political and Security Section of Dehui City's Police Department, but it was actually her cousin Liu, the Guangming Police Precinct chief, who sent her back home. When Wang Di entered the village, many villagers and relatives went to see her and all urged Wang Di's family to bring the criminals to justice.

Jilin Province Prison blocks all communication from getting in or getting out. They didn't allowed Dafa practitioners to see their families to prevent the truth from getting out. It was said by someone who knew the inside story that as each Dafa practitioner arrived at the prison, the policemen would instruct the most vicious prisoners to beat him. Some were even beaten so severely they remained unconscious for three days. Dafa practitioner Guo Peijun's back were seriously injured. Dafa practitioner Xin Yuanjun was detained at the prison's hospital for persecution. Dafa practitioners detained there were all very firm in their belief, although they were not allowed to read Master's new articles.
