1. [Shulan City, Jilin Province] Falun Dafa Practitioner Zhang Jinguang Detained at Yinmahe Forced Labor Camp Past the Expiration of His Term

Mr. Zhang Jinguang is a Falun Dafa practitioner from Liangjiashan Township of Shulan City. By late 2001, he had been sentenced to two years of forced labor for validating Falun Dafa in Beijing. The term initially imposed on him should have expired on January 8, 2004. However, he is still detained at Yinmahe Forced Labor Camp in Jiutai City, Jilin Province.

In late January 2004, when Zhang Jinguang's disabled wife and 13-year-old daughter visited him at the forced labor camp, they saw that several of Zhang Jinguang's front teeth were missing and that deep scars were left on his forehead as a result of repeated beatings. Since his wife is disabled, Zhang Jinguang's family members are currently unable to support themselves.

3. [Yintong County, Jilin Province] Police Frantically Retaliate Against Falun Dafa Practitioners

Ms. Guo Chunyan, a Falun Dafa practitioner from Yintong County was abducted on April 27, 2004. With righteous thoughts, she escaped from the clutches of evil, after which she exposed the persecution of detained Falun Dafa practitioners, which caused the police to frantically retaliate. On June 2, 2004, the police once again arrested Guo Chunyan and unjustifiably took her to the detention center. Officer Zhou, from the Zhengyang Street Police Substation, while holding the notice of Guo's forced labor sentence, cruelly remarked, "You cannot leave this time. See? Here is your notice of forced labor." Guo Chunyan walked up to him, grabbed the notice and tore it into pieces. In return, Zhou violently slapped her across the face.

Guo Chunyan then solemnly warned him, "I'll sue you for sure."

Zhou replied deviously, "Who would be your witness?"

"Everyone here saw it," Guo Chunyan said calmly. The police later took her to the forced labor camp, but due to the unqualified medical examination results, the labor camp refused to accept her.

Righteous thoughts enabled Ms. Song Shuqin, a Falun Dafa practitioner from Sandao Township, to also walk out from the den of evil.
