Facts of the Persecution

1. Dafa Practitioner Mr. Yu Lei Illegally Sentenced to Five Years in Prison in Shanghai

Dafa practitioner Mr. Yu Lei, 43, was illegally sentenced to five years in prison after being detained in August 2002. He is now being held at Division 5 of the Tilanqiao Prison in Shanghai.

The guards started to brutally force-feed him on December 22, 2004.

2. Exposing Crimes at the Wancun Women's Forced Labor Camp in Shandong Province

From February 16, 2004 to February 20, 2004, practitioner Yang Wenjie persisted in Dafa practice, and the guards locked her in a restroom. She subsequently protested, and guards dragged her into the office, where she was beaten and kicked. Section head Chen finally gave the order that Yang Wenjie be moved out of the restroom, but the guards are still holding other practitioners in the restroom.

In March 2004, a group of guards led by division head Li Aiwen force-fed a newly arrived practitioner. In late February 2004, practitioner Gao Guiying from Weihai was again subjected to brainwashing and was deprived of sleep night after night. She held a hunger strike to protest the persecution. The perpetrators detained her in solitary confinement and later took her away. During 2002 and 2003, the practitioners were forced to get up at 5:30 a.m. to wrap cotton threads and trim the seams on pants. They were not given any break during the day and were forced to work until they finished the assigned workload late at night. Their hands were swollen and bruised, and some practitioners passed out from exhaustion.
