5. [Liuzhou City, Guangxi Province] Additional Information About the Imprisonment of Falun Dafa Practitioner Ms. Liu Jie

Ms. Liu Jie was a nurse from Liuzhou City, Guangxi Province. She was sent to a forced labor camp in 2001. During her incarceration, she was often punished for being steadfast in practicing Falun Gong. She had severe nearsightedness and stigmatism that made it difficult for her to perform the forced labor. Oftentimes, she was forced to stand in the courtyard under the scorching sun during the day and was not allowed to sleep until 2 a.m. The next day, she had to get up at 5 a.m. and stand in the courtyard again. The labor camp also controlled her account so that she could not withdraw money to buy items for daily use. The guards also instructed drug addicts to abuse her.

7. [Guangxi Province] Persecution of Falun Dafa Practitioners in the Yulin Area

In December 2004, practitioner Chen Zhi was arrested at a Falun Gong material production site. Practitioner Mr. Chen Boyong, Ms. Liu Fen and others from Bobai County were sentenced to forced labor camps. Also, Ms. Pang Suzhen has been detained at the county detention center for almost two months.

Ms. Lin Tiemei is currently detained at the Guangxi Women's Prison. Three officers are watching her everyday. They are afraid to bear the responsibility should her life be in danger. Last year, Ms. Lin was forced to jump off a tall building. The labor camp was afraid to admit her, so they asked the county police department to take her back. The Bobai County Police Department declined to take her back. By the end of 2003, Lin's life was in danger. In order to evade responsibility, Guangxi Women's Prison released Lin after extorting a large amount of money from her family. Lin Tiemei went to Beijing to appeal on behalf of Falun Gong as soon as she was released. She was arrested and taken back to Bobai Police Department. Later, she was sent to the Guangxi Women Prison.
