Facts of the Persecution
1. Tianshui City Third Prison Guards Brutally Torture Practitioner Mr. Wang Yongming in Gansu Province.
The types of tortures used in the Tianshui Third Prison are particularly cruel and savage. Since March 2005 Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Wang Yongming has been brutally tortured because he resisted the persecution. At one time six prison guards put handcuffs and ankle shackles on him and used three and four electric batons, each with 300 kilowatts voltage, to shock him. Guards even stuck the batons into his mouth, shocked his tongue, his teeth, his head, neck and hands. During the nights, guards encouraged prisoners in the same cell unit to torture him, to not allow him to sleep, and to force him to stand still without touching the wall. As soon as he fell asleep, the prisoners would scream and threaten him. Mr. Wang Yongming was tortured like this for five entire days. Mr. Wang was already in extreme pain from the electric baton shocks, but the guards still encouraged prisoners to beat him; to kick his handcuffs, which cut into his wrists; and to punch him in the chest, making it painful for him to breathe. Prisoners held him up against a wall by his clothes and beat him with their fists. All of this was because Mr. Wang refused to give up his faith in Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance. He was inhumanly tortured by being locked in solitary confinement for 50 days, where he had to sleep on the floor more than half the time. He was not allowed visits from his family, and all contact with the outside world was cut off.

2. Baoding City Officials Mistreat Farmer Practitioners in Busy Season
On the morning of June 13, 2005, around 11 a.m., officials from Baoding City suddenly broke into Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Tang Huifang's home in Mingyi Township, Laishui County, Hebei Province. They ransacked the house and caused Ms. Tang to become destitute and homeless to avoid illegal arrest. The Mingyi Township Government officials have been actively involved in the persecution, arresting practitioners, ransacking their homes, and extorting money from them. Many practitioners have been sentenced to forced labor after being abducted. Practitioners Ms. Zhao Guo and Ms. Wang Suei are now locked up in the Baoding City Brainwashing Center after being abducted on May 10, 2005.
