1. [Weifang City, Shandong Province] Busload of Falun Dafa Practitioners Secretly Transferred from Weibei Prison in 2005
In 2005, the authorities of the Weibei Prison in Weifang City put several Dafa practitioners onto a bus and said they were going to Jinan Prison. However, the bus driver was replaced by another half-way through the trip. It is not known where the practitioners are being held now. We hope that the families of incarcerated Dafa practitioners can demand their release from the Weibei Prison and also find out the whereabouts of those who were transferred.
2. [Chaoyang City, Liaoning Province] Dafa Practitioner Mr. Zhao Hongli on a Hunger Strike for Six Months

3. [Tianjin City] What I Saw at the Hangu District Train Station
At 2:00 p.m. on April 14, 2006, I passed the Hangu District Train Station in Tianjin City and saw that all train operations had been suspended. The military and local armed police imposed martial law, and there were many police cars. It looked frightening! According to insiders, many inmates were transferred at this train station. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) usually carries out large-scale transfers in the evening, but this time they did it during the day. This is probably related to the exposed Sujiatun Concentration Camp. The "inmates" that were being transferred were probably Falun Gong practitioners. The Party was probably trying to evade an international investigation. People from all walks of society: please pay attention to this issue.
4. [Puning, Guangdong Province] Dafa Practitioners Ms. Li Minyu and Ms. Wu Chunmei Disappeared; Their Whereabouts are Unknown
Dafa practitioners and teachers Li Minyu and Wu Chunmei from Puning, Guangdong Province are no longer held at the Wushi Custody Center in Puning. We assume both were secretly transferred on April 13th, the day Wu Chunmei was arrested. The only explanation the police gave to Li Minyu's family was, "She is too stubborn. We must send her to a [brainwashing] class." Her family has not received any official notice, and the whereabouts of the two practitioners is unknown. We urge people to pay attention to this issue, due to the potential severity of the situation.
5. [Lanzhou City, Gansu Province] Practitioner Mr. Feng Zhandong Disappeared

On February 8, 2006 police intercepted him while walking in the streets. The police confiscated "Minghui Weekly" articles and other truth-clarification materials from him. Lots of people were in the streets, so the police released Feng Zhandong. On February 11, Feng Zhandong disappeared and has not been seen since. During this period, the police called his family twice and told them not to inquire of his whereabouts.

7. [Tangshan City, Hebei Province] Exposing Official Documents from the Fengrun District Party Committee
According to a reliable source, the Fengrun District Party Committee in Tangshan City recently issued documents following orders from the central Party to dictate another round of persecution against Dafa practitioners. The document requires townships, town and street Party committees as well as directly related Party work places within the district to investigate the background of all Dafa practitioners. The officials must locate practitioners who have not "reformed" [renounced their belief] or those with advanced educational degrees, or with highly specialized skills; those who were volunteer assistants at Dafa practice sites, and those who were once illegally arrested or those who left school due to persecution. This thorough hunting down began on April 5, 2006. The police go from door to door and canvass each work place and every village within their precinct. They asked each person questions and recorded the information in individual registration documents. They also carried their investigation to rental houses and interrogated the mobile population. They completed the manhunt before the end of April, targeting Falun Gong practitioners whom they thought were "important personages."
This is another aspect of a nationwide persecution. Dafa practitioners must treat it with righteous thoughts. The document requires that the police be present during investigations of "important personages" and steadfast Dafa practitioners. If something unexpected happens, the police are to "firmly strike down and take care of it." They are also told to "do, but not tell;" keep the investigation a strict secret. The extent of information released is being strictly controlled. The police were instructed to not use violent means so as to not cause discontent or arouse suspicion.
