Be Aware of Infiltrators Sent from China to Interfere in Overseas Activities

During a Dafa promoting activity at the Garden Corner Park of Chinatown in San Francisco at the time of the Western U.S. Falun Dafa Conference, some Dafa practitioners encountered two middle-aged women claiming that they were from Liaoning province, China.

A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words

When I went to Tiananmen Square on October 17 to appeal for Falun Gong, I was arrested and taken to the Tiananmen Police Station. Acting as if they were mad, the police there electrocuted me with electric batons and kicked me for several hours. As a result, wounds covered my body (the attached pictures are the proof of what they did to me). After the beating, several policemen held me down and threatened to inject me with something that they called a "vaccination." I did everything I could to resist, and they finally gave up after a while. Still, one police forcefully put drops of an extremely pungent tonic into my nostril. Soon afterwards it took effect - I felt dizzy and unbalanced, it was very difficult for me to breathe, and my mouth felt extremely dry. It is difficult to describe my suffering adequately. When they asked me to tell them my name and address, I simply did everything I could to deal with the pain and did not say anything at all. Finally they had no choice but to stop the interrogation. They tied my feet on a metal fence and handcuffed my hands to the lowest point on the fence. This way, I could neither stand up nor sit down. I had no idea how long I stayed in that position, but eventually I lost consciousness. I faintly remember other practitioners carrying me away.
