Recently, Jiang Zemin and a handful of his close evil followers have escalated the persecution against Falun Gong practitioners in a number of areas. They take the calm and restraint of Falun Gong practitioners as their victory. They wildly claim that a decisive success has been made in the struggle against Falun Gong in order to confuse the media, to cover up their own psychological shakiness, and at the same time to escalate the crackdown on Falun Gong practitioners. Once again, their vicious faces are in full display.

It has been reported that Jiang Zemin in recent days has ordered those who served as his claws to convene in meetings to study and arrange the persecution against Falun Gong. Governmental agencies at different levels have been forced to strengthen the persecution on Falun Gong. A group of several people is assigned to be responsible for one Falun Gong practitioner to conduct so-called 'help and re-education,' which is in fact 'monitor and control.'

Severe punishment is set for Dafa practitioners who appeal, and the criteria for sentencing to labor camps have been lowered. Desperate measures are being carried out against resolute practitioners by sending them to mental hospitals. As for Falun Gong practitioners who have already been in labor camps, concentrated management has been called for, and so called "fully-loaded management" is carried out for cruel mental and physical torture.

Sources have disclosed that labor camps have turned into concentration camps. Relatives are not allowed to visit the practitioners so as to avoid leaking word of the ugly tortures that are inflicted on the practitioners.

We are appealing to governments and kind-hearted people in all countries: please pay serious attention to the persecution Falun Gong is suffering in Mainland China. We also appeal to the Chinese government to stop Jiang Zemin's sinful and evil acts.
