3. [Yantai City, Shandong Province] The "610 Office" Illegally Arrests Dafa Practitioners Zhou Jinghong and Li Meizhen

By the end of September 2002, Ms. Zhou Jinghong, a Dafa practitioner who works at Yantai City's Fushan Pickle Factory in Shandong Province, and Ms. Li Meizhen, from Zhiyang Town, were successively taken to a brainwashing class by "610 Office" members. [Note: The "610 Office" is an agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems.]

The collaborators [former Falun Gong practitioners who have gone astray due to brainwashing and torture] in the Fushan District - Ho Tianqing, Sun Lihua (female), Hu Haifeng (female) and Zhang Shulan have been cooperating with evil forces for a long time to persecute Dafa practitioners detained in the brainwashing class.

4. [Daqing City, Heilongjiang Province] Zhang Zhi, a Police Officer from the Daqing City Petroleum Institute's Police Precinct, Is Persecuted for Practicing Falun Gong

Zhang Zhi is a police officer from the Daqing City Petroleum Institute's Police Precinct. After practicing cultivation, he became a dutiful, good policeman. Because of his insistence on practicing Dafa cultivation, he was forced to leave home and live in exile in order to avoid persecution. On October 18, 2002, officers from the Anhong Police Precinct from Anda City in Heilongjiang Province arrested Zhang Zhi and five other Dafa practitioners. Currently their whereabouts are unknown. We hope international human rights organizations will pay attention to the situation of these six Dafa practitioners.
