On July 12, 2003, a strange thing happened at a local newspaper in a city in Sichuan Province, but because they covered it up many people do not know about it.

A newspaper photographer went out to take pictures to enhance the layout of the cover page. Several days after the picture was published, a handwriting specialist from the police department noticed that the phrase "Falun Dafa is good" appeared in fuzzy writing, in the photograph. He called the newspaper three times. The newspaper and its editor in chief immediately called a conference; they reported to the Propaganda Department and to the central government. The central government ordered the city government to investigate the incident secretly. The "610 Office" was directly involved in the investigation.

All employees involved in the publishing of the newspaper were told that if they or their family members practiced Falun Gong, they would be dismissed and sentenced to 8 years of forced labor. Many of the employees in the 13 departments, from the editor in chief to members of the publishing department, including the photographer were punished. Some of them were dismissed, some were demoted and had their salaries reduced, and/or were relocated to other departments. Actually the employees that were punished were all people who are very discrete and strictly followed orders. The environment at the newspaper is very tense and everyone is worried for themselves.

A practitioner who was a company manager in Qinigdao City accompanied his wife to distribute flyers telling the truth about Falun Gong. Someone reported them and they were arrested and taken to the local police station. The chief of police at the station saw this practitioner, who was a former acquaintance, and said, "It is not that I do not want to help you. If you were an ordinary criminal guilty of hitting somebody, gang fighting, gambling, or visiting prostitutes, I would have released you right away because of our relationship. But since you practice Falun Gong, I do not dare to release you. If someone reports me to higher authorities," he pointed to his police uniform, "I would be stripped of my uniform. I will see what I can do to help you." But the next day this policeman sent him to the Qingdao "610 Office" to undergo a brainwashing class. His wife was sent to a forced labor camp to serve three years of forced labor.

It is clear that senior police officials and junior officers alike tremble in fear of being punished at the hands of Jiang and his gang. They commit all kinds of crimes in order to keep their titles.
