Facts of the persecution

Since July 20, 1999, persons from the Tangshan City Police Department, the "610 Office," from the Lubei District Police Department in Tangshan City and the Fengrun Police Department have persecuted Dafa practitioners. They cruelly beat many practitioners so severely that they were injured, disabled or even died; they sent the practitioners to mental hospitals, forced labor camps, prisons, and brainwashing classes; they also destroyed Dafa materials production sites; they used methods common to police officers: ransacking homes, fines up to 10,000 Yuan, shocking people with electric batons, beating them with rubber clubs and metal chairs, "Tying the Rope" [The police tie up the practitioner with a nylon rope that is thinner than the little finger. They circle the rope around his neck, and tie his hands behind his back. Then the police use all the force they can muster to tighten the rope until the practitioner's arms are pulled upwards to reach the level of his neck]; they tie the practitioners in a bed for a long time; they tie practitioners tightly with thick wire cables, and then they used hand-cranked telephones to generate electricity to shock practitioners all over their bodies.

Practitioner Mr. Sun Jianzhong was electrically shocked with wire cables and thus burned until his fingers turned black and he was foaming from the mouth. He also was subjected to the "Tying the Rope" torture, shocked with electric batons, brutally force-fed human urine, forcibly injected with mind-altering drugs. As the result of this torture, the left half of Sun Jianzhong's body became paralyzed and he is unable to take care of himself.

Dafa practitioner Ms Guo Xiaohui was also tortured by being electrically shocked with wire cables until she was foaming at the mouth and she became unconscious. As a result, she developed heart problems and bones in her lumbar area in her lower back were dislocated.

Liu Hao, the male head of the No. 1 Detention Center in Tangshan City and Yao Shujun, the female official of the detention center, have savagely tortured hundreds of Dafa practitioners who practice Truth, Compassion, Tolerance. They repeatedly torture the practitioners and force-feed practitioners all who are on hunger strike.

Around November 25, 2003, Dafa practitioner Ms.Gao Shuqin, 50 years old, from the Ranghulu District, Daqing City, was abducted by officers from "110" District Police Department. According to inside sources, Gao Shuqin is currently detained at Daqing City's Detention Center. She has been tortured with a method called "a metal chair," on which she was forced to sit for many days. She has to rely on others for aiding her with eating, drinking and helping her with bowel and bladder functions.

Wang Tao, male, is the former deputy head of the No. 2 Detention Center in the Shangzhi City Police Department. He encourages inmates to beat Dafa practitioners. Wang Tao often walks around the cells with a leather belt and plastic tubing in hand, saying, "Whoever practices the Falun Gong exercises, I'll beat him to death!"

Dafa practitioner Ms. Jia Xinghua from Shangzhi City went to Beijing to appeal for Dafa in late 2000. She was arrested at Tiananmen Square, was sent back to Shangzhi City and detained at the No. 2 Detention Center. Yu Jinfang, head of the Political and Security Division, went Jia Xinghua's husband's work unit with Lu Xiaomin and extorted 6,000 Yuan cash without Jia Xinghua's husband's knowledge. When Jia Xinghua's husband's later learned about the extortion, he grew anxious and fell ill with appendicitis; he also suffered from severe intestinal adhesion and almost lost his life. Jia Xinghua was detained for three months past her term and later her family bailed her out with 20,000 Yuan and the influence from the family members' jobs.

Liu Shangkuan, the male head for the Political and Security Division of Nong'an County's Police Department in Jilin Province vehemently persecuted Falun Gong practitioners following Jiang's orders. He extorted money and other things from practitioners and their families for his personal enrichment. According to an incomplete estimate, Liu Shangkuan extorted money and items valued at about 700,000 Yuan. He bought a retreat home for his children in Changchun City, worth 300,000 Yuan.

Personal Account: My name is Wu Dexiu and I am 40 years old. I am a male farmer in Yongxiang Village, Songjiang Township, Jiaohe City, Jilin Province. I began practicing Falun Dafa in June 1996 and I benefited physically and mentally. Because I validated and explained the truth about Falun Dafa, I was illegally sent to a forced labor camp twice by those in the government controlled by Jiang. I was brutally tortured at Jilin City's Labor Camp where I was shocked with over a dozen electric batons until my skin turned black and blistered. At the Jiutai Labor Camp I was tortured until I was near death and then I was sent to a hospital three times for emergency treatment.

Belated News:

Liu Huaiqun, the male head of the Panshan County Agriculture Bank in Liaoning Province persecuted Dafa practitioners in his work unit. He took away practitioner Mr. Sun Jian's two-level bonus. In 2000, director Yang Xuejing (male) ordered Sun Jian to write an article slandering Master and Dafa. Mr. Sun Jian resisted and Yang Xuejing said it was a special request from Liu Huaiqun, the head of the bank. In order to prevent Sun Jian from contacting other practitioners, in late October 2000, Liu Huaiqun transferred Sun Jian to the Qinggong Bank. On December 30, Sun Jian turned in a statement of resignation from his job. Liu Huaiqun called the police department and told the police Sun Jian was going to Beijing. Consequently, the police abducted Sun Jian on his way home and sent him to forced labor camp for one year without trial. Liu Huaiqun only paid him a basic living fee that year, which was around 3,600 Yuan, and withheld Sun Jian's salary, worth 10,000 Yuan.

People's heart and karmic retribution

Evildoing will be punished; persecuting Dafa is bringing disaster upon oneself:

Wang Jiayu, head of the Security Division for the Luoling Coal Mine in Zoucheng City, Shandong Province persecuted Falun Dafa practitioners. On November 25, 2003, while riding a tricycle with his family, Wang Jiayu traveled to Zucheng City. On the return trip, their tricycle was hit by a speeding car around Panlongzhu on the No. 104 National Highway. His family died upon impact. Wang Jiayu sustained a severe chest injury and died in the evening after medical procedures failed to save him.

In late spring of 2001, Li Zhongde, a farmer in Xinglongzhuang Village, Laixi, Qingdao City wrote a poem, viciously attacking Dafa and Master. His poem was published in the Jiangshan Monthly News. One day, when he and his wife worked in the fields, a rainstorm arrived and thunderbolt hit Li Zhongde. He died instantly.

Su Anyun, the accountant for Six Village in Jiangshan Town, Laixi, Qingdao City often led police officers to unlawfully seize Falun Dafa books and materials from Dafa practitioners' home. In 2001, he fell and broke his ankle, yet he didn't change his ways and continued to assist the evildoers. He became bedridden in 2002, and unable to care for himself.
