1. [Shenyang City, Liaoning Province] Dafa Practitioner Gao Yaxian Holds a Hunger Strike for Over Twenty Days
Practitioner Ms. Gao Yaxian from Heping District is around 45 years old. In the spring of 2004, police arrested her for distributing Dafa truth-clarifying materials and put her in the Longshan Forced Labor Camp in Shenyang City. Gao Yaxian persisted in practicing cultivation and was thus tortured so badly that she couldn't walk. She was later transferred to the Masanjia Forced Labor Camp for further torture. Gao Yaxian refuses to cooperate with lawless personnel and is very steadfast in practicing Dafa. She has now held a hunger strike for over 20 days and has become quite weak. Her family members are passively enduring the situation under pressure. They dare not take the initiative to ask the police to release Gao Yaxian. Other Dafa practitioners tried to contact them, but they refused to meet.
2. [Baoding City, Hebei Province] Wang Juan is Comatose After being Tortured in the Taihang Prison
On April 16, 2004, the Taihang Prison, located in the Mancheng District, accepted eight Falun Gong practitioners. Among them is 36-year-old Ms. Wang Juan from Dingzhou City, Hebei Province, a former employee of Dingzhou City's Forced Labor Camp. On April 25, the tenth day after coming to the Taihang Prison, she was taken away in an ambulance and did not return until recently. The No. 2 Prison District instructor Ge Shuguang, No. 2 Sub-district instructor Ma Huiran, and policewoman Du Lijing took her away. Later, a team leader by the last name of Ma contacted Wang Juan's sister-in-law, Wang Hongying, who is also held there, and said, "We also don't know what happened. Her guard said she fell down in the washroom. She just pointed to her head as by then she couldn't speak, and went into a coma after we sent her to hospital."
On the very first day that Wang Juan was held at the Taihang Prison, the guards assigned people to forcibly "reform" her. These people now do not dare to say anything, and always try to hide themselves. They must be among the following people: Liang Yening, Wei Tianchen, She Qiaoling, Zheng Jianfang, Liu Xiaofeng, Wang Junyan, Zhao Changyun, Zhu Hong, Wang Yunman (from Shijiazhuang City), Lan Qizhi (from Shijiazhuang City), Cai Yongcun, Fan Yonghong, Cao Shumian, Liu Xiumin, Han Fuyan (from Qinhuangdao City) and Liu Jianhua (from Zhangjiakou City).
It is not clear how they tortured Wang Juan, but Wang Juan gave in and wrote the so-called "Four Statements" (1) on the third day she was at the prison. Later when she became clear-minded, she wanted to withdraw the "Four Statements" that she had written, but the team leader didn't permit this and instead brainwashed her until April 25.
