Facts of the Persecution
1. Prisoners Encouraged to Torture Falun Dafa Practitioners,
Almost Killing Them
Since the persecution began on July 20, 1999, several hundred Falun Dafa
practitioners have been tortured in the Jiangxi Province Women's Labor Camp. One
day in November 2005, Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Chen Huaying (28 years old)
went on hunger strike to protest the persecution. She was beaten and kicked by
three prisoners, pressed down on the floor to be forced-fed, and stepped on and
kicked by the prisoners, almost killing her. Another Falun Dafa practitioner who
resisted the persecution, Ms. Wu Jingjun, almost died when she was also brutally
beaten while being hung up by handcuffs.

2. Falun Dafa Practitioners Are Brutally Beaten and Suffer
Extortion in the Gongyi City Brainwashing Session in Henan Province
In April 2005, more than a dozen Falun Dafa practitioners
were illegally arrested and taken to a brainwashing session by
agents of the 610 Office. They were tortured with brutal beatings,
interrogations, deprivation of sleep, etc. Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Li
Wenzhou (over 60 years old) was locked in a small, dark room and was not allowed
any visitors, which caused him to become very sick. He was released after his
family was extorted out of a large sum of money. Mr. Li was hospitalized as soon
as his family picked him up.

3. Falun Dafa Practitioner Mr. Li Zhengwen Arrested and
Brutally Tortured
On November 22, 2005, Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Li Zhengwen from Xishui
County, Hubei Province was illegally arrested. After going through much trouble,
Mr. Li Zhengwen's mother (over 70 years old) was finally allowed to visit her
son. She found her son very weak with his head falling backwards. The buttons of
his shirt and pants were all undone and he had to be helped by two policemen in
order to even stand. Upon seeing her son, Mr. Li's mother cried, "How could
you torture him so badly? My son was not like this before!"

4. Falun Dafa Practitioner Mr. Xiong Quanlin Arrested and
Brutally Tortured
On the morning of July 9, 2005, Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Xiong Quanlin from
Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province, was arrested by police from the Jianxin County
Police Department. He has been detained in Jianxin County Detention Center for
the past four months. On October 24, 2005, his family was allowed to visit him
for the first time. They learned that Mr. Xiong had been tortured for three
whole days when first arrested. He was beaten with a metal stick, shocked with
an electric baton, and forced to sit on the tiger bench. His entire
body was swollen. He was forced to sign his name by policeman Deng Kangyuan
(male), who held the pen in his hand when he was not conscious. The police used
this signature as "evidence" in order to sentence Xiong Quanlin to
prison on November 28, 2005.
