2. Mr. Ci Baosen from Jingmen in Hubei Province Missing for Four Years
Mr. Ci Baosen, over 40 years old, is the former director of the Yuelianghu (Moon Lake) Police Station (now changed to the Yuelianghu Public Security Sub-bureau) at the Jingmen Petrochemical Headquarter Factory. In 1999, he and his wife Ms. Li Hong-E were arrested while on their way to appeal in Beijing for the right to practice Falun Gong. While Ms. Li was detained, Mr. Ci was sent to a labor camp. He was released around the end of 2000 or the beginning of 2001. In the second half of 2001, his work unit did not allow him to work normally. They also unreasonably refused Mr. Ci's application to get paid as he should for the number of his employment years. They only gave him a small amount for living expenses each month. His wife also lost her job and did not have any source of income. At that time they needed to have enough money to pay for their son and daughter's high school education. Facing the dual pressures of the local personnel's restriction of their personal freedom and the economic interruption, Mr. Ci was compelled to leave home to make a living elsewhere. Four years have passed. No message has ever been received from him and no one has been able to find him.

5. Ms. Xu Lishan of Guangdong Province, Missing for More than Four Years
Dafa practitioner Ms. Xu Lishan, 42 years old, worked at a laboratory in the Chaozhou City Running Water Company, Guangdong Province. Before starting to practice Falun Dafa, she had a serious gynecological disease. She frequently sought medical treatment, but it didn't seem to help. In 1998, she fortunately started practicing Falun Dafa and her health recovered very quickly. Her husband was unhappy about her practicing Falun Dafa. He aggressively opposed the practice and abused her. Nevertheless, Ms. Xu persistently kept studying the teachings of Dafa and practicing the exercises.
After the persecution started, Ms. Xu went to Beijing for the first time in August 2000 to appeal against the persecution of Falun Dafa. Later, after the Chaozhou Police Station and the Running Water Company brought her back, she was put in a local detention center for 15 days. Ms. Xu was required to pay all of the expenses (more than 9,000 yuan in total) of the trip to Beijing to bring her back. The Running Water Company requested her husband to pay the money in one installment. Her husband did not have the entire amount and had to borrow 4,000 yuan in order to pay the first part of it. The remainder, a little over 5,000 yuan was deducted later from wages. Ms. Xu went to Beijing for the second time on December 12, 2000. The news of her arrest came through, and she has been missing since then. No one has been able to locate her.
