Facts of the Persecution

1. The Suffering of Ms. Xu Guizhi and Ms. Chen Xiuhua Over the Past Years in Shuangcheng City, Heilongjiang Province

Ms. Xu Guizhi and Ms. Chen Xiuhua started practicing Falun Dafa in March 1999. On January 12, 2001, they went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Dafa, but Zhong Renyi, the head of the Qinglin Police Station, arrested them and sent them to the Shuangcheng Detention Center, where they were detained for 42 days. The Qinglin Police then further detained Ms. Xu and Ms. Chen at the Qinglin Township for two more days. In order to be released, they were both required to pay 2000 yuan.

In late November 2001, Ms. Xu and four other practitioners were clarifying the truth at Jiujiazi Village when police officers arrested another practitioner, who revealed Ms. Xu's name. Ms. Xu was forced to leave her home, and police officer Cai Zhiwen of the Dongguan Police Station in Shuangcheng City forced her husband to pay 3500 yuan. In March 2002, Qinglin township Chinese Communist Party secretary Zhang Lianfeng, along with policeman Bai and three other officers, searched Ms. Xu and Ms. Chen Xiuhua's homes and stole their Falun Dafa books. Another incident occurred in 2004, when four to five officers from Shuangcheng City's 610 Office and the Qinglin Police Station again searched Ms. Xu's home, stealing Falun Dafa books, a tape recorder, practice music tapes, and Falun Dafa lecture audiotapes. In November of 2004, police officer Zhong Fuzhi took away Ms. Xu and Ms. Chen's bicycle when they were clarifying the truth at Zhongjiatun.

2. Please Pay Attention to Mr. Wang Peng and Others Who Are Detained at the First Detention Center of Changchun City, Jilin Province

Mr. Wang Peng is a practitioner from Changchun City. At this time, the detained Mr. Wang and other practitioners are on a hunger strike in the First Detention Center of Changchun City. The procurator and the first department of the Changchun City Police Bureau are the units in charge of the persecution. Police officer Li Guangshou and about ten other officers from the 4th Brigade, 2nd Middle Police Group in Changchun City abducted Mr. Wang and others from an automotive factory on March 7, 2005. During interrogation at the City Police Bureau, the practitioners suffered many tortures and were sleep deprived for several days. Even the practitioners' family members have been abused. Police officers coerced Mr. Wang's non-practicing family members to force Mr. Wang's mother, a Falun Dafa practitioner, to expose information about other practitioners.

3. New Officers in the Chaoyanggou Forced Labor Camp of Changchun City, Jilin Province, Continue to Persecute Practitioners

From March 30 to May 17, 2005, the Chaoyanggou Forced Labor Camp, led by the 4th Brigade (an intensely monitored group, formerly the 2nd Brigade), started a new round of intensified persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners. In the 4th Brigade, instructor Chen Zhikuai and guard Li Jun turned a classroom into a torture chamber for interrogating and torturing practitioners. Eighteen practitioners suffered in this persecution. Practitioners Sun Changping, Xiao Ming, Chen Xianling, Wu Shuyu and others did not give in to the tortures, and their terms were extended for two more months. They were tortured by being forced to dig waste pits; with shocks from electric batons after cold or hot showers; by having to kneel down while wooden sticks were inserted under their thighs; with perpetrators treading on their bent legs; and by being beaten with wooden clubs, hung in the air with handcuffs, bound up with ropes, kicked and punched like a punching bag at boxing practice. The noise from the electric shocks and the practitioners' painful cries resonated throughout the camp every day. If one entered the torture chamber walking upright, support was needed to exit. Practitioners Shao Zhengkun and Sun Zhangping both suffered from ailments while staying at the camp. Mr. Shao had three to four kilograms of fluid in his chest and was diagnosed with pleurisy, while Mr. Sun Zhangping had a spinal misalignment and could not walk. The police guards still handcuffed them and hung both of them up with handcuffs, torturing them day and night. Those practitioners who yielded under the pressure but then resumed their practice of Falun Dafa suffered even more. Among them, practitioners Xiao Ming, Zhao Xianjun, Xu Qingwu and others were tortured many times, and their bodies were covered with injuries. Even after a month of recovery, they were still unable to walk steadily.

4. Mr. Gao Jiye from Huachuan County, Heilongjiang Province, Becomes Homeless Due to the Persecution

My name is Gao Jiye. I am a resident of Group 2 of the Baoshan Farm, Huachuan County. I attained Falun Dafa in 1998. In 2001, police officer Zhao Jinzhong from the Farm Police Station illegally searched my home, took away my Falun Dafa materials and books, and abducted me to the police station. To force me to give up the practice of Falun Dafa, police head Zhao Jianqiu slapped me on my face, giving me a bloody nose.

On January 21, 2002, Zhao Jianqiu led three other policemen to search my home once again. My Falun Dafa books, materials and some posters I had made were taken away. They abducted me to the Group 2 office, where the farm's CCP secretary was located. He signed a form detaining me for 15 days. On the second day, I was sent to the Longyunju Detention Center. I went on a hunger strike to protest and I became very weak. I was not released until ten days after my family members appealed. However, Jia Chunfu, the Group 2 CCP secretary, and Li Chengen, the farm's political and judicial secretary, frequently harassed me at my home. In 2002, just because I practiced Falun Dafa, Jia Chunfu and Group 2 leader Zhang Yi confiscated the land I had contracted. In April 2002, policemen Liu Guiming and Wang San again abducted me to the police station. I became sick that night due to the persecution. On the second day, secretary Li Chengen ordered policemen Liu Guiming and Wang San to bring me to the Xianglan Township in Tangyuan County. I was not allowed to go home.

I went to Beijing to appeal on September 28, 2002. The police arrested me and brought me to the Qianmen Police Station, and then I was further detained at the Liaison Office of Jiamusi City in Beijing for 32 days.

On December 1, 2002, policemen from the Xianglan Township arrested and sent me to the Tangyuan County Detention Center, where I was sentenced to three years in a forced labor camp. However, because I was weak from the persecution, the forced labor camp refused to take me. On December 10, 2002, the Tangyuan "610 Office" finally sent me home. But the second day after my release, policemen Li Jianming and Wang San from the Baoshan Farm Police Station again sent me to the Xianglan Township in Tangyuan County. Once again I was not allowed to return home.

In February 2003, I worked as a sheepherder at the Jiangchuan Farm. Soon after I started, someone reported me for practicing Falun Dafa. Police officer Ha Mei from Jiangchuan Farm lead two other officers in having me arrested, and I was returned to the Baoshan Farm. Again the policemen sent me to the Xianglan Township at Tangyuan County. I did not return home until December 2003.
