Xiangtan City, Hunan Province, resident Mr. Zhou Tianqi has benefited a great deal from Falun Gong since he learned the practice - sciatica, bone spurs, lumbar pain, and other diseases he had all disappeared.

Since February 15, 2000, Mr. Zhou has been detained and persecuted in the Xiangtan Liaison Office in Beijing, the Xiangtan County Detention Center, and the Hunan Province Xinkaipu Forced Labor Camp.
