Mr. Ge Xinshan is in his 50s and worked at Suizhou City Cotton Factory. He was held at the No. 1 Detention Center and the No. 2 Detention Center many times in March 2000, and in 2001 and 2002. He was arrested again by local police in November 2004 and was sentenced to two years of forced labor. He is currently being held at the Shayang Labor Camp.

Ms. Li Fengai is in her 50s. She was arrested and detained many times by Suizhou City 610 Office agents in March and July of 2000, and in October 2002. Her husband divorced her after the first detention. Her father, who was in his 70s, passed away after living under tremendous pressure.

Ms. Wei Xiaoping, 36, lives in the Zengdu District. Suizhou local 610 Office agents sent her to the No. 2 Detention Center in 1999 and again in 2000. The same agents arrested her in the street in May 2001 and detained her at No. 1 Detention Center for more than six months. They again sent her to the No. 1 Detention Center in October 2002 and later transferred her to a brainwashing class at the No. 2 Detention Center. The 610 Office agents coerced her husband's employers to pay a 2,000 yuan "brainwashing fee."

A group of Dafa practitioners soon went on a hunger strike and refused to cooperate with the perpetrators, but they weren't released until after the Sixteenth Party Congress. More than ten practitioners were sent to the brainwashing class. Following their release, the 610 Office agents arrested several of them and sent them to the Shayang Forced Labor Camp and to the Dengken Forced Labor Reeducation Farm.

Ms. Hu Fuying, 72, came from Yingcheng City, Hubei Province. She had lived at a residential compound affiliated with the Suizhou City Farm Machinery Management Bureau in Hubei Province.

She was arrested and taken to the Chaoyang Branch of the Beijing Police Department from where she was soon released. Local police arrested her son and daughter in 2001, which traumatized her. In this case, the corrupt officials at the Yingcheng Police Department connived with lawless officers at the Xicheng Police Station in Suizhou City. They went to her home to harass her. She could no longer live in peace. Local police again arrested her youngest son in December 2001 when he clarified the truth of Falun Dafa. He is being detained in the Shayang Labor Camp to this day. When Ms. Hu heard this, she went to the Yingcheng Police Department to urge the police to release her son.

Ms. Shang Chuancui, 49, was a former spouse of an employee of the Tieshu Group, Suizhou City.

After the persecution of Falun Dafa began on July 20, 1999, her old ailments frequently reappeared. She attributed that to the fact that the normal cultivation environment for Falun Dafa practitioners to practice and study the Fa together was disrupted and she stopped practicing. In 2001, with the help of other practitioners, she resumed practicing Falun Dafa, and soon after that recovered rapidly again. On March 8, 2002, while Ms. Xu was studying the Fa and practicing the exercises in a practitioner's home, people reported them to the police. Along with other police, the head of Xicheng Police Station surnamed Zhang took her to the Suizhou Second Detention Center, where she was detained for a week.

When the persecution began in July 1999, she had practiced Falun Gong for only two months but stopped practicing since the normal cultivation environment for Falun Dafa practitioners, to practice and study the Fa together, was disrupted. With other practitioners' help she resumed practicing Falun Gong. Under continued pressure from the CCP's terror, she passed away.
