The Persecution of 20 Dafa Practitioners in Dazu County, Sichuan Province Illustrates the Scale, Severity and Pervasive Nature of the Suppression of Falun Gong
(Clearwisdom.net) As of May 16, 2004, it has been nearly five years since Jiang Zemin and his followers started to openly persecute Falun Gong practitioners on July 20, 1999. In order to justify and sustain the persecution, they have been spreading propaganda against Falun Gong to the people in China, who are denied access to the facts about Falun Gong. The Head of the "610 Office"* in Dazu County, Sichuan Province has collaborated with Dazu County's Public Security Bureau in following Jiang's order to persecute Falun Gong practitioners. They have ransacked Falun Gong practitioners' homes, extorted their money in the name of fines, thrown them into detention centers and jails, given them illegal sentences, subjected them to forced brainwashing programs which used violence and torture, and implicated their families and relatives in the persecution. They have sent out a large police force to hunt down Falun Gong practitioners and filled Dazu County with terror.
Falun Dafa Practitioner Ms. Fu Meihui from Maoming City, Guandong Province Dies as a Result of Torture
(Clearwisdom.net) Ms. Fu Meihui was a 57-year-old Falun Dafa practitioner from Zhongtong Town, Huazhou, Maoming City, Guangdong Province. Before she learned Falun Gong she used to have many diseases and was very weak. However, after she started practicing Falun Gong in 1998, she became very healthy. When the persecution against Falun Gong started in 1999, Ms. Fu went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong in April 2000. The police arrested her in violation of the Chinese Constitution and sent her back to the local police station where she was detained for twenty days. Afterwards, Ms. Fu was sent to the Huazhou First Detention Center where she was forced to do slave labor for over ten hours a day.
Wen Huiying, a Retired Worker in Changde City, Hunan Province Recounts the Brutal Persecution She Has Suffered
(Clearwisdom.net) My name is Wen Huiying. I'm a retired worker from the Taoyuan County Shipping Company in Changde City, Hunan Province. Because I believe in Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance, I was unjustly and brutally persecuted by Jiang's regime. I have been arrested and detained many times since the persecution of Falun Dafa began on July 20, 1999. Twice I was sentenced to a forced labor camp. Now I am homeless and have to move from one place to another in order to escape the persecution.
