Ms. Wang Lixuan was 27 years old, held a bachelor's degree and lived in Nangou Village, Sikou Town, Xixia City, Shandong Province. Her son Meng Hao was only eight months old.
On October 21, 2000, Ms. Wang Lixuan went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong. She took her eight-month-old son Meng Hao with her, holding him in her arms. On the morning of November 7, 2000, they were arrested by police on Tiananmen Square. Because Ms. Wang Lixuan formerly worked for a company in the Yantai Development Special Region, on the afternoon of November 7, 2000, policeman Mou from the Yantai Development Region Police Station took her to the Yantai Development Region's Beijing Liaison Office located on the 18th floor of the Hua-Ao Center Building. They were in the custody of policeman Mou. Around 4 p.m., Ms. Wang Lixuan and her son plunged to their deaths from the 18th floor of that building.
Ms. Wang Lixuan's mother Li Xiuxiang, who is also a Falun Gong practitioner, and her husband received the notice of the death of Ms. Wang and her son, and then went to Beijing to confirm their identities.
The circumstances of Ms. Wang Lixuan's and her baby son's death have still not been properly investigated. We truly believe the truth will surface when Jiang and the CCP's propaganda campaign and information blockade come to an end. Regardless of the outcome of the investigation, Jiang and his followers can never deny their responsibility for the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners.
In May 2005, Zhang Xiaolan, the Party Secretary of Chuanying District, Jilin City, and Mr. Wang, the chairman of Chuanying District Department of Law, ordered the policemen from the Changchun Road Police Station to arrest over 10 Falun Gong practitioners. They also worked with Qu Jiang, the general manager of the Jilin Chunguang Dairy Co. Ltd, and locked the practitioners up in the company's hostel for forced brainwashing.

By May 19, 2005, over 10 Falun Gong practitioners had been arrested and sent to the hostel in Chunguang Dairy Co. Ltd for detention and forced brainwashing. They were deprived of freedom while the policemen and other staff members attempted to force them to give up Falun Gong. Two practitioners were detained in each room and monitored by two staff members.
On the night of May 19, 2005, after they heard the news, some Falun Gong practitioners went to the neighborhood of the forced brainwashing center to collect information. Some practitioners phoned Qu Jiang, the general manager of the Chunguang Dairy Co. Ltd. They immediately exposed to the world the crimes of the brainwashing center in the Chuanying District on the Clearwisdom.net website. Meanwhile they informed many local practitioners about the detailed information they had collected. They made posters exposing the crimes of the brainwashing center and a 4-meter-long banner reading, "Stop the Persecution and Immediately Release the Illegally Detained Falun Gong Practitioners."
Later that night, many local Falun Gong practitioners worked together and put up over 20 posters stating "Stop the Persecution and Immediately Release the Innocent People" on the front gate of the Jilin Chunguang Dairy Co. Ltd, and on the electricity poles along the roads nearby. Some other practitioners put up a long banner, which read, "Stop the Persecution and Immediately Release the Illegally Detained Falun Gong Practitioners," on the iron fence outside the brainwashing center. Practitioners who did not go worked together with them by continuously sending forth righteous thoughts.

We ask overseas practitioners to work with us to call, fax or write to the related departments of Jilin City to clarify the truth.
We appeal to the righteous people in the world to join us to defend what is right and stop the brutal persecution of innocent people.

He was not allowed to go out and was ordered to write a self-criticism statement to show that he had renounced Falun Gong to be delivered after the Chinese New Year period. Mr. Wu firmly believed that Falun Gong was good so he had no choice but to leave home two days before the 2000 Chinese New Year's Day. In May or June of 2000, it was reported that he had returned to his elder uncle's home, who lived locally, to get some money.

On January 23, 2001 I was sent to Shuangcheng Detention Center, where Zhu Xiangguo was held. I was held there for one month, and I witnessed the persecution of Zhu Xiangguo.
According to Zhu Xiangguo, he went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong during the 2001 Chinese New Year. He was arrested in Tiananmen Square. Because he refused to give his name and address, the police poured buckets of cold water on him and kicked his abdomen with their boots. They beat him so savagely that his shirt was stuck to his back with his own blood.
During his incarceration at the Shuangcheng Detention Center, the perpetrators from the Shuangcheng City 610 Office ordered his family to persuade him to give up Falun Gong. His brother beat and kicked him; his wife, sister-in-law and child knelt on the floor and begged him, but Zhu Xiangguo remained steadfast.

2. My Leukemia Is Gone, But I Suffered Inhumane Persecution for Speaking the Truth
My name is Wang Yulan, and I am a 50-year-old woman. I am an employee of the Foreign Trade Company of Zhucheng City, Shandong Province. Since July 20, 1999, my company has detained its employees who practice Falun Gong and forced them to write a Guarantee Statement to give up their practice of Falun Gong. In November of 1999, I went to Beijing with several other practitioners to appeal. We were arrested and detained in a prison for several days before being taken back home by Zhucheng City Police. We were beaten by the police and then transferred to a detention center.
In February of 2000, I went to Beijing again to appeal on behalf of Falun Gong. Upon arriving at Tiananmen Square, I was arrested and sent back to a police station in Zhucheng City. Policeman Cao Jinhui used an electric baton to shock my face and then my mouth. Later at the detention center, I was locked to the iron chair, which is used only for prisoners on death row. My face was repeatedly slapped, my feet were stomped on, and some of my hair was torn out. In May 2000, I went to Beijing again with fellow practitioner Li Yuxiang. Once we arrived at the appeals office, we were arrested and sent to a Beijing police station. My company took us back to Zhucheng City and forced us to drink urine. Then we were sent to the detention center. I went on a hunger strike to protest the inhuman treatment and was force-fed through my nose until it bled.
In November 2000, I was sentenced to three years of forced labor. I saw the police shocking fellow practitioner Ms. Chen Yuxiang with electric batons for a long time. Both sides of her face were covered in blisters. Another practitioner Ms. Shen Zhongxiang was shocked on the arm by an electric baton. She could not put any sleeve on that arm. Practitioner Ms. Guo Fang had her feet shocked so badly that she could not put on shoes for several days. My socks were stripped off, and the bottoms of my feet were shocked with four electric batons. Under this inhuman torture, I gave in against my will. Afterwards, I declared my statement under pressure to be null and void and continued to practice Falun Gong. Therefore, I was denied sleep for nine days and nights in a row. I went on a hunger strike for over a month and was force-fed many times. Once I was restrained by handcuffs during force-feeding. My hands swelled, and my whole body was covered in scabies.

Statements of Appeal/Petition and family letter from the Harbin Women's Prison
Practitioner Song Qing's petition statement: I am a Falun Gong practitioner. My name is Song Qing and I am being held at the No. 1 Division of the Heilongjiang Province Women's Prison. On September 11, 2002 I was transferred to the Harbin Women's Prison, where the guards hit my eyes and bruised them. Several days later, they forced a dozen practitioners, including me, to do military drills and march under the scorching sun. I passed out as a result, and when I came to, they ordered me to write a guarantee statement. I refused, and they forced me to stay under the sun. In late September 2002, I was transferred to another division and was slapped over ten times for refusing to cooperate with the perpetrators. In mid-December, I was forced to stand for a whole night and was not allowed to sleep. In mid-June 2003, we practitioners refused to do slave labor and to wear the inmate uniforms. The guards tore our clothes and humiliated us. They wrapped my head with a white cloth and beat and kicked me until I could not breathe. In December 2003, I was forced to stack stools against the wall for a whole week. On January 1, 2004 [Chinese lunar calendar], about 20 practitioners were forced to stand in the pump room for a whole night. On March 8, 2004 I was tortured with a method called "The Big Hang-up" [There are two forms in this torture: (1) With both hands cuffed behind the back and only toes touching the ground, one is hung by a rope that is tied to the metal window frames; (2) One hand of a practitioner is cuffed to one bunk bed and the other hand to another bed, and the two beds are pulled in the opposite directions. One feels extreme pain as the body is being pulled. See illustration on
/emh/articles/2004/11/17/54624.html]. I lost consciousness and the guards put me down. After I came to, they hung me back up. In the evening of May 14, 2004, the practitioners refused to answer roll call and the guards savagely beat us. On May 15, 2004, they again tortured me with the "the Big Hang-up." The handcuffs cut into my wrists. I lost the feeling in my arms, which turned black and blue.
Practitioner Zhu Xiangqin's letter to fellow practitioners: Right now, I am at Group 2, Division 1 of a women's prison. The practitioners here have been validating Falun Gong, opposing the persecution, clarifying the truth and offering peoples salvation. On August 30, 2002, I was stripped of my clothes on arrival and subjected to brainwashing. The guards didn't allow me to eat, have fluids or sleep. They handcuffed my hands behind my back, forced me to squat, and they punched, kicked and stomped on me. Other practitioners refused to recite the prison policies, to answer roll call and to squat. They refused to say they are inmates, and as result were detained in solitary confinement. They had their hands cuffed behind their backs, locked to shackles fixed onto the ground, and hung up and tortured with the Tiger Bench. They forbade me to eat or sleep, and often verbally abused and hit me. Practitioner Yu Xiulan at Division 2 had her hands cuffed behind her back, and was forced to squat and stand for long periods of time. Her feet were disabled from being shackled for extended periods of time. One of her wounds was three centimeters across. Her bones were exposed, yet she was still forced to stand for more than 40 days.
Fellow practitioners at Division 8 had their hands cuffed behind their backs. They were not permitted to sleep and were hung up. Practitioner Ren Shuxian was hung up for over 20 days. She jumped off a building and broke her pelvis and legs. The inmates jabbed the practitioners with needles. Practitioners who opposed the persecution were detained in solitary confinement. They tied the practitioners up, didn't allow them to use the toilet, held their eyes open with matchsticks, inserted sticks into the practitioners' vaginas, and tortured them with "the Big Hang-up." After the practitioners passed out, the perpetrators put the practitioners down and put drugs into their mouths. After they came to, the perpetrators hung them up again. From December 1 to December 12, they used electric batons and bamboo sticks to torture the practitioners. They whipped and electrically shocked the practitioners, kicked and hit the practitioners and cuffed their hands behind their backs. They also forced the practitioners to plow the snow. The practitioners were covered with bruises. In 2004, guards at Division 1 tortured practitioner Chu Qingfen with "The Big Hang-up" many times, which caused brain damage and injuries to her back.
Practitioner Zhu Xiangqin's letter to her husband: consult a lawyer and show him my letter about the persecution against me. File a lawsuit against Wang Xing, Liu Zhiqiang, Cong, heads of the Harbin Women's Prison; Yang Hua and Zhao Xiling, officials of Division 2; Zheng Jie, head of Division 8; Cui Hongmei and Xia Fengying, heads of Division 1. My life is constantly in danger here. Right now I'm being watched around the clock. In February 2003, guards Yu Yubo, Sun Qiuxia and Zhang Xuan stomped on my back so severely that I could not lie flat afterwards. I could not bend my back or sit. Inmates Yan Yaxia and Meng Xia hit me with bamboo sticks until my whole body turned black and blue. An egg-sized bump formed on one of my legs and I have no feeling in my thighs. My family came to visit me, and they refused to leave until they saw me in person. The perpetrators are afraid because they know that they are violating the law.
In 2000, practitioner Wang Bin in Daqing City was tortured to death. His family and other practitioners filed a lawsuit against Feng Xi, the official on duty, as well as three inmates. The plaintiffs won and received 200,000 Yuan in compensation. The five perpetrators were sentenced to 18 years, 12 years, 5 years and 3 years in prison.
