    Practitioners Missing After Going to Beijing to Appeal, or Disappeared from Forced Labor Camps


    1. Gong Kun disappeared from the Tuanhe Forced Labor Camp

    Falun Gong practitioner Gong Kun, from Nanchang County, Jiangxi Province, was a college student in Beijing. According to the Clearwisdom report in September 2005 he was detained in the Tuanhe Forced Labor Camp in Beijing at least until February 2003 in No.2 team, where he suffered persecution by the guards Wu Duozhi, Qin Fujun, Zhao Yinbo and others. There has been no news from him or about him since then..

    Falun Gong practitioner Lu Qiqi, 40 years old, 1.70 m tall, was abducted to the No. 3 team, Shayang Forced Labor Camp, Hubei Province. He was brainwashed for four months, but maintained his steadfast righteous thoughts. Under his influence, several collaborators became clear-headed again, and declared that their words and deeds under forced brainwashing were null and void, thereby greatly encouraging other detained practitioners. From then on, Lu Qiqi has been missing, and his whereabouts unclear.

    3. Four practitioners disappeared on their way to Beijing

    Four Falun Gong practitioners, including the Ding Lei sisters from Housing Bank, and Zhang Jiang and Lu Hongjiang from the Laiyang Electricity Bureau, disappeared on their way to Beijing to appeal.

    On September 19, 1999, Sun Biao went to Beijing to appeal for justice for Falun Gong and has been missing since that day.

    After the local police station learned that Sun Biao went to Beijing, they contacted Mr. Sun's wife Tong Qiaoying to issue a penalty of 5000 yuan, and promised that they would bring him back from Beijing with that money. Tong Qiaoying did not have enough money, so she borrowed 2000 yuan and gave it to an official at the police station, who did not give her any receipt. The police never went to Beijing to find Sun Biao. In January 2006, Tong Qiaoying remarried.

    Crimes of the Prison Doctor at Changliu Detention Center in Tonghua City

     Every Falun Gong practitioner detained in Changliu Detention Center in Tonghua City has been persecuted.

    At Changliu Detention Center every practitioner is forced to work over ten hours every day. The detention center director knows that forced labor is illegal, but he turns a blind eye to it. Falun Gong practitioners are provided with two meals per day: corn buns and radish soup. On Monday the bun is made with very crude flour. Daily necessities are sold there at two to three times fair market price.

    In November 2004, a Falun Gong practitioner wrote a letter to the director of a detention center (whose family name is Lu) informing him of the bad situation and asking for improvement. Lu secretly goaded a female guard, Li Xinchun, into punishing the practitioner. When the practitioner protested and demanded her right to freedom of belief, Li Xinchun dragged her from the cell to the yard of the detention center and beat her. Many guards and the team leader Jiang Hong were there, but none of them tried to stop the beating. The practitioner was beaten black and blue on her face and knees.

    Jiang Hongjie is the so called doctor at the Changliu Detention Center. He overcharges practitioners for medical treatments. A bottle of IV or salt water costs 100 yuan. Jiang incited inmate Jia Xiubo to force-feed Falun Gong practitioners. He also encouraged Jia to torture practitioners. When it was pointed out to Jiang that the force-feeding tube should be disinfected, Jiang said "It's clean enough to wash it with cold water. I am not afraid of being exposed." One time when the force-feeding tube was taken out of a practitioner's mouth it fell on the floor. Inmates said, "It's too dirty, throw it away." Jia Hongbo said, "Doctor Jiang would not allow it." Jiang Hongjie ordered male inmates to affix practitioners to a tiger bench for force feeding, pulling hair, grabbing their ears and squeezing practitioners' necks. Some kind hearted inmates wiped off the practitioner's throw-up. Jiang ordered them to stop doing that, "Leave the throw-up there." Jiang also went to cells to incite inmates to treat practitioners badly. With the encouragement of Jiang, Jia Xiubo added more salt when force-feeding practitioners in order to torture them. Some inmates could not eat after seeing such horrifying scenes.

    Practitioner Zhou Huijuan Tortured and Handicapped at 610 Office in Liaocheng City, Shandong Province

     Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Zhou Huijuan from Liaocheng City, Shandong Province has been illegally arrested by Chinese Communist Party (CCP) officials multiple times. Each time she suffered severe persecution. In March 2005 she was arrested in Beijing. Agents from the 610 Office in Liaocheng City, Shandong Province detained her in the so-called "Educational Transforming Base," where she was brainwashed and persecuted. She was injected with an unknown substance, and became handicapped. To this day, she cannot walk, and has not regained her memory.

    Zhou Huijuan, 29, was working in the Education Department of Wenxuan Middle School in the development district of Liaocheng City. She had traveled to Beijing to clarify the truth many times. She was arrested twice by CCP officials. On March 7, 2005, while she was shopping in a supermarket in Beijing, she was arrested and taken to a police station, where she was brutally force-fed, and passed out after a week of detention. To avoid responsibility for her condition, the Beijing police sent her to the 610 Office in her hometown.

    The Liaocheng City 610 Office sent her to a brainwashing center, or "Educational Transforming Base," where she suffered further persecution. She refused to cooperate and started a hunger strike to resist the persecution and injustice. The police often stuck tubes into her nose to force-feed her. Every time she vomited intensely and suffered severe stomach bleeding. After enduring several rounds of brutal forced-feeding, her body was in critical condition. She vomited blood, and started to have cramps. She was sent to Dongchangfu, the People's Hospital, where she was injected with unknown substances. After the injection, her eyesight quickly deteriorated, her whole body felt weak, she became paralyzed, and started to lose her memory.

    Ms. Zhou's parents went to the 610 Office to ask for her release. The head of 610 Office said viciously, "She cannot go home even if she dies here." After many requests he deceived them by saying she could go home as long as they wrote a pledge renouncing Falun Gong, and paid a deposit. But after they wrote the pledge and paid the deposit, the head of the 610 Office attempted to send her to the Liaocheng City Mental Hospital. Her parents firmly resisted and the persecution conspiracy didn't work.

    Zhou Huijuan has been illegally detained in the brainwashing center for the past year. Now she has lost her memory and cannot walk. She can no longer live independently.

    Changchun Practitioner Wang Peng's Health Declining due to Torture; His Family Forbidden to Send Him a Blanket

     Note: The following is a shortened version of a longer and more detailed article that appeared on the minghui.ca website (Chinese version of Clearwisdom.net).

    On March 20, 2006, Wang Peng and five or six other practitioners were transferred from Tiebei first detention center in Changchun to Shilin prison in Siping, Jilin Province. Wang Peng has been detained there for over one year. He did not even have a blanket.

    On March 22, 2006, his family came a long way to visit him in Shilin town, bringing with them a blanket and other luggage. Wang Peng was emaciated and weak as a result of torture. His voice was low. His family was not allowed to give him the blanket that they had brought for him. The police said that Falun Gong practitioners were not allowed to accept blankets.

    Ms. Yu Ruilian Arrested Again

     Note: The following is a shortened version of a longer and more detailed article that appeared on the minghui.ca website (Chinese version of Clearwisdom.net).

    Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Yu Ruilian from Hecheng Town, Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province is in her fifties. Her family does not know where she is. It was reported that she was arrested when she went out to clarify the truth recently.

    Ms. Yu Ruilian went to Beijing to appeal for justice for Falun Gong many times since the persecution started. She was illegally sentenced to one year of forced labor in 2000. During forced labor, she was cuffed and shackled yet still had to do heavy labor for 18 hours a day. After 6 months, she lost her eyesight, her legs became very weak, and she could not walk or stand well. She was refused admittance into Sanshui Labor Camp due to her poor health condition, and was released early upon her family's request.

    Since February 2001, Ms. Yu Ruilian's whole family has had to abandon their home to avoid arrest. Her daughter Zhang Jin'e and her son Zhang Jinhai are both Falun Gong practitioners. Her husband does not practice but he was still forced to undergo brainwashing in a drug rehabilitation center. Her daughter Ms. Zhang Jin'e graduated from college in 1999 and found a job, but she was fired due to the persecution, and was sentenced to two years of forced labor in Beijing.

Between March 9 and March 21, Xin Shirong continued to hold a hunger strike at the detention center to protest the illegal detention. Her life is in danger. Her family went to Qianguo County Police Department, the detention center and Hongquan Township Police Station to request her release. Wu Mingli hid and refused to meet with them, and the police passed responsibility.

    On the morning of March 21, Wu Mingli sent deathly ill Xin Shirong to the Heizuizi Women's Forced Labor Camp in Changchun City. The labor camp authorities refused to accept her due to her poor physical condition. She is still being held at the Qianguo County Detention Center where she is being illegally persecuted.

She also had more than twenty conditions including heart disease, yet the detention center authorities refused to release her. During detention, Sun Xiulan was twice sent to Jinan Prison. The prison doctor who examined her was shocked and refused to admit her, which is why she is still being held at the detention center. We are worried about her health.

After her release she lived in exile for several months. In February 2006, Gao Huifang went to Chengdu City to take care of fellow Falun Gong practitioner Liu Ying who was also once held at a mental hospital.

On September 12, 2005, the Xinglongtai District Court held a secret trial during which the four practitioners were sentenced to 14 years, 15 years, 13 years and 12 years in prison.

    Hu Zhehui's husband received threats after he obtained the verdict and dared not appeal for his wife. Hou Yunfei's family didn't receive the verdict until the end of September 2005. They went to different lawyers but none of them dared to take the case, fearing government reprisals. Xin Minduo and Bao Juncen's family obtained the verdict through special channels.

    According to a February 10, 2006 report on the Minghui website, the Falun Gong practitioners' families did not get any information, even after they went to various people.
