Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Zhao Yuqin, 53, from Dadong District in Shenyang City, Liaoning Province had been illegally arrested, detained and sent to brainwashing centers for repeated persecution by personnel of the wicked Chinese Communist Party. She was forced to become destitute and homeless to avoid arrest. After enduring years of harassment, surveillance and persecution for a long time, Zhao Yuqin died on February 24, 2006.

Zhao Yuqin had contracted a blood disease long ago. Before her retirement, she worked in the health clinic of Shenyang Ceramics Factory and was constantly exposed to radioactive rays. This work seriously damaged her body and she could not work or live normally. Not long after practicing Falun Gong, her illness vanished completely. After her body was restored to health, she returned to her work post.

After July 1999, when the wicked Party started persecuting Falun Gong, Ms. Zhao Yuqin went to Beijing in October to appeal and clarify the facts. She was arrested, detained and sent to brainwashing centers. She was persecuted this way five times. In December 2001, she was arrested by officers from the local police station and sent to Shenyang Sitaizi for a detention of 15 days.

In August 2002, Ms. Zhao Yuqin was captured by lawless personnel of the local police station and taken to Beida camp brainwashing center. Later she walked out with her righteous thoughts and had little choice but to become homeless to avoid being arrested again. In July 2003, the local police station, in conspiracy with the neighborhood administration office, again sent officers to her home to arrest her. She jumped out from the second floor window of her home. After that she was destitute and homeless for half a year.

In December 2003, Zhao Yuqin once again was sent to Shenyang Zhangshi brainwashing center.

Because of years of harassment, surveillance and persecution from the lawless officials of the wicked Party, Ms. Zhao Yuqin's body and mind suffered enormous damage. As a result of the relentless persecution, Zhao Yuqin died on February 24, 2006.

Nanmusi Women's Labor Camp officials in Zizhong, Sichuan Province (telephone: 86-832-5212050) have rampantly persecuted Falun Gong practitioners for a long time.

I was illegally imprisoned in Nanmusi Women's Labor Camp twice and recently released. Hereby I am exposing its persecution to the world and hope all kind-hearted people will condemn this 21st century atrocity that was and is still happening in the Chinese Communist Party's so-called "harmonious society." Highlighted below are some of the indecencies, humiliations, abuses and torment the Falun Gong practitioners were subjected to in the Nanmusi Women's Forced Labor Camp:

The guards forced drug addicts to remove the clothes from Falun Gong practitioners who refused to be "reformed" and doused them with cold water from head to toe in the cold winter. The practitioners were trembling from the cold. Other tortures include forcing them to drink a lot of cold water but forbidding restroom use; hitting practitioners with a iron clothes rack until they bled; burning the private parts with cigarette butts, inserting toothbrushes into the vagina. This was happening every day.

Falun Gong practitioners were mainly detained in the fourth and seventh teams. At present, the seventh team has more than 50 people while the fourth team has more than 40 people. The seventh team was more vicious. The original seventh team head Zhang Xiaofang's evil conduct was disclosed many times by the Minghui/Clearwisdom website. Later Li Qi became the head. Now it is Ren Fengming. Deputy head Wu Yunhui, political head Wang Hongmei, and guards Liao Jueru, Lan Xiumin and Liu Daocui, are all directly involved in torturing practitioners or even murdering practitioners. The guards forced drug addicts to carry out the persecution of Dafa practitioners.

The guards would tie up practitioners at any time and forbid them to rest at night or deprive them of sleep for a long time. Prohibiting restroom use was even worse. If Dafa practitioners' endurance reached the limit and they were compelled to relieve themselves into their clothing, the drug addicts would throw the excrement onto the practitioner's head, body and bed. Furthermore, practitioners' miserable cries from brutal beating and torture can be heard every night.

The guards handed the steadfast practitioners to drug addicts and said wickedly, "You have to 'convert' her today." Under the threat from the guards and with the temptation for rewards and term reductions, these criminals used all manner of ruthless methods to persecute Dafa practitioners. These drug addicts are called "personal cangues" and all are vicious persons the guards had chosen. The seventh team's most virulent "personal cangues" are Li Jing (From Qu County), Song Yimei (from Yibin), Yang Huali (from Shifang). The methods they used to torture Dafa practitioners are sinister and ruthless. The pain and suffering of these tortures was worse than death. These drug addicts are never lenient. In addition, Xu Zheng (from Mianyang), Yu Tingting (from Xichang), Ye Yuhan (from Shifang), Mai Zhonglian (from Xichang) are all ruthless hatchet men who inhumanly abuse Dafa practitioners.

Because Dafa practitioners upheld the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance everywhere and at every moment, they didn't complain or show hatred when humiliated and were kind all the times, many "personal cangues" were moved. Whenever the guards discovered which "personal cangue" was sympathetic toward Dafa practitioners, that "personal cangue" would be immediately transferred to another team that had a much more intense workload. Therefore, any "personal cangue" didn't dare to be lenient in their abuse of practitioners. The more violent they were, the more reward and appreciation they got from the guards.

Under the intense pressure and with no justice in sight, many people suffered a mental collapse. I knew five persons who suffered a mental collapse. They are Ye Peiqi, Yang Shaopei, Yang Hongying, Tong Guiqin and one anonymous. One steadfast practitioner, Lu Yanfei, was a former women's director from Leshan City in Sichuan Province who had been named as national top ten women heroine. She was illegally sentenced to forced labor. She is still confined in solitary confinement in the Nanmusi Women's Forced Labor Camp. Because she refused to give up Falun Gong, she had experienced all the tortures mentioned above. I once saw in person that she was beaten by more than 20 drug addicts. She was beaten by a "personal cangue" named Lin Yan (from Ziyang). She is now disfigured and has suffered a mental collapse from torture; however, the torture continues.

Dafa practitioner Gong Xincan from Shifang could not endure the inhuman suffering and torture; she jumped from fourth level in the seventh team's buildings, but survived. (Note: suicide and self-mutilation are not in line with Dafa teachings) Her forehead hit the ground first and led to a brain injury. After the guards sent her to the hospital for rescue, she was still in danger. Being afraid to take on the responsibility, the guards called her family member to take her back. Internally they just said that she was careless and fell. Dafa practitioner Luo Biqiong from Nanchong was also unable to endure the suffering and jumped from the fourth floor. She had a broken back and injured foot. After a two-month treatment, the guards did not release her. Currently she is still bedridden in the labor camp.

All practitioners and the detainees are forced to work. Most Dafa practitioners are in their 50s to 60s. Their hair had turned gray and their eyes dim. Their hands and feet are no longer agile. However, they are still suffering from torture and are forced to work.

The most brutal torture Dafa practitioners are forced to undergo is brainwashing that is aimed at destroying practitioners' conscience. Practitioners were forced to study other religions' books, read books that defame Falun Gong, buy these books and watch TV programs that defame Falun Gong. After each day's brainwashing session, they were required to write critical comments and slander of Master and Dafa, as so-called "ideological understanding."

All practitioners benefit from Dafa. Many practitioners fully recovered from all their illnesses after practicing Falun Gong. Their xinxing rose, which helped them to strengthen their belief in Dafa practice. Ordering them to slander Dafa and Master is more painful than death. That is why they chose suffering instead of criticizing Master and Dafa. This kind of torture is like forcing a firm Christian to slander Jesus, or forcing an ordinary person to speak disrespectfully of a beloved parent who give birth to him. One cannot imagine such agonizing, overwhelming mental torment. This is what the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) calls a "harmonious society."

After I was released, I heard about the Sujiatun Concentration Camp, where the brutal CCP harvests thousands of Falun Gong practitioners' organs. It is heartless, barbaric conduct. I am at a loss for words to express my grief. Experiencing so much inhuman persecution for years, I have one hundred percent reason to believe that this is completely factual. Several thousand people's organs were taken while the victims were alive. That is a barbaric conduct that is one hundred times worse than death. It is completely unimaginable and unacceptable for any normal individual who still has a little bit of conscience and human nature remaining! This world tragedy is the shame of mankind! It is tarnish on the entire human history!

Witnesses like us who experienced persecution in person strongly appeal to the international community, to each country and each person to condemn and stop the CCP's atrocities! Clean this entire humanity's shame! Return justice and rule of law to China! I hope that each and every person whose conscience has not vanished might stand up and tell the wicked CCP "Stop the persecution. Stop killing. Respect human dignity!"

No practitioner wants to recall the miserable suffering they experienced in the concentrations camps (labor camps) under the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) regime. I was shocked when reading a report that stated the purpose of subjecting Dafa practitioners to medical checkups was to remove their organs. I realized then that at one time I was mostly silent. Now I am coming forward to awaken people's conscience, so that together we can expose the demonic atrocities the CCP agents committed and are still committing.

It was in late November 2001, the second day after we returned from a labor site some distance away. The police officer in charge suddenly came into my cell and ordered me to pack my belongings, saying that they would send me back to the labor site. This was quite unusual, because the work team that was working at the site would soon be finished and they were to come back. I said I did not want to go. The officer then left.

The environment there had already become relatively relaxed as a result of our truth-clarification, and some people had already gained some positive understanding about Dafa. I was able to do the Falun Gong exercises and send forth righteous thoughts. We achieved all these with hunger strikes. I did not want to lose this environment; besides, I did not want to cooperate with the persecutors. I also knew that the vicious police would not leave the matter at that.

Prison inmates at the Guanshanzi Concentration Camp were also monitoring Dafa practitioners. We had become "prisoners of inmates." Two of the inmates were assigned to "supervise" me. They would get a day's deduction in their term for each day they

"supervised" me. This was a big reward from the inmates' point of view, as for them one day in the camp seemed like a year. The police took advantage of this mentality to incite inmates to persecute Dafa practitioners. So, the two "supervisors" did not want me to go either.

Not long after, I was put in handcuffs and locked up in a small solitary cell. I was handcuffed onto a metal ring on the wall for days. They shaved my head to humiliate me. I started a hunger strike to protest. Four days later, the team working at the labor site returned. I stopped the hunger strike and asked to go back to the team. They did not release me from the small cell. Two more days passed and the skin around my wrists started to fester and I developed symptoms of lymphatic inflammation. I asked my "supervisors" to tell the guards. Prison doctor Zhang Fan came to take a look and said that I needed to take medication; otherwise my armpits would become ulcerated. The doctor said I needed to take intravenous Ciprofloxacin [an antibiotic], two bottles of fluid at a time.

I had the first infusion in the prison clinic. The second time it was done in the small cell. I noticed that unlike before, the doctor was extremely careful with the medicine this time, so I became suspicious of the medicine. However, if I refused to take medication, there would be more severe persecution. So, I sat on the toilet bucket, hooked up to the infusion. When there was no one watching, I would disconnect the line from the syringe and let the medicine run into the pot. However, as blood would run into the syringe needle, I had to put the line back onto the needle before the blood ran through. After a few times of doing this, the 100 ml bottle of medicine soon ran out. The doctor changed the bottle. I did the same thing again, to let the medicine run out. In less than half an hour the fluid was gone. Later I said to them that I did not need any medicine any more. "Is this up to you?" The doctor rudely countered. I was feeling unwell and wondered if it was from the medicine they put into my body.

The third day they put me on an infusion again. The police had become suspicious and came to check from time to time. Perhaps they felt that it was not normal for the medicine to run through so quickly. I took a chance and pulled the needle out of the vein and left it in place under the adhesive tape used to hold the needle. This way, the police could not see anything on the surface, but the medicine ran into the pot along the back of my hand. This went on for five days. In the end they stopped giving me the medication due to my strong resistance.

Afterwards, I felt that my memory became sluggish. One day, the hospital people insisted that I must go for a health exam, even though I said I did not want to go. I was determined then, thinking that I must not just go along with what the evildoers wanted of me. I should, however, not handle the situation in a tit for tat manner. I thought about it and suddenly had an idea!

After I was taken to the Guanzishan Hospital, the doctor took my blood pressure and wrote out a list of tests for me to take. They refused to show me the names of the tests, so I refused to let them take blood from me. I wanted to do what I had planned. Consequently, they took me to have an electrocardiogram and scan. They did a particularly careful kidney scan and told me to give them a urine sample when we returned to the ground floor. I told them I did not have any urine right now, but they said I had to provide a urine sample anyway. I said they would have to give me some time and leave me alone; otherwise I could not do it. I told them they must close the door. When they could not see me, I sucked out some blood from my gums and spit it into the urine cup with some saliva. Due to the persecution, and the fact that I had not been able to brush my teeth ever since I was sent to the small solitary cell, my gums bled easily. I then urinated a bit and mixed it with what I spit in the cup. Then I handed it over. Afterwards, prison doctor Zhang Fan demanded 300 yuan from me for the test.

I always felt that what I did was not upright and dignified, and that is why in the past I was too embarrassed to mention this. Now, after the Sujiatun Concentration Camp was revealed, I thought perhaps my experience had been a historical arrangement, that I was able to escape that calamity, so that I could tell people about the evilness of the CCP.

I had never believed that the "health checkup" was necessary, but I had never imagined that the purpose of the checkup was for me to become an organ provider. All these atrocities were the direct results of the CCP's evil policy, "ruin their [Falun Gong's] reputation, bankrupt them financially and destroy them physically."

At this point, I recalled another incident; whenever newcomers arrived, all of them were asked about their blood type and had blood samples taken in the first month after their arrival. I refused to have my blood drawn at the time.

On the evening of March 5, 2006, Officer Chen Gang from the Kandan Police Station in the Fengtai District, Beijing, along with several officers from the Fengtai Police Bureau, went to practitioner Yu Hongmei's home and illegally arrested her. She is being held at the Fengtai Detention Center.

On Feburary 24, undercover agents from the Beijing State Security Bureau invaded practitioner Liu Yanqin's home, took her into custody, and held her at the Fengtai Police Bureau. The incident traumatized Ms. Liu's daughter. When Ms. Liu's husband came home from work, he was too frightened to do anything about it.

Ms. Liu is 50 years old, and her home address is Wujialou Jiajia Garden, #6 Building, Apartment 7-501. On February 24, while she and her daughter were watching TV, they suddenly heard knocking at their door. As Ms. Liu's daughter opened the door, the undercover agents, along with plainclothes officers from the Tiejiangying Police Station - a total of nine people - burst into their home. They ransacked the house and confiscated the Falun Gong books and materials.

After this illegal search, they took Ms. Liu to the Tiejiangying Police Station for interrogation. They took her daughter along as well. At around 4:00 a.m. the next day, they transferred Ms. Liu to the Fengtai Police Bureau.

Police arrested practitioner Liu Yuying, in her 40s, during the period of the National Congress Meeting. She is currently being held at the Fengtai Detention Center. Police ransacked Ms. Liu's home and confiscated her Falun Gong books and materials.

At about 7:00 p.m. on February 22, officers from the Shiliuzhuang Police Station of the Fengtai District arrested practitioner Ms. Su Menghua at her residence, the dormitory of the Beijing Third Leather Factory.

Police arrested Ms. Han Sumei, a practitioner from the Fengtai District. She is currently being held at the Fengtai Detention Center. This is the eighth time police have arrested and detained her.

Wuling Prison captors torture prisoners brutally.

Although the chief of the prison and the heads of each prison ward all signed a guarantee stating, "No torture of Falun Gong practitioners; guarantee the safety of Falun Gong practitioners' lives," they still beat practitioners so brutally that each practitioner who has been incarcerated there has physical injuries. Neither their health nor their lives have been protected at all.

Here are a few examples:

Practitioner Gu Zhihui in the 3rd Group is still under strictly controlled monitoring for refusing to work.

Practitioner Xiao Yuanxue in the 4th Group is already 60 years old. Prison guard Meng beat him because his voice was too soft when he greeted the officer before entering the gate.

Practitioner Mr. Wang Xuejun, who had been in the 2nd Group, died suddenly in 2005. The guard lied, saying that Mr. Wang died because he was sick but refused to take medicine. It was said that 69-year-old Mr. Wang was hung up and beaten for doing the Falun Gong exercises. The guards at one time broke his food bowl in the dining hall for eating too slowly.

In November 2005, Wuling Prison tried to take some video of the prison to apply for the "provincial model prison" award. Practitioner Mr. Zhou Zixian in the 4th Group refused to put on the prison uniform. The leader of 4th Group, Huang, ordered the criminal inmates to force him to do so. He also told the criminals that they could do whatever they wanted as long as they didn't beat Mr. Zhou to death. The criminals tore Mr. Zhou's clothes and tied his hands. Mr. Zhou shouted, "Falun Dafa is good! Stop persecuting good people." His voice, which was usually very soft, shocked everybody. He was hung up in the prison factory. The guards also hung some signs on his neck. The signs had words attacking and slandering Falun Gong and its founder. Mr. Zhou, however, was very kind to his captors. He told them that doing bad things would meet with karmic retribution.

The following day at lunch, the criminals forced him to put on the prison uniform and tied his hands behind his back. They pulled him to the dining hall. On the way there, he kept shouting, "Falun Dafa is good!" The guards then locked him in the solitary cell for two months for shouting in a public place. Mr. Zhou did not have a coat or shoes in this cell during the winter. His feet hurt from the cold weather. His daughter came to see him from Taiyuan City, which is 1,000 miles away, but his captors didn't let her see him.

It was cold and damp in the solitary cell. Mr. Zhou's hair turned grey and his eyesight got worse, too. Two days before the 2006 Chinese New Year, the new chief of the third team of the 4th Group, Hu Wei, came to the solitary cell to release him, but Hu Wei beat him badly so that Mr. Zhou's face was swollen. Mr. Zhou started a hunger strike to protest the torture. During the 12 days on the hunger strike he was beaten badly several times. He was also hung up for eight days. On February 5, five to six guards beat Mr. Zhou so badly in the hallway that his hands bled. The guards who beat Mr. Zhou that day were: leader of the 4th Group Zhang Xiankui, deputy leader Zhang, political instructor Zhang Xuebiao, and deputy political instructor Sun Hai.

Practitioner Zhang Peng was transferred from the Ruanjiang Detention Center. In November 2005, since he refused to wear the prison uniform, guards handcuffed him behind his back. This is a very brutal torture, which can cause people to become handicapped. The guards pulled one of Mr. Zhang's arms over his shoulder and the other up behind his back. Then they handcuffed his hands together. Mr. Zhang was forced to bend down. He was immobilized like this for four or five hours and could not straighten up after his release. The guards locked him in a solitary cell in the afternoon.

A few days later he was sent to an intensive jail room. He was released from that room in December 30, 2005. After being released he still refused to put on the prison uniform or wear a prison number button or put on a yellow belt over his clothes. He refused to greet the guards or do the labor. Mr. Zhang Peng also kept asking guards to stop torturing Zhou Zixian. He asked the guard in his team to hand his appeal to the prison chief. He was hung up for an entire morning because of this request.

On February 3, 2006, since he didn't put on the jail's yellow belt over his clothes, guards hung him up at dinnertime. That night several guards took him to an office. They took off Mr. Zhang's pants and beat his buttocks with a bamboo stick. He was badly injured and bled. Later, they locked him in the special jail room. It was snowing and raining that night. They took away his sweater, coat, and pants. They refused to give his clothes back to him, although the practitioners in the 5th Group started a hunger strike to protest. The guards who tortured him were: the deputy chief of the prison, Wu Guogang; the chief of the 5th Group, Zhang Wenjun; the deputy chief of the 5th Group, Li Chunhua; the political head of the 5th Group, Dai Minggui; the head of the first team, Liu Yongwen; and the political heads of the first team, Gao Shibiao and Xiong Chaohui.

After the tortures in the Wuling Prison were exposed on the Internet, practitioners in China and overseas wrote letters and called the prison, clarifying the truth. Some guards learned the truth and stopped the torture. The environment in the prison changed a little bit but is still bad.

The prison officials are very brutal to the non-practitioner prisoners, too. The evil atmosphere pervades the entire prison. People often hear the guards say, "Hang So and So up." It is very painful to be hung up. The victim often loses consciousness after being hung up for a long time. Sometime the victim's hands bleed. The guards often extend the time they leave a victim hanging whenever they feel like it: half a day, one day, several days, even half a month. If the criminals cannot finish their work assignments, guards beat their buttocks with a bamboo stick.

The guards also force them to lie down on the ground and insult them. Some guards torture the criminals so badly that somebody might become insane or even kill themselves. For example, Xie Wenqing in the fourth team was tortured to death by guards Pi, Zhang, and Yao in 2004. One criminal in the second team was tortured so badly that he killed himself later. The prison gave his family 80,000 yuan in hush money to put an end to the matter. In 2005, a criminal in the fourth team was hung up and beaten and became traumatized. He was sent to a hospital but died later.

Prisoners don't have free time. Their only breaks are on some important holidays. They are forced to work 12 hours--and sometimes even 14 to 15 hours--a day. The work environment is full of toxic dust, but the prisoners don't have any protection. Some of them have developed lung disease. When the government officers came to inspect the prison, the prison shortened the work hours. The officials ordered the prisoners to tell the inspectors that they always worked eight-hour shifts and that they did have safety protection devices when they worked in the toxic environment.

They don't have good care when they get sick. The equipment and medicine in the prison hospital are very primitive. The sick prisoners still have to work, even if they have a doctor's documentation that they should not work. If they refuse to work, the guards verbally abuse and even beat them. The guards never keep their promises and neither do they obey the law. When prisoners try to assert their legal rights, the guards always reply, "Do you have rights here?"

At the end of 2005, Wuling Prison officials applied for the "provincial model prison" award. While the prison was being inspected, they observed the rules such as an eight-hour work shift and a nap-break after lunch. But after the inspectors left, everything went back to the way it was before. There are some appeals letterboxes in the prison, which are supposed to be checked for mail every seven days. Those who wrote petitions were actually beaten, while none of the guards were ever punished for their bad behavior. For example, one prisoner in the fifth team was beaten by Yang Jinsheng, a guard in the second sub-team of the fifth team, for writing a letter to report that a prisoner was beaten by a guard. This prisoner was beaten so badly that it took a long time for him to recover.

The fourth team is the most evil team. The guards there often torture prisoners severely. They didn't stop torturing even when the prison was applying for the "provincial model prison" award. Hanging them up, locking their hands behind their backs, beating them with a bamboo stick, letting them bake in the strong sun, and forcing them to beat each other with wooden sticks are some of the tortures they often subjected the prisoners to.

Mr. Liang Wencai Is Tortured to Death

Mr. Liang of Sanhe City, Hebei Province, age 64, started practicing Falun Gong in 1996. After Jiang Zemin first began the persecution of Falun Gong on July 20, 2999, Mr. Liang went to Beijing to explain the truth. However, he was taken back home to Sanhe City for persecution. In June 2001, while he was distributing truth clarifying materials in Xianghe, police officers from the Shuyang Police Station illegally arrested him and jailed him. Because he refused to disclose his name and address, the police thrashed his back with rubber tubes and then restrained him on a bed with his arms and legs spread apart in a death row cell.

The old man went on a hunger strike to protest the persecution and explained the truth to prisoners. In the end, even prisoners shouted along with him, "Falun Dafa is good." Three days later, he walked right out of jail with righteous thoughts. From then on, he was unable to live a normal life or do any practice practice due to constant interruption by members of the Chinese Communist Party. His health conditions worsened, and he passed away by the end of October 2003.

Senior Practitioners Died from Persecution in Sichuan Province

Ms. Li Shuya, age 76, was a practitioner in the Wujin District of Xin Jin County in Sichuan Province. She went to Beijing to explain the truth in December 2000. Local police arrested her, took her home, and demanded a huge ransom for her release. After that, Ms. Li explained the truth to local non-practitioners but was always on the run from local evil officials' stakeouts. During the Chinese Communist party's persecution against Falun Gong and Falun Gong practitioners for the last six years, her mind and body suffered a great deal. She died on January 30, 2006.

Mr. Yin Xiguo, age 62, lived in Dayudao Village in Rongcheng City, Shandong Province. He started learning Falun Gong in 1997. After July 20, 1999, the police ransacked his home many times and threatened him. Police also detained his wife, Zhou Dienwu, and imprisoned her many times. On October 25, 2005, his wife was again arrested and sent to forced labor for two years in the Shandong Wang Chuan Forced Labor Camp. Under this great pressure, Mr. Yuan suddenly suffered a stroke in January 2006 and died on March 11, 2006. Before his death, the labor camp did not even allow his wife to see him one last time.

1. [Haicheng, Liaoning Province] Mr. Hu Dawei Illegally Sentenced and Imprisoned at Siping Shiling Prison

Mr. Hu Dawei is a Falun Gong practitioner from Haicheng City, Liaoning Province. On June 23, 2005, he was taken back to Tonghua City by Ji Guiquan, Tian Yuenan, and Shen Shuheng from the National Security Team of Dongchang District Police Bureau in Tonghua and was "illegally detained" at the Tonghua County Kuaida Detention Center for eight months. In February 2006, he was illegally and secretly sentenced to 11 years imprisonment. On March the first or third, he was sent to Shiling Jail in Siping City, Jilin Province to be persecuted.

2. [Datong City, Shanxi Province] Practitioners Ms. Tong Yuemei and Mr. Li Lixin in Critical Condition

Practitioners Ms. Tong Yuemei and Mr. Li Xin from Datong City, Shandong Province, are detained at the Yin County Detention Center in Shuozhou City. Suffering from inhuman tortures, their lives are now in imminent danger.

3. [Suining City, Sichuan Province] Mr. Wang Quanjin and Eight Other Practitioners Illegally Sentenced

On February 22, 2006, the 610 Office from Suining, the police, the prosecutor, and the court sentenced nine practitioners to long prison terms. Mr. Wang Quanjin was sentenced for six years, Mr. Quan Ming four years, Mr. He Zubin five years, Zhang Zhijun 14 years, Ms. Guo Dingmin seven years, Mr. Tan Xiaoming four years, Mr. Hu Shicai five years, Mr. Wen Juping ten years and Mr. Yang Zuxiang nine years.

4. [Guizhou City] Mr. Ye Pinglin Persecuted to Death at the Zhongba Forced Labor Camp

Those involved in persecuting Mr. Ye Pinglin to death were: Yang Renshou, a political head, and drug addict inmates. Mr. Ye Penglin was detained at the Special Management Team for Falun Gong. During detention, Mr. Ye developed an illness as a result of being tortured. However, his health gradually improved. But after he was called to "have a conversation" with Yang Renshou, his health worsened, and he passed away on June 20, 2002. His mother was not allowed to collect his belongings until a few months later.

One week after Mr. Ye Pinglin died, practitioners who were still detained at the forced labor camp went on a hunger strike to protest the persecution. However, they ended up being cruelly beaten by the Police Security Team. Practitioner Mr. Wu Song was beaten until he knelt down on the ground by the security team leader in order to "demonstrate" to the others.

5. [Heilongjiang Province] "Three Rivers" Construction Bureau Administration Police Arrest Practitioner Ms. Cao Xiufang

On the morning of March 30, 2006, six police officers broke into Ms. Cao Xiufang's home, ransacked it, and then abducted her to the "Three Rivers" Construction Bureau Brainwashing Center. On the following day, four police officers went to her sister-in-law's home and harassed them. Now, Ms. Cao's elderly mother has no one to take care of her.

6. [Tonghua City, Jilin Province] Practitioner Ms. Pan Xiaomin Arrested

Ms. Pan Xiaomin is from Tonghua City. On March 20, 2006, she was followed when she was handing out truth-clarification materials. At around 2 p.m. , about four to five police officers from the Dongchang District Police Bureau in Tonghua City and the Tuanjie Police Station broke into her home and carried her into a vehicle. They also confiscated a personal computer, a printer, a cutting machine, a copy of Zhuan Falun, and some of Teacher's new articles. Ms. Pan is now detained at the Changliu Detention Center in Tonghua City.

7. [Tonghua City, Jilin Province] Mr. Wang Guiming Persecuted Until the Brink of Death at Shiling Prison in Siping

Falun Gong practitioner Mr. Wang Guming is from Tonghua City. In 2002, he was "illegally sentenced" to five years imprisonment by the National Security Team of Dongchang District Police Station in Tonghua City. The Tonghua police tortured Mr. Wang until his ribs broke because of his steadfast belief in Falun Gong.

At Jilin Prison, Mr. Wang was cruelly beaten for eight consecutive days and nights because of his firm belief in Falun Gong. As a result, he developed pneumothorax. Authorities in Jilin Province transfer steadfast Falun Gong practitioners to Tieling Prison for further persecution.

Recently, it has been said that Mr. Wang is hospitalized and his life is in imminent danger. This resulted from being cruelly tortured when he went on a hunger strike to protest the persecution.
