[Mainland, China] As July 22 approaches, practitioners are spreading the truth of Falun Dafa to society using different means
The publication of the new articles of Teacher greatly encouraged practitioners who have been practicing cultivation under very difficult conditions. They have gradually recovered the group studies of Falun Dafa and the group exercises. Sometimes, they get together to exchange experiences. Some practitioners have been doing exercises in public areas such as in the parks, on the mountains, and by the rivers for more than a month.
The anniversary of July 22 is coming. Practitioners are trying various methods to tell the people the truth about Falun Gong. Some downloaded the materials from the Minghui Net and showed them to the officials in their workplaces. Some wrote letters to the government, schools, and work units. Some distributed materials about Falun Gong to friends, relatives, and colleagues, or distributed or posted them in public areas.
During this process, the evil power has been persecuting Falun Gong practitioners. Around July 1, 40 practitioners were arrested, detained, beaten, and fined. But practitioners were not afraid. In a city, practitioners came out again on July 15 to tell people the truth of Falun Dafa (for example, distributing letters to mailboxes, posting or distributing letters in the markets and parks, etc.) This has had great impact on society. Many people have learned the truth about Falun Dafa, and have been clear that Falun Dafa is righteous.
[Shijiazhuang] Let the Truth of Falun Gong Spread over the Whole City
Currently, the materials about the truth of Falun Gong have been spreading in society. The materials can be found on streets, in the mailboxes, on the bulletin boards, and on the bikes.
Some practitioners were greatly encouraged by the fact that there were materials about Falun Gong in their own mailboxes. Many more people have become clear about the dirty acts of the government in slandering at Falun Gong, and learned the truth of Falun Gong.
At the same time, the police in Shijiazhuang also started their actions. For example, they even started to monitor the public mailboxes. It was also reported that the police stations and the residence committees are working together to arrest people without any legal procedures. They can lock people up, but they cannot lock up their hearts.
[Beijing] After the exposure of detention of soldier practitioners in mental hospital, the hospital is escalating persecutions
After the cases of Li Qiuxia and Wang Ning were reported on the internet, the 261 Hospital and the Navy General Hospital have received many phone calls, asking them why they were persecuting Falun Gong practitioners who are perfectly normal mentally. The authorities of the Navy General Hospital got very angry and are investigating who had leaked the news. Meanwhile, they are imposing even greater pressures on Wang Ning and harassing Wang's family members.
To avoid criticisms, the authorities have secretly transferred Zhao Xinli, an officer in Army 89605. Zhao's whereabouts is unknown. It appears that higher authorities were involved in making the decision.
[Zhuhai City] Despite of "thoughts transformations", the number of Falun Gong practitioners is increasing
The city government and the police department of Zhuhai City of Guangzhou Province have been persecuting benign Falun Gong practitioners using various illegal means. For example, Wang Yulan, a local Falun Gong practitioner invited 9 other practitioners to her home in order to share cultivation experiences. However, before they started conversation, the police broke in, and arrested these people without giving any reason. All of them were detained. Wang Yulan and other two practitioners are still in custody and they may face sentences. They are still in great suffering.
During the detention of practitioners, police officers took turns to interrogate them without stop. Meanwhile, they also imposed physical punishments on practitioners. In the communist China, it is a crime for practitioners to get together to chat.
According to the office 610 (an office used to persecute Falun Gong practitioners): "after a year-long thoughts transformation work, the number of Falun Gong did not decrease, instead, it has even increased." Practitioners are striving to be good people, and no government could stop people from being good people.
[Beijing] Fangshan district and Cheng-guan district are escalating persecutions
In July, the communist official of the Fangshan district of Beijing, Zhou, hired six thugs, to beat practitioners in Dongguadi Village, Raolefu Village, and Hongsi Village. They would continue to beat practitioners if the latter refused to pay the heavy fine and write the pledge to recant.
In Hongsi Village, a Falun Gong practitioner has a mother-in-law in her 90s, a small child, and a handicapped husband. The whole family has only 600 Yuan's income per month. She was fined 3000 Yuan this time.
More seriously, on the morning of July 10, these thugs kidnapped 14 Falun Gong practitioners, and locked them in a garage without windows. They then shock these practitioners with electric batons, and demanded each of them to pay 2000 Yuan as fine. Most of the practitioners were aged ones. Some of family members paid the fine, but many practitioners refused to give in. A practitioner lost his consciousness because of the tortures.
[Chengdu]
At the end of June, the practitioners illegally detained in the detention center of the Jiuru Village of Chengdu City held a two-day hunger strike, protesting the tortures and arbitrary fines against them. The police were forced to apologize. But the detention center still prohibited the family members of practitioners to visit them. The detention center also demanded 50 Yuan whenever the family members wanted to send in clothes and other necessities for everyday life. The communist regime is trying every means to bully the most peaceful group of people and rob their money.
