3. [Beijing] Crimes Before the Opening of the 16th People's Congress Conference
News from Beijing: the Chinese Communist Party is going to hold the 16th People's Congress Conference. On the one hand, Jiang's totalitarian regime in Beijing has spent large amounts of money and manpower trying to sugarcoat a so-called "millennium;" on the other hand, Beijing City's Chief of Police Administration is holding a special "16th Safety and Protection Work Conference" with around 2000 police representatives from Beijing in attendance.
The Beijing "610 Office" [a bureau specifically created by the Chinese government to persecute Falun Gong. It has absolute power over each level of administration in the Party, as well as over the political and judiciary branches] system has been especially active. During the day, they check for IDs house-by-house and arrest Falun Gong practitioners. At night, they secretly monitor practitioner's movements and try to stop them from interrupting television broadcasts and displaying Falun Gong banners; the local neighbourhood watch has also been forcing practitioners to write so-called "guarantees" and have been reporting the actions and whereabouts of some active practitioners. Recently due to collaborators and police searches, quite a few practitioners have been arrested.
Before National Day on October 1st, the "610 Office" from Shijingshan started to frantically persecute practitioners. Babao Mountain and Bajiao police stations have already started to force practitioners into brainwashing classes.

Officer Xu Shaobin from the Political Protection Unit in Nongan County, Jilin Province has illegally arrested and severely beaten many Falun Gong practitioners and has used the persecution of practitioners as a means to climb up his career ladder. On August 3, Xu Shaobin and a group of other police officers forcefully took female practitioner Zhao Xiuxiang from her home. Xu Shaobin, Officer Liu and other officers started to beat Zhao inhumanly, causing her to lose consciousness repeatedly. She sustained severe injuries to her back, face, and arms. Her clothes were also torn apart. When they dragged her into the detention centre, the centre said, "This person is not doing well. We cannot take her." Officer Xu Shaobin ordered doctors to prick the soles of Zhao's feet and when she had no reaction, Officer Xu viciously said, "Take her out and open up her insides to see what's wrong with her." It has been more than two months since there has been any news of practitioner Zhao.

8. [China] Despite Pressure from Above, an Educational Department Holds Its Ground and Gives its Students a Wonderful Future
Last year, a leader in charge of educational issues from a certain city in China held his ground when he was given orders from above to make each student order a book slandering Falun Gong. This has enabled tens of thousands of students to avoid an evil brainwashing. As a result, last year, students from the area in which this leader is in charge, did exceptionally well in their university entrance examinations. We are happy for this leader who has chosen a wonderful future for himself.
