Za Dejun, a Dafa practitioner from Wutai Town, Dehui City, was caught and sent to the detention center at the Dehui Police Station in March 2002. He was held for ten days. Because he refused to give up Falun Dafa, he was sent to the Yinmahe Labor Camp in Jiutai City. There, Za Dejun held a hunger strike and was thus force-fed and tortured. After two weeks, he suffered a cerebral infarction. Since his life was in danger, the authorities asked his family to take him home. Currently, he is unable to take care of himself.

On January 3, 2002, Dafa practitioner Liu Xiuying was caught by police in Xiaoquan, Chongqing. She was detained at the Yuzhong Detention Center. In September, she was sent to the Maojiashan Female Labor Camp in Chongqing. Under the brutal persecution, she was tortured until her life was in danger. She was sent to the Maojiashan Youth Detention Center Hospital.

On November 25, Li Xiuying's mother received word to visit her daughter in the hospital. She found that Liu Xiuying could not take care of herself and was suffering from severe abdominal swelling. Li Xiuying's mother insisted that her daughter be released. The authorities refused to release Li Xiuying until she wrote "guarantee letters" [letters renouncing Falun Dafa]. Liu Xiuying remained firm in her commitment to Falun Dafa and refused to write anything against her will.

On August 21, 2002 Changsha police abducted over 60 Dafa practitioners in the Changsha area during a widespread search. Sixteen were arrested; many were sent to labor camp. Those practitioners whose arrest was not approved have been detained for three months. Practitioner Li Zhigang, a PhD student from State Defense Technology University, was severely beaten and transferred to the Guangzhou Army Court.

All practitioners who refused to write a "guarantee letter" (renouncing Falun Dafa) were detained by the Hunan "610 Office" or sent to a brainwashing class.

Before the 16th Party Congress, police abducted Dafa practitioner Sun Shibin from Changchun. He was sent to the Xinglongshan brainwashing class. He refused to give up Falun Gong. Now he is detained in the Chaoyanggou labor camp.

In October, in an effort to intensify the persecution, the Jilin City "610 Office" began three successive brainwashing classes. Each class lasted for two months. In addition, the State Security Bureau ordered phone operators to monitor all telephone and cell phone calls in Jilin.

Dafa practitioner Jiang Dianwu from Nongan City was arrested and brutally tortured by police from the Luyuan police station. At present, he is detained in the Tiebei detention center. He remains firm in his commitment to Dafa.
