[Beijing] Call for Release of Dafa Practitioners on a Hunger Strike for 33 Days in Beijing's Congwen District Detention Center
My wife and I both are Dafa practitioners. On February 4, 2002, when my wife passed by Tiananmen Square, she was interrogated and forcibly taken away in police vehicle. After I looked for her for a long time, I eventually found out that my wife was detained in the Congwen District's Detention Center and that she was identified by the number T235. She has not eaten or drunk for 33 days and her life is in extreme danger. I talked with Zhang Hongwei, the director of the detention center, several times, but he has refused to release her. I hope people from all walks of life and human rights organizations are able to provide help.

[Dalian City, Liaoning Province] Please Pay Attention to the Situation of Dafa Practitioner Duan Xiaodong from the Development District
In September 2001, Mr. Duan Xiaodong, a Dafa practitioner from Dalian City's Exploitation District, was illegally detained in this District's Detention Center because of posting Dafa truth-clarifying materials. In order to protest the illegal detention and persecution, Mr. Duan has already been on a hunger strike for 37 days. Only when his life was in extreme danger did officials in the detention center allow his family to take him home for treatment because they didn't want to take any responsibility if anything happened to him.
On November 28, 2001, policemen from the Harbin Street Police Precinct in the Development District broke into Mr. Duan Xiaodong's home and illegally detained him again for further persecution. Now three months have passed. Mr. Duan's situation is still unknown. The suffering and hardship brought about by such atrocities is unimaginable for everyday persons. We sincerely hope international human rights organizations and kind-hearted people will pay attention to this issue and work together to stop the ruling Chinese dictator's terrorism.

With your mercy and wisdom, you break the evil's darkness and let the saintly and great Buddha light illuminate everything.
All of us practitioners are proud of your great deeds! Let's send forth righteous thoughts together to eliminate all the evils. Greetings to you again!

[Shanxi Province] Practitioners from a Certain City widely Distribute Truth-Clarifying CDs, Terrifying the Evil Forces
In recent Fa-rectification activities, practitioners from a city in Shanxi Province saved people from lies by widely distributing truth-clarifying CDs. Just around the Spring Festival they distributed tens of thousand truth-clarifying discs in one district, which effectively cleared away the lies with which the evil indoctrinates innocent people and frightened the vicious forces. Recently, the vicious forces have intensified the persecution and some truth-clarifying material centers were destroyed. Many practitioners who had access to the Internet were arrested. The vicious forces were attempting to find out the source of these discs. We hope all the practitioners send forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the evils.
[Shuangcheng City, Heilongjiang Province] We Hope the International Community Helps to Investigate the Case of Dafa Practitioner Zhang Tao's Disappearance
Dafa practitioner Mr. Zhang Tao, 53 years old, used to be an employee of Shuangcheng City's Cement Factory. Since October 2001 when he went to Harbin City, there has been no information about him. Later it was found that policemen from Harbin City's Station arrested him. After Mr. Zhang Tao was illegally arrested, no one informed his family, and nobody knows his whereabouts or whether or not he is alive.
[Yingcheng City, Hubei Province] Kidnapping of Dafa Practitioner Yan Sanming
In early June 2001, Mr. Yan Sanming, a Dafa practitioner from Yingcheng City, Hubei Province, was illegally detained by policemen at the First Detention Center because he distributed truth-clarifying material. Before the Spring Festival of 2002, Mr. Yan Sanming went on a hunger strike to protest the illegal, long-term detention. On January 27 he was released because his life was in danger. On March 1, when Mr. Yan Sanming was sleeping at home, policemen from the Yingcheng Police Department together with the guards from the security section of Hubei Province's No. 728 Salt Factory broke into his room and gagged him with gauze. Then several policemen kidnapped him and forcibly carried him into a car. Now his whereabouts are unknown. The kidnapper provided no warrants for Mr. Yan Sanming home invasion or subsequent abduction.

[Dingxing County, Hebei Province] Criminal Facts of the Brainwashing Class
The "Education and Transformation Class" in Dingxing County, Hebei Province, founded last year, was actually a brainwashing class especially for persecuting Falun Gong practitioners. Most of the people there were forcibly detained.
Falun Gong practitioners detained there were usually forced to write the "four statements" which must be checked by personnel from the "610 Office. " The county government authorities or the "divisions" practitioners belonged to had to bail them out. Each practitioner had to pay 2,000 Yuan [500 Yuan is the average monthly income in rural areas of China] in "tuition fees and cost of living" every month and had to take part in the overtime army training every day. The guards, daily, carried electric batons or hard rubber batons. They brutally beat or punished those who did not completely obey them. The first "test" for all new detainees was a beating with rubber batons and electric batons. Director Li Ping even said that it was just a way to "settle" the practitioners in, in case they didn't obey them. Anyone didn't follow their instructions would be hung up in the "self-reflection room." He even threatened that anyone who disclosed that practitioners were beaten in the brainwashing class would be continually tortured. His superior even rewarded his criminal behavior because he brutally tortured practitioners. Those who refused to give up the practice of Falun Dafa would be further tortured and sent to a forced labor camp.
[Qianjiang City, Hubei Province] Vicious Thugs Who Kidnap Dafa Practitioners Receive Retribution on the Spot
Several days before December 26, 2001 of the Chinese lunar calendar, banners reading, "Falun Dafa is good" were all over some streets in Haokou Town, Qianjiang City, which effectively suppressed the local evil. On December 26, Li Junhua, director of the local security committee, along with a person named Dong, deputy director of Haokou Police Department and three roughnecks went to practitioner Mr. Chen Biliang's home and attempted to forcibly take him away.
Mr. Chen Biliang didn't cooperate with the illegal arrest, so the thugs beat him. Li Junhua, director of the local security committee, violently threw Mr. Chen's mother to the ground. Mr. Chen's mother immediately sat in the lotus position and sent forth righteous thoughts. At the same time, Mr. Chen, his father and brother, who are all Dafa practitioners, sent forth righteous thoughts together to eliminate all evil that interferes with the Fa. Li Junhua got retribution on the spot. He squatted on the ground in pain and spit white foam from his mouth. The other four roughnecks were stunned and quietly stood there.
However, these thugs didn't understand the lesson. They called Qianjiang City's Police Department and asked for five more policemen to help. A total of ten policemen took Dafa practitioner Mr. Chen Biliang away. Mr. Chen has been illegally detained until now. At present, about a dozen practitioners, including Liu Ping, are still being illegally detained.
[Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province] Falun Dafa Practitioners Illegally Detained in Wangjia Hospital have been on a Hunger Strike for More Than 110 Days
I have been detained in the Wanjia Forced Labor Camp Hospital for more than three months, and the persecutions against Dafa practitioners have never ceased here. Recently, another scandal was heard from Wanjia Forced Labor Camp that five Dafa practitioners were driven to the brink of hanging themselves. Fortunately, no one died. This incident completely exposed the truth of the brutal persecution of Dafa practitioners in this camp. Officials in the labor camp and in the provincial police bureau were in a panic. They came to interview and videotape us many times. We kept our righteous thoughts and did what we should do. They were especially afraid of the news spreading and they interrogated our families many times about the letters written before we tried to hang ourselves. They also detained us in solitary confinement and watched us closely. Director Shi Yingbai often said to us, "You guys made the Wanjia Hospital infamous again."
When practitioners Zhao Xiru, He Miao and others were interrogated, they validated Dafa with determination. Though the situation is very tough, we do the exercises and send forth righteous thoughts. Although Teacher's articles were confiscated and we were isolated from the outside, we are Dafa particles and resolutely refused to compromise with the evil.
The situation of practitioners' protest of the persecution at Wanjia Hospital: Three or four practitioners have always been on a hunger strike to request unconditional release. At the same time, we didn't cooperate with injections and resisted the persecution. Whenever the persecution intensified, we collectively staged a hunger strike. Up to now, there are still five practitioners on the hunger strike. Among them, He Miao (from Bayan County) and Ding Yanhong (from Mulan County) have been on hunger strike for more than 110 days. In addition, practitioners Wang Yuzhi, Wang Liyan, and Liu Limei began to launch a hunger strike during the Spring Festival. At present, there are nine Dafa practitioners in the hospital.
[Jixi City, Helongjiang Province] Lawless Officials Extort Money from Practitioners
At around 10 p.m. on September 2, 2001, policemen from Jidong County's Hada Police Department arrested practitioner Mr. Sun Guihua again, because they learned that he had written the banners spreading Dafa that were posted by other practitioners. Lawless policeman Sun Nan led Liu Haijun, a village official, and two others broke into Mr. Sun Guihua's home and took away Dafa books. They destroyed Mr. Sun's small shop and took him to the police department. They asked Mr. Sun to reveal the names of other practitioners, but Mr. Sun refused. A vicious police officer named Qiu threw him to the ground, slammed an iron chair on his legs, and beat his feet with a heavy plastic tube. After Qiu had beaten Mr. Sun for a while, he still could not get what he wanted from Mr. Sun. Mr. Sun's feet turned black and blue from the beating and were severely swollen. He was detained for two days and was extorted of 5,000 Yuan before he was released.
At around 8 p.m. on September 2, 2001, practitioner Ms. Zhang Yaqin went out with another fellow practitioner to post Dafa truth-clarifying flyers and policemen from Hada Police Department arrested her. The police asked her who the other practitioner was, and Ms. Zhang said she didn't know, so vicious police officer Wang Lei slapped Ms. Zhang's face with a towel and with his hand. He forced Ms. Zhang to sit on the floor and put an iron chair on her feet. Two vicious policemen pushed down on Ms. Zhang's feet on both sides, and another two police officers beat her with plastic tubes. Ms. Zhang sent forth righteous thoughts, and the two policemen got a sudden stomach ache. Then another two policemen came up and beat her. One ended up saying his stomach was hurting and the other said his back ached. So yet another groups of policemen took turns beating her. They beat Ms. Zhang for four rounds. These vicious police thugs included Wang Lei, Sun Nan, Zhang Biao and Qiu, and others. Ms. Zhang's feet and legs were beaten to the point of being black and blue and the bones and flesh on her feet separated. Her feet were covered with blood blisters. Ms. Zhang was detained for two days. After she was released to go home, she couldn't get off the bed for more than two months and she spent more than 1,000 Yuan on medical treatments. Ms. Zhang's husband went to the police department to reason with those thugs and the vicious policemen were scared, so they returned the 5,000 Yuan they had extorted from Ms. Zhang.

[Tieling City, Liaoning Province] Another Persecution Case Against Dafa Practitioners in the Qinghe District
On February 27, 2002, Dafa practitioners Mr. Liu Qingyu and Wang Junmin who obtained the Fa just a few days ago were arrested just outside the doors of their homes without due cause. They were put into the Qinghe District's Detention Center afterwards. Liu Qingyu staged a hunger strike to protest the persecution. Personnel from the police department coerced the family members of Mr. Liu Qingyu to hand in money, claiming they needed it to "send Liu to the hospital for surgery." Mr. Liu's family members resolutely refused them. Later on, Mr. Liu was sent to the Prisoners' Hospital in Tieling City for observation. His current situation is unknown.
[Shenyang City, Liaoning Province] Exposing Longshan Female Forced Labor Camp's Maltreatment Against Dafa Practitioners
At the Longshan Female Labor Camp, a group of policemen, headed by officer in charge Li Fengshi, forcibly brainwashed the Falun Gong practitioners. They've used all kinds of vicious means. Tang, leader of No.2 Division is a very brutal man. He would even swear at his colleagues, let alone Dafa practitioners. In No.2 Division one can always hear the cries for help during nighttime, followed by the sound of cursing, and everybody knows that it was Dafa practitioners who were being inhumanly tortured.
Dafa practitioner Miss Sun Fengxin was punished to squat down, knocked against the wall and deprived of sleep for a long time, as she did not compromise with the vicious forces. Later on, she was beaten and pinched, even while being tied to the bed. As a result, she is now unable to walk and can only crawl. Even under these circumstances the guards still didn't leave her alone and kept torturing her. Every single Dafa practitioner who refused to give up cultivation is made to suffer the persecution for an infinite period of time.
The vicious policemen at the same labor camp tortured Dafa practitioner Ms. Wang Hong to death and they warned Ms. Wang's family members not to speak out about it.
Li Jifeng, an abusive policeman from the No.1 Division mistreated Dafa practitioners who refused to abandon "Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance" by not allowing them to sleep, forcing them to sit on a narrow stool, forcing them to squat down for a long time, beating and even pounding them on the heads. As practitioner Dong refused to give in, two vicious policemen each took hold of one of this practitioner's arms and twisted them to the back. They clamped down on the practitioner's throat, pressed back her head, covered the head with a quilt and forcefully knocked the practitioner's head against the ground until the practitioner was forced to accept their brainwashing.
Lawless policeman Li Fengyuan hit practitioners with Dafa books until he himself was tired.
The collaborators who had enlightened along the evil path told those practitioners who felt regretful after being forced to compromise, "I don't believe I can't fix you." He Jinfeng and Chen Min who enlightened along the evil path are more brutal than the policemen. Their hands are covered with Dafa practitioners' blood. They are still committing crimes in the Xinchengzi area.
[Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province] Seven Dafa Practitioners are in Critical Condition Due to the Persecution Suffered in the Changlinzi Forced Labor Camp
Some Dafa practitioners being held at the Changlinzi Forced Labor Camp have been staging a hunger strike to protest the illegal sentence and persecution. At present, seven practitioners' lives are in danger. They were sent to Harbin City's No.2 Hospital for emergency treatment. The seven practitioners are: Chang Hong, Zhang Yisheng, Wang Fengnan, Yu Naiping, Li Xin and two other practitioners whose names are unknown. Among them, Wang Fengnan has been on hunger strike for over 50 days. They have all manifested the symptoms of heart failure, liver, stomach, lung, and kidney ailments and damage to some other organs to various extents. Besides, these practitioners all have suffered from scabies for several months and their bodies are covered with sores all over.
When the family members of these practitioners were informed to go to the hospital, they saw that the practitioners had bloody faces. An inquiry revealed the cause to be being brutally force-fed at the hands of guards. When the family members asked the labor camp team leader for an answer, the team leader said, "It would be counted as suicide if they die of the hunger strike. They would die in vain. There is an order from above, so we will not be responsible for this."
The practitioners held at Changlinzi Labor Camp are all determined in their belief to Dafa. They are being persecuted only because they refused to give up their belief in "Truth, Compassion, and Tolerance." During the illegal detention period, most of the practitioners suffered from scabies. The scabies on some practitioners were so serious that these areas became putrefied. It was very painful for them to sit up or lie down. They can't fall asleep for the whole night. Some of them couldn't even take care of themselves and had to rely on others to dress them and feed them. Even though, the guards in the labor camp still insisted on detaining them. They attempted to destroy the practitioners' wills and forced practitioners to give up cultivation. They even prohibited family members to visit the practitioners. Dafa practitioners have suffered tortures, both physically and mentally. It was under this severe situation that Dafa practitioners protested with the cost of their lives against the illegal detention and persecution and strived for the freedom of belief and life, of which they had been unlawfully deprived.
