Zhongshi Electronic News March 13 report: Falun Gong practitioners have filed a case against Zhao Zhifei, the director of Hubei Province Police Bureau in a U.S. court. They also sued Zhou Yongkang, party secretary of Sichuan Province; Liu Qi, Beijing City mayor; and Xia Deren, deputy party secretary of Liaoning Province, for allegedly ordering the violation of human rights, torture and death of Falun Gong practitioners in China.

Central News Agency Washington, March 12 report: In recent months, Falun Gong activists have sued four senior Chinese officials, including the mayor of Beijing, for allegedly ordering the violation of human rights, torture and death of Falun Gong practitioners in China.

People's Court News: [a newspaper in China] Treat with kindness citizens' right to appeal. According to laws regarding appeals, what a citizen is appealing for should be reported to related administrative agencies that have the power to make the decision or the administrative agency one level above it. When the person appeals to the higher agency, if the officials there think it's necessary, they can directly accept the case. Therefore, the so-called "skipping and appealing to higher government agencies" should still be considered as "appealing according to law." So how can [the government], without giving any reason, "harshly punish" people who appealed?

The true story of the "Dong Li Murder Case" in Chaoyang City, Liaoning Province: Among the ten elderly relatives in Dong Li's family, four of Dong's aunts died from neurosis. When his boss reduced his salary, Dong showed symptoms of neurosis after he went home. He killed his wife and injured his daughter with a pickaxe. After Dong returned to his right mind, he turned himself in to the police department. Because Dong knew about Falun Gong before July 20, 1999, the police framed Falun Gong [by claiming Dong went crazy after practicing Falun Gong]. just as they did when they interviewed Liu Siying [the girl, one of the "immolators" claimed by Chinese media]. The police put flowers and a stuffed bear in Dong's daughter's room in the hospital, and then they had a journalist interview her. It is completely staged "news."
The guardians of justice in Changchun City broadcast truth-clarifying videos about Falun Gong, which were like thunder in the spring that shattered the dictator's monopolized lie-making news machines, and it opened the lock of the "one voice" cage the dictator uses to fool the people. It enabled the people to learn the truth and truly decide their own future for themselves. The people who showed the videos are the vanguards of the future.

After dialing the hotel phone number, I asked the reception clerk to connect me to a representative of either the People's Congress or the Political Consultative Conference.

The taxi driver said: "Now, I have more new stories to tell others!"
