After five Falun Dafa practitioners in Jinchang City were arrested for unfurling banners, they were repeatedly tortured without mercy. Now, the evil people are also persecuting the Falun Dafa practitioners' family members.

One Falun Dafa practitioner's home is on the fifth floor. Around 2:00 a.m. on March 27th, there was a sandstorm. A wooden case of old clothes that was in the doorway was opened and all the clothes were taken out and strewn all over the floor around the doorway, then set on fire. Soon, the dense smoke and the flames were blown into the room by the wind, which woke up the two daughters who had been sleeping there. When they tried to run outside, they were blocked by the big fire and could not escape. They then called the police, but nobody came to put out the fire. They opened up the windows to call for help, but the security personnel in the residential district did not do anything, but only told the people in the room not come out and to just open the windows. Later, the sisters called their neighbors. The kindhearted neighbors put out the fire and rescued the sisters. The wooden security door already had traces of damage from the fire. It would have only taken a moment for the whole room to catch fire due to the very strong wind. The consequences could have been even more disastrous. Before the incident, some neighbors heard someone on the staircase, and the sound of activity lasted for a little while. After the incident, the sisters reported to the police, but the policemen turned their backs on this case of arson.

All sorts of evidence show that this was a premeditated arson. Falun Dafa practitioners are kind to everybody and never incur hatred from anyone, so the fire-starter could not have done it in retaliation. The only possible reason was that evil people in Jinchang City tried to stage a terrible murder, placing the blame on Falun Gong and using the rumors and propaganda to suppress Falun Gong. Not content with just persecuting practitioners, they are stretching their dark claws toward innocent family members of Falun Gong practitioners.

After this incident, the sisters became so frightened and upset that they were afraid to go out.

All righteous and kindhearted people in the country and in the whole world: Please help stop this persecution.
