1. [Dalian City, Liaoning Province] The Police Conduct two Massive Hunts for Practitioners
Around April 25, 2002, the police in Dalian City conducted an illegal hunt for practitioners. They arrested all the practitioners who persist in their cultivation. Another massive hunt was conducted around May 13. According to inside news from the police, the perpetrators will start another round of arrests on May 19, 2002. We call for practitioners in Dalian to send forth righteous thoughts, eliminate the evil in the other dimensions, and completely break the arrangements of the old evil forces with righteous thoughts and deeds.
2. [Changchun City, Jilin Province] The Persecutors Transfer Police Staff from Other Areas, and Replace the Staff in Some Police Stations
Recently, many plain-clothes police patrol the streets after 8 or 9 PM, checking the IDs of people passing by. They arrest those who do not carry any ID or those they suspect of being practitioners. Through talking with them, some practitioners learned that these police officers have been transferred in from other areas.
Some police in the Changchun City police stations have also been replaced. Those police who monitor Falun Gong practitioners have all been replaced. Furthermore, some districts and regions of Changchun City have initiated another round of brainwashing classes.
3. [Shandong Province] Situation of Dafa Practitioners Detained in Wangcun Forced Labor Camp
Fearing that their crimes will be exposed, the persecutors in Wangcun Forced Labor Camp strictly block information from leaving. All of the prison cells are monitored with video cameras 24 hours a day. Except for meal breaks, which last for less than 20 minutes, the practitioners are forced to work from 5:30 AM till 10 PM every day. The food provided is far from enough, and lacks nutrients. The living conditions are terrible. When practitioner Wang Shaoqing asked to reduce the work hours and improve the living condition, the practitioner was put under "strict controlling." The guards handcuffed Wang, hung him/her up in the air, and tortured him/her. They tried to force Wang to "repent." Because Wang persisted in practicing the movements, he/she was put under "strict control" on several occasions. Wang is given only a small piece of corn bread and two pieces of pickled vegetable at each meal. Recently, Wang was put into a confinement cell. Since the year 2000, over 1000 practitioners have been sent to the labor camp. Recently, some practitioners are sent in every day.
4. [Shandong Province] Delayed News: Criminal Records of Collaborator Zhou Baoshun and Police Guard Wang Xinjiang
In December 2000, Zhou Baoshun, a wicked collaborator from Binzhou City, used the "tiger bench" [Illustrations of torture methods:
http://www.clearwisdom.net/emh/articles/2001/11/24/16156.html] to torture 60-year-old practitioner Jiang Mingzhai from Qingdao City, who was detained in the No. 10 group. When the brutal torture failed to force Jiang to "reform," Zhou went wild and said: "I will use the 'tiger stool' , and he will reform for sure." Zhou inserted a stool underneath Jiang's ankles to make it harder for him to tolerate this abuse. During the cold winter, Zhou beat Jiang at 2 or 3 AM. Also, several perpetrators did not allow Jiang to sleep for days, and took turns watching him. Zhou was complacent with his vicious "invention." The Dafa practitioners strongly condemned his deeds, and practitioner Yu Zongping clarified the truth to him, telling him that committing crimes like that will bring serious consequences to him. Zhou only restrained himself after hearing Yu's words. Because of the strict blockade of information, the preceding stories were not known until now.
In January 2001, in the No. 11 group, police guards Wang Xinjiang and Liang Junling brutally tortured practitioner Chu Liwen from Weifang City. They did not allow Chu to sleep, which made Chu very sick. On one day in January, Chu finally fainted and fell on the ground. Wang and Liang did not stop there. They shouted in Chu's ears, kicked him, poked his feet, and stabbed him with needles, yet Chu remained unconscious. The wicked perpetrators exhausted their means, but they still could not move the determined mind of Chu Liwen.
In January 2001, Wang Xinjiang ferociously tortured practitioner Yu Zongping from Jinan City. Wang did not allow Yu to sleep for a long time, punished Yu by forcing him to stand facing a wall for long periods of time, and beat him. Together with some collaborators [former Falun Gong practitioners who have gone astray due to brainwashing and torture], Wang forced Yu to sit on the floor, straightened his legs, and bent his head forward to touch his legs. While several people were holding Yu in that position, others put a tea table about 1.5 feet high on top of Yu's body. After that, several perpetrators sat on the tea table, and several others held Yu. Like this, Wang tortured Yu Zongping for a whole night. The next morning, Wang further tortured Yu by forcing him to stand facing a wall.
In Wangcun Forced Labor Camp, guard Wang Xinjiang tortured many practitioners numerous times. The practitioners tortured by him include: Zhang Xueqiang, Wang Yaodong, Sun Guangming, Song Yurong, Yu Zongping, Sun Rongzhai, Wang Shaoqing, Man Jun, Xia Qiang, and others.
5. [Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province] Several Practitioners Recently Arrested
On March 7, 2002, practitioner Bu Shuifa was arrested on his way home from work by about a dozen police guards. Bu was then detained in a brainwashing class in Guangzhou City, where he was brutally tortured. More than 10 practitioners were also arrested on the same day, including Gao Xiuzhen and Yang. They were arrested from their homes, work units, or on the streets. Practitioner Zhu Dongdi disappeared in early April 2002. Someone reported Zhu's sister Zhu Maodi to the police while she was clarifying the truth at Guangzhou City Children's Hospital. The police then arrested Zhu Maodi, leaving behind her baby son, who was less than a year old. Practitioner Wu disappeared on April 13. We hope that anyone who knows her whereabouts will provide us with her information.
On April 27, 2002, 10 police guards arrested practitioner Qiu Tengkun from his home. Qiu's home was ransacked, and his address book was taken. Practitioner Liang Zihui was arrested on the same day by some wicked people from her work unit and some persecutors from Guangzhou Railroad "610" Office.
6. [Changchun City, Jilin Province] Persecution of Practitioners in Heizuizi Forced Labor Camp
In the No. 2 Group of Heizuizi Forced Labor Camp, the persecutors forcefully brainwash Dafa practitioners:
A. The newly arrived practitioners are "educated" by the guards. They try to force the practitioners to "completely separate" from Falun Gong. The "assisting group" formed by people who have "enlightened" along evil paths tries to brainwash and attack the practitioners.
B. The persecutors use electric batons, confinement cells, the "death bed," and beating to torture practitioners. In early 2001, the shocking sounds of electric batons could often be heard.
C. They also torture the practitioners by forcing them to stand facing walls for up to 8 or 9 hours, during the daytime and at night. After the torture, the practitioners are forced to write "materials." Only 2 to 4 hours of sleep are allowed. As a result of the torture, the practitioners' feet swell, and their legs become numb.
D. The persecutors force the practitioners to read materials that slander Dafa. Those who refuse to read are handcuffed and hung up so that their feet can only barely touch the floor.
E. The practitioners are not allowed to talk. The persecutors put tape on the practitioners' mouths and humiliate them by cursing and scolding them.
F. The guards put practitioners under "strict control" without permission from their superiors. They also do not provide enough food to the practitioners; only some sour gruel is given to the practitioners for each meal.
G. From October to December in the year 2001, the persecutors forced the firm practitioners to carry beans. The practitioners were forced to each carry a 135-pound bag from the first floor to the fifth floor. After processing the beans, the practitioners were then forced to carry the bags down to the first floor. Some practitioners who used to suffer from heart disease felt suffocated. The guards cursed the practitioners whenever the bags were dropped.
H. The practitioners are forced to do physical labor for over 12 hours a day, and often 15 or 16 hours when the workloads are heavy. There are no breaks: when the guards see practitioners taking a rest, they curse and scold them.
I. The persecutors of the labor camp deceive their superiors and reporters. In 2001, some supervisors conducted an inspection. Fearing that the practitioners would clarify the truth and expose their crimes, the guards sent most of the practitioners to watch a movie. On another occasion, a reporter arrived for an interview. A practitioner said, "Falun Dafa is good." The chief guard lied and told the reporter that the practitioner was mentally ill, and thus refused to allow the practitioner to be interviewed.
The situation in the labor camp has gradually become better since late 2001. The grating yells and curses are less frequent now. Yet the practitioners are still beaten from time to time. The guards kicked an old practitioner so badly that he/she had to stay in bed for a long time. The newly arrived practitioners are still brainwashed, attacked, and separated from other practitioners for days, until the persecutors see that their methods have an effect on the practitioners.

8. [Jiaohe City, Jilin Province] Some Wicked People from the City Government Spread Rumors
On March 14, the city government of Jiaohe City started some rumors: "Falun Gong practitioners are reaching consummation, they do things like poisoning people..." The persecutors are creating excuses for their more vicious persecution on a larger scale, instigating the people to fight among themselves.
9. [Jiaohe City, Jilin Province] A Partial List of Practitioners Illegally Sent to Forced Labor Camps in July 2001
Practitioner Qi Yuxian was detained for 25 days for appealing in Beijing on January 15, 2000 (Chinese lunar calendar). The police fined Qi 3000 Yuan [Chinese dollar. The average monthly salary of an urban worker in China is about 500 Yuan, but only 200 Yuan for a rural worker.] and ransacked his home. On July 20, 2001, several police guards including Yue Kai grabbed Qi's hands and legs and dragged him down five flights of stairs, resulting in many injuries to Qi's body. The police handcuffed and hung him up in the air, then brutally beat the practitioner. Qi lost consciousness several times, and the persecutors used cold water to wake him up. One month later, Qi was secretly sentenced to 2 years in a forced labor camp.
When distributing truth clarifying fliers on July 20, 2001, practitioner Gu was arrested by the police. The persecutors brutally tortured Gu and one month later secretly sentenced Gu to 1 year in a forced labor camp. Gu's son is in middle school, and he is depending on his relatives for help.
On July 20, 2001, the police broke into female practitioner Liu Guimei's home. They arrested Liu and ransacked her home. Liu was also brutally tortured and one month later was secretly sentenced to 1 year in a forced labor camp.
Practitioner He Yushi was arrested on July 20, 2001, while He was distributing truth-clarifying fliers. The persecutors illegally detained He for a month, and then secretly sentenced him/her to 1 year in a forced labor camp. He spent 4 months in a labor camp and then walked out with dignity.
The police arrested practitioner Li Desheng at his home at the end of 2001. They detained Li for a month, and then secretly sentenced him to 1 year in a forced labor camp.
Female practitioner Liu Yue was illegally arrested in Beijing on February 13, 2001. The persecutors secretly detained her for 10 months, and then transferred her to several different places. After someone recognized her, Liu was secretly sentenced to 7 years in jail by Shunyi District Count (Beijing City). We hope that practitioners who know her whereabouts provide us with the information, and that practitioners who have seen this message send forth righteous thoughts to help Liu, so that she can be released and return to the Fa-rectification current.
10. [Yunnan Province] Reporter Li Shaoming from Yunnan Daily News Is Still Slandering Dafa
In 2001, Reporter Li Shaoming from Yunnan Daily News was in charge of collecting articles that slander Dafa for the newspaper. Currently, Li is primary editor of the "people's life" column in the Yunnan Daily News. On May 13, 2002, Li published another article that slandered Dafa.
