[Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province] Dafa Practitioners Who Enter and Leave Harbin Railway Station: Please Send Forth Righteous Thoughts and Pay Attention to Safety

Recently, a police outpost was set up at Harbin City's Railway Station exit. The police outpost was equipped with five or six computers to verify information. Policemen required every person leaving the exit to show his/her ID card. If the person couldn't present an ID card, he/she could be taken away for further interrogation. There were also policemen patrolling in the ticket-selling hall. They would stop someone with certain characteristics for interrogation. Dafa practitioners who go in and out of Harbin City's Railway Station, please send forth righteous thoughts and pay attention to your safety.

The feat of Dafa practitioners in Heilongjiang Province broadcasting Dafa truth-clarifying videos through the cable TV network greatly shocked the evil. Now the police authorities investigate Dafa practitioners from Harbin City who might have contact with Dafa practitioners in Daqing City. It was said that the police authorities have already arrested many practitioners.

[Chengdu City, Sichuan Province] When the "Head of the Evil" Stayed in Chengdu City, Police Authorities Placed Falun Gong Practitioners under House Arrest

When the "head of the evil" stayed in Chengdu City, local police authorities ordered all street administration officers to urgently inform each Falun Gong practitioner that no practitioner was allowed to move around freely. They also attempted to entrap practitioners to the suburbs for house arrest. [Note: the local police authorities try every means, both soft and harsh, to prevent practitioners from stepping forward to validate the Fa, because the "head of the evil" would be frightened and enraged, and consequently, they would lose their jobs.] Policemen in the Wangnian Police Precinct were extremely lawless. They had someone block the entrance to practitioner Ms. Gu's home and did not permit her to go downstairs for shopping. Ms. Gu's mother had to go to her daughter's home to take care of her daily necessities.

[Changchun City, Jilin Province] The Deputy Mayor Devises a Plan to Censor the Internet for Three Months

It was reported on May 24 from Changchun City that on May 23, officials from all departments at all levels of government had a conference. Tian Zhonglin, the deputy mayor, devised a plan to further Censor the Internet for three months. They formed a "special action and investigation group" consisting of all departments including police, education, security, communications and culture departments. This group mainly aimed their scrutiny at the bulletins, message boards, chat rooms, web sites, web pages and individual home pages on the Internet as well as e-mails, network bars, e-libraries, communities, nightclubs, schools, research institutions and network service providers. At the same time, policemen in the railway department will do a strict check of passengers in the upcoming three months.

[Dalian City, Liaoning Province] Illegal Arrest of an Elderly Dafa Practitioner from the Luushunkou District

Recently, a 62-year-old female Dafa practitioner was illegally arrested in Sanjianbao Town of Dalian City's Luushunkou District. Before her arrest, she distributed Dafa truth-clarifying flyers. Her name and her current situation are unknown. Vile people are relentlessly attempting to damage Dafa in this town.

[Liaoning Province] A Small City Holds a Small-Scale Dafa Conference

We are Dafa practitioners from a small city in Liaoning Province. On May 19, twenty practitioners got together and held a small Dafa conference. During the conference we sent forth righteous thoughts six times, at the top of each hour. An over 60-year-old practitioner shared her experiences of going to Beijing to peacefully appeal for Falun Gong. She was illiterate and had never left home alone for far away. However, in March 2002 she went to Beijing alone to validate the Fa, and returned safely with Teacher's compassionate protection. We could not stop crying while listening to her story. After this conference we will diligently cultivate ourselves and do well at what Dafa practitioners are supposed to do.

[Gongzhuling City, Jilin Province] Abduction of Ten Dafa Practitioners

A few days ago, ten Dafa practitioners from Gongzhuling City were arrested including two 11-and-12-year-old practitioners. Now their parents have brought the two young practitioners back home. The other eight practitioners are still in detention. They had previously been forced to leave home and live in a rented place.

Dafa practitioner Mr. Wang Yancai from Gongzhuling City was abducted in Qingyuan City, Liaoning Province and is now held at the Dashagou Detention Center. Mr. Wang has suffered all kinds of tortures. More detailed information will follow later.

[Nong'an County, Jilin Province] Policemen Abduct and Beat Falun Gong Practitioners in the Street in Broad Daylight

Since Mid-May, vicious policemen from Nong'an County have arrested seven or eight Dafa practitioners in the street during the daytime. They beat up practitioners while arresting them. They totally ignored people's basic rights, neglected the national laws and did everything at will. At present, Dafa practitioners Zhang Shuli, Zhu Lianshen, Wang Yulan, Jia and Wen are being held at the county's detention center without any due cause or having been given any reason.

[Wuxue City, Hubei Province] Wuxue City's Huangmei Troupe Puts on Dafa-Defaming Shows to Poison People's Minds

On May 18, 2002, about 30 performers from Wuxue City's Huangmei Troupe arrived in Huangmei County and put on a show at the Longganhu Farm. The plot of the show resembled very much the alleged "Tiananmen Self-Immolation Incident." They slandered Dafa and poisoned the minds of sentient beings. Before the show was put on, over 1,000 farm workers and administrators were called on to watch it. Employers bought the tickets beforehand and the staff was not at all informed of the content of the show. More than half of the audience had left before half of the show was performed. At last, only the organizers were left and they had to conclude the show alone.

On May 20, the troupe again attempted to poison the minds of people, this time primary and middle school students. Now the troupe has gone to other places.

[Dalian City, Liaoning Province] Brutal Crimes of Deputy Team Leader Jing Dianke from the Men's Team of Dalian City's Forced Labor Camp

Jing Dianke, deputy team leader who is taking charge of male Falun Gong practitioners, ignored Falun Gong practitioners' kind persuasion and vented his brutality at will. He not only beat up Dafa practitioners himself, but also ordered prisoners to mistreat Dafa practitioners. The thugs only allowed practitioners to wear a shirt, handcuffed practitioners' hands on their backs and forced them to sit on the wooden beds. The practitioners were allowed to sleep for only four hours each day and forbidden to brush their teeth and wash their face, not to mention take a shower. Even the duration and time for using the toilet was limited. They physically abused practitioners by whipping their legs with wooden boards and humiliated practitioners by slapping their faces with books. The practitioners being persecuted include Zheng Dezhu, Li Zhenghua and others.
