[Shijiazhuang City, Hebei Province] Secret Meeting at Panlong Lake of "610 Offices" from Every Province

According to reliable sources, on June 24, 2002, "610 Offices" [an agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems] from every province all over the country will have a secret meeting in Shijiazhuang City. The meeting will last for three or four days, with over a hundred people expected to attend. The purpose of the meeting is to organize and deploy another round of persecution against practitioners. The details are under investigation.

[Hongya County, Sichuan Province] Record of Crimes Committed by Yang Maoxiang in the No.1 Section of Hongya County's Police Department

Yang Maoxiang, a police officer in the No.1 Section of Hongya County's Police Department, is in charge of persecuting Falun Gong practitioners. Since July 22, 1999 he has applied all kinds of brutal methods to torture local practitioners. He often led policemen to menace Falun Gong practitioners with guns. If practitioners did not cooperate, he threatened that they would be shot along with felons condemned to death. Still, he could not change practitioners' determined hearts. He often led policemen to break into and ransack practitioners' homes and their relatives' homes. These persecutors intimidated and threatened practitioners and their relatives. They even claimed they would kill all the practitioner families' members or would involve all the relatives in their persecution. The practitioners' relatives are living in terror.

[Hubei Province] Village Leader: "Eventually I Have Learned How Jiang Frames Falun Gong."

In Hubei Province, from Dafa practitioners' widespread truth-clarifying efforts, people have begun to understand. One day a village leader asked a practitioner for the truth-clarifying VCD in the presence of many village leaders. Other leaders asked him, "How dare you practice Falun Gong?" The leader replied, "I am not practicing, but I want to know the truth." Several days later, the practitioner asked the leader about his opinions after he watched the truth-clarifying VCD. He answered, "Now I understand how Jiang frames Falun Gong. Falun Gong is good."

[Guilin City, Guangxi Province] Dafa Practitioners Song Yudong, Tang Chunlei and Several Other Practitioners Sent to a Forced Labor Camp

At the end of April, Dafa practitioners Song Yudong, Tang Chunlei and several other practitioners from Xing'an County and Quanzhou County in the Guilin Area, Guangxi Province were sentenced to three years of forced labor. Some of them have already been sent to Guangxi Province's Female Forced Labor Camp and Guangxi Province's No. 1 Forced Labor Camp.

[Hebei Province] Boundless Power of Dafa; Righteous Thoughts Break Through Brainwashing Class

A brainwashing class was planned to open in a certain county of Hebei Province. On June 8, practitioners heard it was going to begin on June 10. All personnel for the brainwashing class were ready. The same day, most practitioners in this county found out about this. Then we sent forth righteous thoughts at the top of each hour, to eliminate evils in other dimensions. On June 9, we also distributed and posted flyers in the town and villages to expose the wicked intention of the brainwashing class. With their powerful, righteous thoughts, practitioners completely foiled the plan of opening the brainwashing class that was organized by these corrupt officials. Meanwhile, a practitioner walked out of a detention center with righteous thoughts. A metal door could not keep this practitioner locked up after he easily freed himself from handcuffs. This experience again manifested the mighty power of Dafa and righteous thoughts.

[China] Dafa Practitioners in Jail Unceasingly Clarify the Truth about Falun Gong; Chinese Central TV Station's Program "Focal Point Discussions" Has No Audience

Although we were held in a detention center, we still tried our best to clarify the truth to people and enlighten those people who have a good attitude toward Dafa.

On May 13, World Falun Dafa Day, guards in the detention center distributed a newspaper, which published the criminal case of the "murdering daughter," faked by the TV program "Focal Point Discussions," to each cell and attempted to slander and frame Dafa. But the result was that more and more people became clear-minded and didn't believe the TV and newspaper's false propaganda, as they had some understanding about Dafa practitioners.

[Wuhan City, Hubei Province] Precinct Policemen from the Shiqiaokou District Use Violence in Public; Kind-Hearted Young Man Put into Forced Labor Camp for Two Years

Section leader Jin from Wuhan City's Shiqiaokou District Police Precinct often violently arrested and brutally tortured Dafa practitioners. A group of policemen surrounded an approximately 20-year-old Dafa practitioner and beat him up in the street. More than ten policemen punched and kicked him. Afterwards they took him to the police precinct and beat him for three nights and two days, with sticks, straps, electric baton and a wooden stool. They didn't allow him to sleep. They trampled on his head and face, and hung him up while beating him. The handcuffs deeply cut into his flesh and even exposed the bone. He bled profusely from wounds all over his body.

This practitioner's neighbors and classmates all considered him to be very kind since childhood. He has never said dirty words, not to mention slander others. Because he was sick he learned Falun Gong together with his mother. From reading the book (Zhuan Falun) he learned the principles of how to be a good person. He followed Teacher's words on how to live, to work and to cooperate with friends. He continually improved himself. This good young man was sentenced to two years of forced labor just because he practices Falun Gong.

[Chongzhou City, Sichuan Province] Criminal Record of Yangma Township Supervisor

Luo Xiaoming is director of Yangma Township, Chongzhou City, Sichuan Province. In order to get promoted, he often beats practitioners, constantly takes his men to break into practitioners' homes, paints slanderous phrases against Teacher and Dafa on the streets and walls, organizes personnel to arrest practitioners by staking out certain spots and sends police cruisers to monitor practitioners' activities. In April 2002 he ordered a gang to break into the home of practitioner Ms. Yang Xiuyu from No.5 Team and confiscated some Dafa materials. They took Yang to the Police Station and tried to extort 3,000 Yuan [200-300 Yuan is average monthly income in rural area of China] from Yang's family members. As the family had been previously extorted many times, they had no money to hand in this time. As of now, Yang is still being detained.

[Yingcheng City, Hubei Province] Several Practitioners Sentenced to Long Term Imprisonment

In June 2001, Dafa practitioners Ms. Wang Ping, Ms Gao Wenxia, Mr. Zhang Xiangfa and Mr. Yan Sanming were detained at the No.1 Detention Center in Yingcheng City for distributing Dafa truth-clarifying materials. In March 2002, they were sentenced to long-term imprisonment. Ms. Wang Ping was sentenced to seven years imprisonment, Ms. Gao Wenxia four years, Mr. Zhang Xiangfa and Yan Sanming three years.

Dafa practitioner Zhang Hongbin from Jingshan County was persecuted for making Dafa truth-clarifying materials. He has been detained at Jingshan County's No.1 Detention Center since December 2001. He has been sentenced to seven years of imprisonment. At present he is still detained at Jingshan County's No.1 Detention Center.

Dafa practitioner Chen Zhongtao from Jingshan County used to be a commander of the armed police in Panzhihua City, Sichuan Province. As he insisted on practicing Dafa after July 20, 1999, he was detained by the army for six months. In July 2000 he went to Beijing to appeal and was afterwards detained nearly 17 months, back and forth, between Jingshan County's No.1 and No.2 Detention Centers. In November 2001 he was released. In mid May 2002 he was arrested when the truth-clarifying materials center in Wuhan City was destroyed. He is now detained at Jingshan County's No.1 Detention Center. The authorities are preparing to sentence him to long-term imprisonment. The practitioner is on a hunger strike to protest this illegal mistreatment.

[Ziyang City, Sichuan Province] List of Names and Criminal Records of Lawless Policemen; Includes One Death by Torture

Since July 20, 1999, personnel from Ziyang City's Police Department have been knowingly violating the law. At this time, director Liang Shengquan has already signed over 100 arrest-and-sentencing warrants against Dafa practitioners. Recently, they extended the detention term of practitioner Li Zhenghua by three years. That practitioner had just been released and was transferred to the Nanmusi Forced Labor Camp. Practitioner He Zhenyue disappeared after being detained numerous times by Ziyang City's Police Department personnel. On February 3, 2002, Li was again put into Pi County's Detention Center. On April 10, this practitioner was tortured to death at Chengdu City's Detention Center.

Breaking into and searching practitioners' homes at any time has become routine work for policemen. Especially recently, policemen have been continuously searching several practitioners' homes. Since last year, collaborators [former Falun Gong practitioners who have gone astray due to brainwashing and torture] that just came out of labor camps, including Liu Bo and Li Deyu who had been bought off, have been cooperating with police to harass Dafa practitioners. Disguised in various forms, Li Deyu has been actively spying on and entrapping Dafa practitioners and was rewarded by the "610 Office." Wu Jian, the former director of the Political Committee and Dong Shihong, a leader of policemen who had been trying really hard to persecute Dafa practitioners, have already received karmic retribution by losing their posts.
