1. [Changchun, Jilin Province] Falun Dafa Practitioners' Family Members, Please be Concerned About the Safety of Your Loved Ones
We heard that the Changchun police recently illegally arrested many Dafa practitioners. Among them, three female practitioners held at the Luyuan Police Branch Department, had been maintaining righteous minds and had been on a hunger strike to resist the evil persecution. We suspect that Duan, one of the three, was likely tortured to death and cremated. We are very worried about another practitioner, named Zhi, because we don't know her situation. When Zhi's family members questioned the staff handling the case no one took responsibility and the family was even scolded and sworn at. The staff said, "We never arrested this person." "She has escaped already." And so on. However, less than a month ago, the police went to the practitioner's home, said that they had arrested her, and tried to extort money from her family for her release. The names and situations of the other practitioner's are not known.
2. [Hubei Province, China] Falun Dafa Practitioners Send Congratulations on the Establishment of the Venezuelan Falun Dafa Association
On hearing about the establishment of the Venezuelan Falun Dafa Association, Dafa practitioners in Hubei Province send warm congratulations. Inside or outside of China, Dafa practitioners are one body. We hope that we can join hands and advance together, help Teacher rectify the Fa in this time when Fa-rectification comes to the human world, and firmly complete our final steps. Let us do better in clarifying the truth and welcome the day of Fa-rectification in the human world.
Heshi,
Hubei Dafa Practitioners
August 15, 2002
3. [China] Falun Dafa Practitioners in a Northern County Successfully Held a Conference Last Sunday
Falun Dafa practitioners in a northern county successfully held a conference last Sunday. It was very cloudy on the morning of August 11, 2002; however, the sky gradually cleared after the conference started. Several dozen practitioners from adjacent counties attended the conference. They discussed how to break through human notions and to clarify the truth. They also had a deeper understanding about the importance of persisting in group Fa-study and practicing the exercises in order to better clarify the truth. During the conference, practitioners sent forth righteous thoughts hourly around the clock.
4. [Anhui Province] A Big Banner Reading "Falun Dafa is Good" Was Hung at a Crosswalk Bridge in an Anhui Province City
On August 11, a big banner that read, "Falun Dafa is Good," was hung at a crosswalk bridge in a city in Anhui Province. There were also many posters about the truth of Falun Dafa in nearby areas. These banners had a great impact in that area and shocked the evil.
5. [China] Falun Dafa Practitioners in a Northeastern City Write the Truth of Dafa on Outside Walls in Order to Save People
[Note: Without access to any typical means of communication such as newspapers, magazines, TVáor radio, Falun Gong practitioners have resorted to many creative and sometimes unusual methods for raising awareness among Chinese people about the persecution.]
In one night, two Dafa practitioners in a northeastern city sprayed the truth of Dafa on more than half of the outside walls throughout the city. They wrote: "Falun Dafa Is Good," "Life Needs Truth, Compassion, Forbearance," "Falun Dafa Is a Righteous Law," "Treating Dafa Kindly Will Bring You a Bright Future," "Falun Dafa Is Persecuted and Suffers Enormous Injustice" and so on. This action powerfully shocked the evil.
6. [Liaoyang City, Liaoning Province] Huazi Prison Illegally Holds Nearly 20 Falun Dafa Practitioners
Liaoyang City Huazi Prison is illegally detaining nearly 20 Falun Gong practitioners. These practitioners were all given prison sentences of five years or longer and are enduring inhuman tortures.
7. [Harbin, Heilongjiang Province] Wanjia Forced Labor Camp Recently Intensely Brainwashed Falun Gong Practitioners
Recently, Harbin Wanjia Forced Labor Camp started intense brainwashing of Falun Gong practitioners. They brought collaborators that had been living at home to the labor camp and used them to help mentally torture the practitioners.
8. [China] The Police Widely Collect Falun Dafa Practitioners' Private Information
According to documents from the police bureau, a southern county categorized the pictures, resident registration numbers, and other private information of more than 300 people who started practicing Falun Gong before 1999 and reported the information to all levels of government and government agencies.
9. [Xiong County, Hebei Province] Four Falun Dafa Practitioners Are Arrested
Around 10 p.m. on July 31, the police from Xiong County in Hebei Province broke into female practitioner Dong Wencai's home and arrested her, Haibo, and another practitioner. On August 2, another female practitioner Junhua was also arrested.
10. [Baicheng, Jilin Province] The Police Arrest Falun Dafa Practitioners
After arresting Taonan district Dafa practitioners on July 28, the police from Baicheng Area started to arrest practitioners in Taobei district. Currently, more than a dozen practitioners have been sent to a brainwashing center. The agencies that participated in this persecution included local residency offices, the "610" Office, and police from the city's police department. Several practitioners went missing around August 10. The police strictly monitor practitioners' homes and their family members' lives are severely interfered with.
The arrested practitioners included Wang Xueshun, Zhang Gouzhong and his wife Yanghong. Zhang Gouzhong will soon be released because of his poor health.
11. [Baicheng, Jilin Province] Police Arrest Falun Dafa Practitioner Liu Yang
On March 30, after following Baicheng practitioner Liu Yang for several days, the police arrested him outside an Internet bar in Taobei district. The police confiscated his motorcycle, cell phone, a notebook computer, and several thousand Yuan in cash.
Liu is currently illegally detained at Baicheng Detention Center and will be illegally sentenced in a few days. The mayor of Baicheng personally participated in the interrogation of Liu. Guan Dewei, a female head of the "610" Office and the Vice-Party Secretary of the City Committee, is in charge of the persecution of Dafa practitioners.
The police found the phone number of Liu's girl friend, who is studying in the United Kingdom and is not a Dafa practitioner, from his cell phone directory. They then charged him with "having a relationship with an overseas Western anti-China force."
12. [Baicheng, Jilin Province] Disasters Arrive in Clusters
Since March of this year, the evil forces in the Baicheng area have been wildly arresting Dafa practitioners and fabricating events to frame and slander Falun Gong, such as "Falun Gong kills children," "practicing suicide in order to go to heaven" and so on. Two Dafa practitioners have already been tortured to death. (Clearwisdom reported their deaths.)
This bad conduct caused a cluster of disasters in the Baicheng area. In May and June of this year, continual rain caused extensive damage to the area. Some areas had several episodes of hail. After July, the area experienced a drought. People are saying that this is heaven's punishment of the bad people. However, the evil people in Baicheng have not enlightened and instead have started another round of persecution of Dafa practitioners. They are holding brainwashing sessions in Taonan and Baicheng.
13. [Wuhu, Anhui Province] The Police Irresponsibly Arrest Falun Dafa Practitioners
Wuhu police have recently been irresponsibly arresting Dafa practitioners. They arrested practitioner Song while he/she was attending Wuhu Party School. We do not know the practitioner's whereabouts. Yan Yan, female, the Chief of Politics and Security Section in the Jinghu Police Branch Department, led some police in going to practitioners' homes and illegally searching and arresting them.
14. [Nanpi County, Hebei Province] Nanpi Police Department's Criminal Conduct Angers the Local Residents
This spring, Nanpi County Police and the "610" Office sentenced four Dafa practitioners using false charges. Male practitioners received the following sentences: Liu Peisheng, 5 years, Cheng Shouxuan, 3 years, Liu Zhonghua, 2 years, and Li Yanzhong, 2 years. In the summer, they illegally sentenced Chai Baohua (male), Qi Rui (female), and Wang Jialun (male) for clarifying the truth about the persecution. Recently, the police department arrested female practitioner Yang Shuxian from her home at 11 p.m. for no apparent reason. They tortured her for more than 36 hours on an iron chair. Yang went on a hunger strike to protest the torture and is still illegally detained. The conduct of the Nanpi Police Department has destroyed the citizens' families, violated the law, and greatly angered local residents.
15. [Gaizhou City, Jiaoning Province] The "610"Office Arrests Falun Dafa Practitioners
Yingkou in Jiaoning Province is holding forced brainwashing sessions to persecute Dafa practitioners. Many practitioners were arrested in Gaizhou City.
At 7 a.m. on August 6, 2002, the police arrested male practitioner Li Jiguo of Henan Village in Taiyangsheng Xiang in Gaizhou City at his home.
At 7 a.m. on August 6, 2002, the police suddenly arrived at the home of female practitioner Li Yaqin of Hongqiyuanzi in Gaizhou City. She did not open the door. Instead, she sat on the bed and sent forth righteous thoughts. The police broke a window, entered her home, and arrested her.
In the evening of August 4, 2002, the police broke into the home of female practitioner Wang Yan of Gaizhou City and arrested her.
16. [Nongan County, Jilin Province] Qiangou County Police Go to Nongan County to Arrest Falun Dafa Practitioner Wang Qibo
On the morning of July 13, posing as local police officers, the police from Qianguo County arrived at practitioner Wang Qibo's home in Nongan County. Without showing any identification, the police arrested Wang. In order to hide the facts, the police department and the detention center fabricated a list of detainees and lied about the event so that Wang's family could not learn any information about his arrest. To this day, they do not allow his family to visit. No one knows his whereabouts.
17. [Mianyang, Sichuan Province] The Police in the Fifth Middle Squad of the Fourth Squad at Xinhua Forced Labor Camp Are Infamous for Their Brutality
The guards Zhao Yu and He of the fifth middle squad of the fourth squad at Xinhua Forced Labor Camp brutally torture Dafa practitioners. This middle squad is known for its evil conduct. Not only do they widely use physical torture, the mental tortures they use are even more unbearable. Police Zhao Yu said, "We just want you to live without respect; yet without the courage to die." This middle squad often receives compliments from upper levels of government and the government leaders or officials from other labor camps often visit to study their methods and share experiences.
18. [Wuchang City, Heilongjiang Province] The Persecution of Falun Dafa Practitioners
Wuchang practitioner Zhang Meng was arrested on March 7, while distributing Dafa materials. After being illegally detained for three months, he was secretly sentenced to seven years in prison.
On July 9, the police arrested and brutally beat female practitioner Sun Yafang. She is now being detained at Wuchang Second Detention Center. Her husband, who is not a practitioner, is also being illegally detained at the detention center.
Practitioners Gao Shufen, female, and Cai Xin, male, were arrested while hanging Dafa banners. They are being illegally detained at Wuchang Second Detention Center.
In May, the police illegally confiscated the home of female practitioner Sun Shuhua and arrested her. She was illegally sentenced to a forced labor camp after being detained for three months.
In the beginning of July, the Wuchang City Police Department illegally sent 14 practitioners to a forced labor camp. Seven practitioners were sent home due to poor health. Soon after, two more carloads of practitioners were sent to a labor camp.
19. [China] Firmly Resisting the Post Office's Invasion of Citizens' Privacy
One day a practitioner went to a post office to send a letter by express mail. The post office staff wanted to check the contents of the letter. The practitioner said, "This is invading my privacy and I will not let you see it." When the post office staff insisted on examining the letter, the practitioner pointed out that what they were doing violated the law and firmly resisted their unreasonable request. After a fruitless dispute, the practitioner took back the letter and money and did not send the letter from there.
