2. [Jilin City, Changchun Province] Dafa Practitioner Zhu Guangtao is Illegally Arrested by the Dongzhan Police Station

Mr. Zhu is 53 years old. He has left home for almost three years to avoid the persecution by Jiang Zemin's regime. Around November 5, 2003, he was arrested by the Dongzhan Police Station and sent to an unknown place on the second day.

Zhu was arrested by the Dongzhan Police Station in 2000, and was persecuted there for 9 months, which left him with a scar over ten centimeters (four inches) long on his face, which is still visible now. His wife is also a Dafa practitioner, and she was persecuted and extorted of at least 50 thousand Yuan [Chinese currency unit, the monthly income of an typical Chinese worker is about 500 Yuan].

Phone numbers of the Dongzhan Police Station:

86-431-4948597; 86-421-4962074; 86-431-4914181; 86-431-4724806

After being arrested for half a month, Lu escaped successfully with his righteous thoughts. The same day, the National Security Bureau issued a warrant for him.

7. A Reminder from China: Please Handwrite the Addresses on the Envelopes Used to Mail Dafa Truth Clarification Materials.

A fellow Dafa practitioner in China asked me to remind Dafa practitioners in China through the Clearwisdom website that when using letters to send Falun Dafa truth clarification materials to the public, it's better to write the envelopes and the contents by hand. Because printed materials are checked much more strictly. Handwritten letters or letters that appear hand written, will have a higher chance to be delivered.
