Falun Dafa practitioner, Mr. Ma Xuejun is being detained in the Jiamusi Detention Center. Currently, his physical condition is critical because of the torture he's faced. He cannot get out of bed, cannot talk, and his life is in danger. The police not only refuse to release him, but also force his wife to pay for his medical treatment.

Yang's husband was beaten for six hours, and the hair on his beard was pulled out. Under intense pressure, he was forced to take the police to Ms. Chen's brother's home. The police then arrested Chen's brother and sister-in-law (both non-practitioners). They could not find Feng and Chen for several days, so they abducted Chen's two sisters (one is a practitioner, one is not).

She was beaten and tortured in the Echeng City Detention Center. The most severe torture she received was when she was sent to the Wanjia Labor Camp. She was locked in a small cell there many times, shocked with electric batons, tied up with ropes [a form of torture], and was suspended in the air by her arms until she passed out, among other torture. She went on hunger strike to protest the torture, but the police brutally force-fed her.

He was detained in the Chenghai Detention center, and was then sent to the Sanshui Labor Camp, where he was held for one year. After his term ended in September 2001, he went to Beijing to appeal. He was missing for one year, and was then sent back to the Chenghai Detention Center. In September 2001, he was sent to the Sanshui Labor Camp for another year of detention.

The following are crimes Mr. Zhao Lihua committed in the Dashagou Detention Center in Qingyuan County, Fushun City, Liaoning Province: During October, 1999, whenever Ms. Ma Xiuwen tried to practice the Falun Dafa exercises in the middle of the night, Zhao shocked her with high voltage electric batons. Falun Dafa practitioners went on group hunger strike to protest the cruel torture. Zhao was afraid to be punished since he had done this independently, so he begged Falun Dafa practitioners to forgive him, but never actually changed his behavior. In January 2003, Zhao used an electric baton to shock Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Wang Faxiang's face, cuffed both her hands behind her back and onto a heater, and force-fed her. Sometimes, the force-feeding tube was put down her throat more than 10 times, which caused her extreme pain. As a result, Wang Faxiang's physical condition worsened. She often felt dizzy, and would twitch and faint.
