According to information that has just arrived, three more senior female practitioners are in critical condition as a result of severe torture:

- Cui Xiuyun, female, 50 years old, half of her body became paralyzed on March 24, 2003, and she is only semi-conscious.
Being afraid to take responsibility, the forced labor camp is trying to release the three practitioners on bail for medical treatment.

Currently, Wang is detained in Weibei Farm in Weifang City. The perpetrators also ransacked his/her home and took away property valued at approximately 200,000 Yuan [Chinese dollar. The average monthly salary of an urban worker in China is about 500 Yuan, but only 200 Yuan for a rural worker].

The manager of the No. 3 Electric Construction Company, Wang Lujun, and directors of the Vehicle Group, Zhang Lianzhou and Zhang Dongsheng persecute Dafa and Dafa practitioners in many ways.
