1. [Qing'an County, Heilongjiang Province] Falun Dafa Practitioner Lu Guiqin Arrested; Ms. Chen Jie Falls from a Building
Since the authorities in Qing'an County started a mass arrest campaign on May 11, 2004, Falun Dafa practitioners Ms. Chen Jie and Ms. Lu Guiqin were put into the Qing'an County Detention Center. However, they walked out of the detention center after staging a hunger strike. On the morning of September 15, police arrested Lu Guiqin from home again. It is not clear at this time why Chen Jie fell from the third floor of a building. She may have jumped in an attempt to avoid further torture and brainwashing in police custody, or the police may have pushed her out the window. It is not known whether she is alive or not.
On the morning of September 15, while a person was passing by the west side of the County Forestry Bureau's residential buildings, they saw a middle-aged woman fall from a third floor; her nose and mouth started to bleed right away.

It was found out later she was Falun Dafa practitioner Chen Jie. The police arrested practitioner Lu Guiqin who lived in the same building. Detailed information of Ms. Chen's condition needs to be further investigated.
