Ms. Wang Lin, a 17-year-old middle school student, lived in Machang, Suileng County, Heilongjiang Province. In July of 2002, Wang Lin attended a joint entrance exam for a provincial high school. In the politics section of the paper there was a question defaming Falun Gong. Wang Lin answered the question truthfully stating: Falun Dafa is good, and Falun Dafa is righteous. Later on officials from the Political and Judiciary Committee, Police Department and Provincial Education Committee came looking for her. Wang was forced to leave home to avoid further persecution. Unfortunately her parents had been falsely arrested and beaten by personnel from the "610 Office."* (previously reported by Minghui)

* The "610 Office" is an agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems.

In May of 2003, Wang Lin was working in Harbin City where she was seized by the police and detained in Suileng up to the present date. We ask for help from people from all walks of life to help Wang Lin escape from such a dangerous situation. The specific order of the chief of the "610 Office" in Suileng County were to detain her until she turns the legal age [in China one can be sentenced only when he/she reaches 18 years old], then sentence her.
