Facts of the Persecution
On the evening of February 21, 2004, about one thousand colorful banners with the words: "Falun Dafa is great" and "The Global Coalition to Bring Jiang Zemin to Justice" were hung up on all the main streets and on the ends of all the lanes in Wuchang City in Heilongjiang Province. On the morning of February 22, the city commissioners held an emergency conference and gave the order to the National Security Department and the "610 Office" (1) of the Public Security Bureau to heavily persecute any Falun Gong practitioners. Presently, it is known that Dafa practitioner Mr. Wang Hongwei has been abducted by the police and is being held at the Second Detention Center in Wuchang City as of February 22. He is going on a hunger strike to protest the persecution. The collaborator (2) Zhao Shuxian and others have confessed to the police that Ms. Yu Lihua, Ms. Liu Yanchun and Ms. Wu Fenghua are Dafa practitioners, and practitioner Ms. Yu Lihua's home was ransacked and she was forced to leave her home. Meanwhile, her two children have been left in the home without care.
Practitioner Ms. Zhang Wanxia from the Qingdao Licang District of Shandong Province, a thirty-year-old, was kidnapped at her job in September of 2003 because she persisted in her belief of Falun Dafa. She was sentenced to three years of "reeducation through forced labor" and is being held at the Zibo Wangcun Female Forced Labor Camp. She has been persecuted by being not allowed to sleep, punished by standing for long periods of time, and has been beaten and suffers from cold temperatures. She was beaten until her face was swollen, her feet, legs, and back have been injured so seriously that she cannot stand up straight or walk. Her life is in danger.
On January 10, 2004, four policemen from the National Security Department of Helong City and the Bajiazi Forest Public Security Bureau from Jilin Province broke into Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Zheng's home to confiscate her property and try to abduct her. Ms. Zheng's husband felt he had no choice, and to prevent the policemen from taking such outrageous actions, he picked up a knife. The four police were so scared that they ran away from Ms. Zheng's home and shouted: "Help!" Soon many more police showed up. Some of them looked for Ms. Zheng at her neighbor's houses, and others went to Ms. Zheng's mother-in-law's house to search for her. Because of the big scare, Ms. Zheng's mother-in-law became sick for ten days and the family's happiness for the holiday season of Chinese New Years was totally destroyed.
In December of 2003, the police destroyed a Falun Gong material production location in Weiyuan County (in Sichuan Province) and over ten practitioners were abducted. The police took the computer and the printer used to make the truth clarification materials. Some of the practitioners who were abducted are Mr. Liu Wanquan, Ms. Liu Jianping, and Ms. Luo Jianxin and her daughter, etc.
Dafa practitioner Wang Yingdong (Shandong Province) is a forty-seven year old male. In January of 2000, Wang Yingdong kindly clarified the true facts about Falun Gong to the government of Yantai City. As a result he was illegally held at the Zhijia Sub-Police Station for a week and was extorted of about five hundred yuan (3). On November 9, 2003, the officials of the "610 Office" jumped over the brick wall into his home's courtyard, broke into his house, and took him away. Wang Yingdong was held at Yantai City Detention Center (Dongliugong Jail) and was beaten. In the Detention Center, he was hung up in the air by his arms and was forced to work for twenty hours every day.
Evil Actions
The head of the "610 Office" and the head of the Detective Department of Lixia District Public Security Bureau in Jinan city, Shandong Province, Li Dongfang is a muscleman who has been persecuting Falun Dafa practitioners for over four years. He is either involved in planing or has directly participated in evil actions such as spying on practitioners, following them, searching their houses, kidnapping, and sending practitioners to Forced Labor Camps. In March 2003, he was directly involved in the abduction of Ms. Peng Guixiang, sending her to the First Women's Forced Labor Camp in Shandong Province.
