1. [Chenzhou City, Hunan Province] Illegal Detention of Eleven Dafa Practitioners
During the evening of March 2, 2004, policemen transferred eleven Dafa practitioners from Chenzhou City's Luosiling Detention Center and from the Tiziling Detention Center to prisons far away from Chenzhou City. These practitioners have been illegally detained for more than one year. Four of them are from Chenzhou City, the other seven are from out of town. The Hunan Province "610 Office" (1) colluded with other departments and orchestrated the secret transfer and practitioners' sentences. They didn't notify the practitioners' families about the transfer, and destroyed the practitioners' letters to their families.
Jiang group's persecution has changed from overt to covert. One male practitioner transferred that night was originally from another city, but was arrested in Chenzhou City. Other practitioners learned of his situation in the car on the way to the facility, but his family and the outside are completely unaware of his arrest and sentence. Three practitioners were given food and water, so presumably they were going to a remote and isolated jail. Several female practitioners were sent to an unknown location. It is impossible for the practitioners to see each other because they are put in different cells, even though they are in the same prison. They also are allocated into different groups and are forced to do slave labor.
