Facts of the Persecution

-- Falun Dafa practitioner, Mr. Jing Zhixin from Huadian City, Jilin Province is detained in Yinmahe Labor Camp of Jiutai City. On February 23, 2004, he went on hunger strike to resist the persecution. He was transferred to Ward No. 1, where most prisoners are detained for drug charges. Mr. Jing clarified the truth to all prisoners there, and helped them to have a positive understanding of Falun Dafa. On March 31, 2004, Wang, the labor camp clinic director, force-fed Mr. Jing very roughly, which caused Mr. Jing's nose to bleed profusely, so that blood covered his shirt. Several prisoners who were former drug addicts questioned Wang, "Are you a veterinarian or a doctor?" Later, all of the prisoners there condemned Wang.

-- Falun Dafa practitioner, Mr. Pei Guangbin, 35, was formerly a volunteer assistant for the Falun Dafa Assistance Center in Huludao City, Liaoning Province. For firmly believing in Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance, Mr. Pei was harassed by corrupt officials beginning on July 20, 1999, when the persecution began. He has been forced to attend brainwashing classes, put under house arrest, detained, and sent to a forced labor camp. He didn't give in to the evil, solidly held on to his beliefs, and endured both mental and physical torture. On March 31, 2004, after he had been married for less than one year, both he and his wife Yang Yuhong were abducted by police, and detained in the Huludao Detention Center. Mr. Pei has now been sent to the Lingyuan City Police Hospital for emergency treatment since his life is in danger.

During a physical check-up she was found to have tuberculosis, but the police will not release her.
