Facts of the Persecution
1. The Brutality of Policemen at the Mudanjiang Prison
The Mudanjiang Prison brutally torments Falun Gong practitioners who firmly refuse to compromise their beliefs. The torture includes sleep deprivation for entire days and nights, brutal beatings and kicks, long periods of forced standing, forced labor, shocks from electric batons, handcuffing practitioners' hands and feet tightly, locking practitioners in confinement, and more. In December 2004, Falun Gong practitioner Su Yan's eyes were injured, her face was disfigured, and she was given a severe bloody nose. Steadfast practitioners are not allowed visits or contact from their families. Practitioner Wei Xiaodong was severely persecuted and passed away after only a little more then ten days of torture. Another unnamed practitioner refused to be "transformed". As a result, he was locked up in confinement for three months. He was starved and became very skinny and emaciated. He died not long after being sent to the hospital. There are 22 wards in Mudanjiang Prison. In total, the prison is detaining about 140 Falun Gong practitioners. The police rigorously monitor practitioners and block information about the conditions in the camp from being exposed to the outside. The policemen often drag practitioners to dark places to secretly persecute and torture them, and many unnamed practitioners have lost their lives.

2. Persecution of Dafa Practitioners by the Chongqing Changan Public Security No. 1 Sub-Bureau and the Maojiashan Women's Forced Labor Camp
On May 13, 2005, the public security officers of the Changan Public Security Sub-Bureau strictly monitored Ms. Yu Qunfang's whereabouts. July 20 was one of the sensitive dates for the policemen [July 20, 1999, is the date that Jiang and his regime began their ruthless persecution of Falun Gong]. On this date, they closely monitored Yu Qunfang from their police wagon at the intersection she frequently used.
The Maojiashan Women's Forced Labor Camp nominally carries out so-called "human nature management," but in reality, they impose brutal physical and mental torture on Falun Dafa practitioners. The labor camp staff threatens practitioners daily, and practitioners are not allowed to leave the small room they are given or even wash themselves. In these small rooms, which are only about three meters by three meters, drug addicts monitor Dafa practitioners in three shifts, with two addicts per shift. Every day, practitioners are forced to stand in a military posture or sit in an upright position. The practitioners under 60 years old are forced to do half squats, and other exhausting exercises and postures. Practitioners are forced get up at five in the morning and are forced to stay awake until midnight. It is reported that Dafa practitioner Wan Chuanlian has been tortured in a small cell (1) for four months since the beginning of her illegal detention. Ms. Wan has suffered a mental collapse, and she now has very slow reaction times.
(1) A small cell is a room of less than three square meters. It has no window, no bed, no water, and no toilet. The practitioner is locked in a small cell for months, having to eat, sleep, and relieve themselves in the same small area. Since the height of the room is less than 1.5 meters, the practitioner cannot stand straight. To exacerbate the agony, the guards often handcuff the practitioners to the small cell door so that the pain prevents them from being able to sleep.

3. The Cruelty of the 610 Office in Guanxian County, Shandong Province
Ren Guangmin from the 610 Office in Guanxian County, Shandong Province, uses extremely cruel means to persecute Falun Gong practitioners. Because of this, he has been made the head of the Guanxian County 610 Office. All of the persecution in Guanxian County in some way relates to 610 Officer Ren Guangmin. Tian Dongqi, also from the 610 Office, puts forth great effort in persecuting Falun Gong. Because of this he was promoted to the Secretary of the Yanzhuang Village Party Committee and locally he has become most unscrupulous. Yet another perpetrator, Xue Lianchun, has arrested, detained, fined, sentenced, and "re-educated" thousands of Dafa practitioners. Because of his efforts in persecuting practitioners, he was promoted to Commissar of the Guanxian County Public Security Bureau. Chen Yuezhi, formerly the assistant chief of the Politics and Security Section of the Public Security Bureau, has taken over Xue Lianchun's position as brigade chief, and still continues to persecute Dafa practitioners. Shi Xuezeng has been promoted to 610 Office chief due to his extensive efforts in persecuting Falun Gong. Jing Jun, led by Tian Dongqi, has also participated in the persecution of practitioners, and Jing has been promoted to Secretary of the Guanxian County Party Committee. Ma Wenchang also persecutes Dafa practitioners; once he cruelly tortured a female practitioner causing her to be bedridden for a long time. His actions led to his promotion to deputy chief and deputy principal of the local 610 Office. Sun Xiumin has also become deputy chief of the 610 Office and a deputy principal because of his persecuting Dafa practitioners.
