They said, "Yes." The police arrested them and sent them to the Tieling Forced Labor Camp. They were sentenced to three years of forced labor. Mr. Guo escaped with the power of righteous thoughts during a work session at the labor camp, but he was compelled to go into exile to avoid recapture. He returned home during the Chinese New Year and the police arrested him again. He was released after they extorted 5,000 Yuan from him.

Mr. Liu Zhenguo was sent to the Huangjintun Forced Labor Camp. He was a little slow when eating lunch, so the guards knocked out his front teeth. Pressured by the guards, he reluctantly wrote a guarantee statement and was released in July or August 2004. In early 2005, after he went home, the head of the local police department went to his home and said to him, "Don't go anywhere; just practice [Falun Gong] at home." At 6:00 p.m. on February 2, 2005, several officers from the Pingdingbu Police Department saw five practitioners doing the exercises. They phoned the Tieling County Police Department, which dispatched several officers who went to Mr. Guo's home and arrested five people: Ms. Xu Yajie, Ms. Song Lianzhi, Ms. Liu Ying, Mr. Guo Lianyang and Mr. Liu Zhenguo.

At the custody center, the police interrogated Mr. Guo and asked about the source of the Dafa materials. The police savagely beat him and shocked him with electric batons until the batons broke. Mr. Guo could not walk afterwards. They extorted 5,000 Yuan from each of three female practitioners. They were then released several days after writing guarantee statements. Mr. Guo and Liu Zhenguo were sentenced to three years of forced labor and are currently being held at the Lingdong Forced Labor Camp.
