1. The following is a list of some of the Falun Gong practitioners who were tortured in recent years.
Zhao Yuhong: Since July 20, 1999, she has spent almost all of that time in prison. She has been arrested numerous times and tortured by the 610 Office. She was sentenced to three years in the Shandong Province Women's Forced Labor Camp, which is located in Jinan City. Meanwhile, because of her strong persistence in her beliefs, the guards had her tortured. After her sentence was completed, she returned home and continued to clarify the truth. For that reason she was once again arrested by the Zhaoyuan City 610 Office. The staff members there interrogated her using brutal torture. All of the persecution caused long-term memory loss and the inability to speak. Her thumbs were disabled, and she couldn't take care of her daily needs without assistance. Even under these circumstances, she was still illegally sentenced to four years and confined in the Shandong Province Women's Prison. On March 18 of this year, her term was over. Because she refused to be "transformed," perpetrators delivered her directly from the Shandong Province Women's Prison to the Zhaoyuan City Brainwashing Center, where she was illegally detained. Her 75-year-old mother went to the center numerous times asking for her daughter's release, but to no avail.
Yang Wenjie: The Zhaoyuan City Police Department and local 610 Office arrested, detained, and tortured her many times. She is now detained at the 2nd Women's Forced Labor Camp of Shandong Province, located in Wang Village, Zibo City. Because she refused to be transformed, she was kept in solitary confinement for a long time. Once, she was handcuffed in the guards' restroom for four months. The skin on her wrists peeled off and the flesh gaped open. The wound has now healed, but left a purple scar. In 2005, at the end of her term, she still hadn't been "transformed," so the 610 Office sent her directly to a local brainwashing center, where she was still persistent in her faith. The head of the center Sun Qiquan ordered several thugs to beat her. They used clubs, ropes, belts, and leather shoes. Ms. Yang's hands were cuffed behind her back and then she was suspended in the air. They also hired drunks to beat her to near death. She was unable to get out of bed for several days and couldn't move a muscle. In order to force her to stop cultivation, perpetrators deprived her of food and water for five days. She stayed at the brainwashing center for several months but remained steadfast. They illegally sentenced her to a labor camp for two years. She is now detained at the 2nd Women's Forced Labor Camp of Shandong Province.
The Zhaoyuan City "610 Office" arrested Kao Fuquan and tortured him for seven consecutive days and nights. Later, he was sent to a labor camp for three years. His term has been completed and he is home now.
Guo Yuqing was detained in a labor camp for three years. During that time, he refused to give up practicing Falun Gong. The guards kept him from sleeping for more than twenty days and no water was given to him. His term is over and he is home now.
Liu Yaohua was arrested several times and sent to a brainwashing center. Led by the center staff members Song Shuqin and Sun Qiquan, Liu Yujiu and Liu Cuihua of the brainwashing center brutally tortured Liu Yaohua many times. She lost consciousness and nearly died.
Zhang Shuxiang refused to be "transformed" when detained at the brainwashing center. Song Shuqin instructed thugs to beat her severely. As a result, she wasn't able to eat normally for about six weeks. Her vision was blurry for many days. In 2006, because of her persistence in practicing Falun Gong, Sun Qiquan and others handcuffed her and hung her up. Her body had symptoms of a severe illness. She couldn't walk without two people holding her up on each side. Nevertheless, she was still sentenced to jail for four years. Currently, she is being detained at the Shandong Province Women's Prison located in Jinan City.
Li Zhaoxia was arrested and detained illegally many times by the Zhaoyuan Police Department and the local 610 Office. She was once sent to a labor camp for three years. When her body showed symptoms of illness, she was given an early release. Because of the repeated long-term imprisonment, she is very weak. Her former employer fired her.
Shao Zhouxian was detained at the Zhaoyuan City Brainwashing Center. She refused to be "transformed" and was subjected to torture. The perpetrators also injected an unknown drug into her. She suffered great physical and psychological pain.

Sun Guo was arrested in the years 2001 and 2002. Police of the 610 Office tortured him. Later, he was sentenced to eight years in prison. Currently, he is at the Shandong Province Prison.
