1. [Hebei Province] Persecution in Jidong Prison

Officials in Jidong Prison are continuing their attempt to "transform" practitioners. It has been learned that a practitioner who has been on a hunger strike for two years has been held at the Zhimu Team in Subdivision No. 1 and force-fed by two or three inmates each morning and afternoon.

Prior to April 25, 2007, the prison authorities located four former practitioners who betrayed their belief to intensively "transform" practitioners. The practitioners were deprived of a break at noon time. The practitioner on a hunger strike was extremely weak physically and had been taken to the hospital several times.

Mr. Sun Yaoting is a practitioner living in Sunpo Village, Goushi Town in the Yanshi area of Luoyang City, Henan Province. He has been illegally detained at the Yanshi Detention Center since December 23, 2006. He vomited blood three times in the detention center. Each time, he also coughed up blood, felt chest pain, had difficulty breathing, and suffered from pain in his lungs afterwards. He was diagnosed with tuberculosis after three checkups at the Yanshi City People's Hospital, each with results from X-ray examinations, blood and urine tests, and sputum sample analysis. During the third exam, he was found to have holes in his lungs. He continues to cough up sputum with traces of blood.

On May 8, Mr. Sun was secretly transferred to the Xinmi Men's Prison. The prison authorities refused to admit him because of his physical condition. Yanshi officials called his family and asked for cash for another checkup at the Luoyang No. 3 People's Hospital. Mr. Sun's family could not come up with the money. Mr. Sun's life is in imminent danger. Officials in the Yanshi Detention Center and those in charge of his case still refuse to release him.
