[China] Phone Lines With Access to the Internet Will Be Checked

According to reliable sources, the cadres with ranks of "department levels" and up secretly held meetings. They were preparing to block ALL information from the Internet about Falun Gong and the practitioners. Now, by going door to door, they start to check for every phone line accessible to Internet.

The continuous revealing of the truth by the practitioners abroad is having a severe impact on the persecutors. That is why they have begun to completely block any information that reveals the truth.

[Heilongjiang Province] They Will Intensify the Crackdown on Practitioners in the Province

A few days ago, Xu Youfang, the head of Heilongjiang Province's Committee, gave a speech on television. He threatened to intensify the crackdown on Falun Gong practitioners.

Recently, a great amount of "truth flyers" appeared in Harbin City to disclose the frightful crimes perpetrated by Jiang Zemin. Based on Xu Youfang's plan, the Public Security Department deployed students of Harbin City Police School (including students of Heilongjiang Provincial Police Officer Institute), to patrol and watch and keep under surveillance each district after 12 midnight. Their duty was to arrest those Dafa practitioners who posted Dafa truth flyers in the night hours. Unfortunately, several practitioners had been detained.

Nowadays, the evil police installed video-camera monitors on every major street intersection of Harbing City. Police monitored the city with this equipment day and night.

[China] The Righteous Mind of A Paralyzed Senior Man

A senior man, who has been paralyzed for over ten years, always carried a tape-player with him. During the already 18 months of suppression of Falun Gong carried out by Jiang Zemin, this senior man was suspicious about the news reported from the government. Why has the government put in so much effort to crack down on Falun Gong while ignoring the corruption in the party? He felt it was necessary for him to learn more about Falun Gong. So he asked his son to find the audio-tapes of "Master Li Hongzhi's lecture in Jinan [City, Shandong Province]". He listened to the tapes everyday. He was totally convinced by the great connotation of Falun Dafa. He told his son, "There is nothing wrong with 'Truth, Compassion and Tolerance.' Why would they prohibit people from being a good person while they themselves keep on corrupting the country? Is it a sin to become a good person?"

[Suixi County, Guangdong Province] Practitioners Detained and Heavily Fined

Practitioners in this county have been continuously appealing in Beijing since July 1999. By the end of December 2000, 26 practitioners had been sent to Sanshui Labor Re-education Center without any legal procedure. The county policemen fined practitioners who went to Beijing from 3,000 to 10,000 Yuan [US$350 to $1200, average monthly income is about $60]. They sealed practitioners' houses and took their pigs and cows away. Some practitioners were expelled from their jobs by their work units; some were not released until after more than four months of detention. In spite of this intensified persecution, practitioners still continue to go to Tiananmen Square and telling the truth to people. They have accomplished a great amount of work to safeguard Dafa.

The leader Huang Ling in the county police station is the chief culprit to suppress Falun Gong practitioners.

More than 70 practitioners are detained in Xishanping Labor Re-education Camp at Beipei District, Chongqing City. The guards of the camp apply various measures to maltreat practitioners. For example, they stole for themselves 51 Yuan of the 96 Yuan monthly allowance for each practitioner; without having any reason, they often beat and abused practitioners. Sometimes they ordered common criminals to brutally beat practitioners.

They did not allow relatives to visit or write to practitioners. They forced practitioners to listen and watch the audio or video-tapes that viciously attack "Zhen, Shan, Ren (Truth, Compassion, Tolerance."

Now the persecution is escalating. We appeal to all kind-hearted people in the world to pay attention to this evil Labor Re-education Camp.

[Shijiazhuang City, Hebei Province] Detention Center Persecutes Falun Gong Practitioners

The Second Detention Center in Shijiazhuang City persecuted practitioners. To suffocate the evils, practitioners refused to cooperate with their illegal suppression and mistreatment. They also refused to being interrogated or do forced labor, and they went on a hunger strike. Consequently, the Detention Center brutally tortured practitioners claiming they had violated the "rule of the prison." Practitioner Liu Tao was beaten and had his hands cuffed behind his back because he refused to be photographed for identification. Practitioners Chen Ji, Cui Shufang and Zhang Man were also handcuffed with their arms behind their backs for refusing to perform the forced labor and going on hunger strike.

They ordered the common criminal prisoners to beat and psychologically torture the practitioners. When the practitioners refused to perform the forced labor, the evil policewoman by the name of Zhang ordered all criminals to stop working and further ordered the criminals to read out loud articles that slandered Dafa. Practitioners for their part, as a counter-measure, recited Jing Wen (Master Li's articles from <>) to stop the devilry. Practitioners Chen Ji, Cui Shufang and Zhang Man were severely beaten by the criminals. The policewoman Zhang was indifferent to the tortures. The head of the center also turned a blind eye to the beating and did nothing to help the unjustly punished practitioners.

[Suining City, Sichuan Province] Evil Forces Viciously Persecute Dafa Practitioners Who Were Detained Illegally During the Spring Festival

1. In Baosheng Village, in the severe cold weather, the evil poured ice-cold water on Dafa practitioners being detained and had electric fans blow cold air on them.
2. In Nanqiang Town, they forced practitioners to verbally abuse Master. Every morning at 9'o clock, those who refused to do so would be beaten and tortured with their hands cuffed behind their back. Their three daily meals consisted only of watery Congee [rice gruel, a type of bland rice soup].
3. In another district, an elderly couple and their 2.5- year-old grandson were detained together for four days. They were also fined.
4. Every time after the unscrupulous police caught people and forced them into their vehicles, they would question and extort information to find out which practitioners had money at home. Then they would detain those practitioners who kept money at home for the purpose of fining them large sums of Yuan for their release and keep the money for themselves.
5. An elderly lady, witnessing such an arrest scene asked the police the innocent question: "What did the Falun Gong practitioners do?" As a consequence, she was taken away together with the practitioners. She was released after negotiations and handing over 200 Yuan.
6. Several hundred practitioners being arrested this time were detained in the courts that were secretly and surreptitiously set up in different villages and towns. They suffered all kinds of tortures and abuse. They have not been released till today. Those devils never went through any legal procedure, as required by law, when they arrested Dafa practitioners. They always arrested them in the dark of night.

[Yantai City, Shandong Province] Middle School Students Were Doubtful About the Lies

After the Spring Festival, all working units in Yantai City received yet another directive from "higher level of government" to study the "Self-Immolation Event" collectively. Even the students in school had to do the same. However, recently something happened in a middle school in Yantai City that made people ponder about this. When a teacher talked about the "Self-Immolation Accident in Tiananmen Square," in accordance to what the mass media propagated, she said that Falun Gong practitioners put themselves on fire. At the moment, a student raised his hand and asked a question, "Teacher, I can't understand one thing. There are two aunties (kindly older women) in my neighborhood who practice Falun Gong. I know their cross-legged posture. If the self-immolated person also practices Falun Gong, why is his cross-legged posture not correct?" While the teacher kept silent, another student asked, "Teacher, don't they inspect the passengers very strictly to ensure no inflammable material is brought on the train? How could those people have brought gasoline to Beijing?" This led to a heated discussion in the class. The teacher's face became flushed and the teacher didn't know what to say.

[China] To Falun Dafa's Friends in Canada:

Thank you for supporting the justice for humankind. Thank you for seeing the world as a village and stepping forward to stop the evil in another country as if it were happening in your neighborhood. You regard "Human Rights Have No Boundary" as a universal principle and uphold the justice during the time when Chinese people need help.

From some ethical and righteous people in China.

[Shijiazhuang City, Hebei Province] Special Agents Get Promoted by Catching Falun Gong Practitioners

On January 21, a distant relative of a practitioner (who has not been unable to stay at home for more than one year) visited his home from the Shijiazhuang Railway Sub-Bureau Office. He stayed for a long time. Finally, a family member of the practitioner questioned him whether he is a special agent. He finally told the truth. "I will be promoted and get rich if I can catch a Falun Gong practitioner." His assignment is to watch the passengers on the trains traveling between Shijiazhuang and Shanghai trains. He usually inquired around and tried to find any Falun Gong practitioner. Once a Falun Gong practitioner was identified, he would arrest the practitioner illegally. There are some other secret assignments for agents in the Shijiazhuang North Section. This is another crime conducted by the head monster, Jiang Zemin, in his persecution of Falun Dafa practitioners and the people.

The special agent's employee ID number is 990755, issued by Shijiazhuang Railway Sub-Bureau Office. Please take special note of this situation.
