[Daqing, Heilongjiang Province] Record of Persecution of Dafa Practitioners in Dongfeng Labor Camp
At the end of February, the guards on duty in Section II of Dongfeng Labor Camp played Mah Jong [A traditional Chinese gambling game] during work time. Because of their neglect of duty, the criminals were left unwatched, resulting in fights among criminals. Consequently, one criminal's head was seriously injured. The leaders of the labor camp criticized the guards and said: "You did not control the criminals well, and you didn't do a good job with Falun Gong practitioners." The guards then vented their angers on Dafa practitioners. They seized ten Dafa practitioners who kept practicing Falun Gong and tied them up outside in the freezing winter weather; the temperature outside was lower than C10 0C [less than 140F]. They did not allow practitioners to talk, and tried to block the passage of information outside of the labor camp.
In addition, on March 12, a so-called "Transformation Team" came to give reports; the guards forced all practitioners to attend. Two Dafa practitioners (Du Yin and Zhu Hongbin) stood up on the spot to stop them from slandering Teacher and Dafa. As a result, these two practitioners were put on handcuffs and shackles and shut in special cells.
Latest News: On March 13, four more Dafa practitioners were sent to Dongfeng Labor Camp. These four practitioners are Yang Qing, Xu Bin, Li Ling, and Cao Jingdong. According to the information obtained from people inside, the condition in the labor camp is extremely bad; we hope that kindhearted people will pay attention to it.

[Fujian Province] Crimes committed by Policemen
I am from XX city, Fujian Province. At present, there are six practitioners among my family members. Before the Chinese New Year, my third and fifth son went to Beijing to validate Dafa. After my sons left, the local government staff and policemen were in a great panic. While they organized people to intercept my sons, they illegally limited my freedom. They detained me in Village Office in XX District for 10 days, and even kept me detained during Chinese New Year.
On January 31, my wife's uncle passed away; they released me then because I strongly requested it (They also forced me to write an application for leave). During this period of time, they took my third son back from Beijing. They first illegally detained him and then sentenced him to one year and three months in labor camp. They did not even inform my family about the sentence until half a month later. On the evening of February 5, my fifth son returned home after validating the Fa in Beijing. The next morning policemen blockaded my home. In the beginning, my fifth son debated with the Vice Secretary Shen from Police Substation until Shen was unable to advance any further arguments to justify himself. Around five O'clock in the afternoon, seven police vehicles came in one after another, sending sixty to seventy people to my home (including policemen and government staff). They arrested my fifth son. Over ten people also grabbed my wife, my fourth son, and me. They did not release my son until nine o'clock at night.
[Fujian Province] The Deeds of A Dafa Practitioner: Validating Dafa, Not Cooperating With The Evil
I am a Falun Dafa practitioner from Sanming City, Fujian Province. On January 21st of this year, I went to Tiananmen Square to validate Dafa alone. I was violently beaten by the policemen on Tiananmen Square and illegally detained in Miyun County Detention Center in Beijing. In order to validate Dafa, I started a hunger strike and resisted them with my life. After this contest between good and evil, they had to release me after the 49-hour illegal detention.
On the morning of the second day after I was back to Sanming City, the local government staffs and policemen blockaded my home. Vice Secretary Shen from the police station, who is in charge of the matter, ordered me to go to the police station for investigation, I refused. He said that they were just fulfilling their official duty. I questioned him, "Is this about the Falun Gong issue?" He said yes. I said, "If I myself have any problem, I should corporate with you. But today you aim at Falun Gong, so I must seriously point out to you that your behavior is against the law! I don't recognize it, let alone cooperate with it!"
When faced with this appeal to justice, he lowered his head and said nothing. After a while, several police vehicles sent in dozens of policemen. In the end, Shen revealed his corrupt nature, and said, "I don't care that much, you have to come with me anyway." Upon his word, six or seven cops and government officers rushed up in a crowd, pouncing on me, my parents, and my brother (they are all practitioners). They dragged us to the police vehicles by force and sent us to the police station. In the entrance of the police station, I shouted "intolerable to the course of nature"; they seized me by the throat immediately.
When faced with the so-called interrogation, I just ignored them. The policeman who was in charge of the trial was shamed into anger and openly called me an offender! I said calmly, "You are right, I was an offender before, but I have changed into a good man now. It is Falun Dafa that has changed me. I am strict with myself, using high standards; I can give up my life for truth. How about you? Your appearance looks reasonable, but you can't distinguish good from bad. Without our Teacher's benevolence, teaching me to treat every life with goodwill, you would not be even qualified to talk with me!" In the afternoon, I was informed that I would be given criminal detention (it was probably a joke, since it was cancelled soon after). They then sent me to a detention center. In the detention center, I once again protested with my life that their behaviors that openly tread on the law. They were terribly frightened; they then put handcuffs and shackles on me. At the same time, my parents and brother protested at home. The local government and the police station had a guilty conscience and had to release me after a 4-hour illegal detention.

[China] We Must Truly Understand Fa From The Perspective of Fa, Only By Treating the Fa as Teacher Can We Distinguish Good From Evil, and Eliminate Attachments
At present, the situation in China is very complicated; people's hearts are incomprehensible. Some swindlers usurped the phrase of "The Need for Promoting Fa" taking advantage of practitioners' kindness to cheat practitioners. Some cheat for money, some try to trap more practitioners, some betray Dafa and slander Teacher while at the same time claiming that they have been enlightened to a higher level Fa and have succeeded in their cultivation, etc. It is so chaotic and ridiculous. But no matter how extravagant their descriptions are, they are merely playing the base tricks of those who have lost all codes of ethics; the tricks are utilized to help practitioners to recognize their own fundamental attachments and insufficient understanding of Fa.
As long as practitioners can truly understand the Fa from the perspective of the Fa, instead of treating a human being as Teacher or acting according to feelings and imagination, they will be able to do whatever they are supposed to do with more rationality and wisdom, following the cultivation path arranged by the Teacher, clarifying the truth, revealing the evil, and validating Dafa. Only by letting go of our attachments and remaining righteous can the evil be eradicated.
