News from Hainan Province
- Chen Qionghua, the Party Office staff person from the Danzhou City's Botany Institute and Botanical Research Institute in Hainan Province was planning to send 7 Dafa practitioners to a brainwashing class in Haikou City. All the practitioners working at the two institutions sent out righteous thoughts together to eliminate the evil. The day before Chen originally wanted to implement her plan, she fell down the stairs and became completely paralyzed. She was diagnosed as suffering from an incurable, unknown disease. Now Chen understands that it was retribution for persecuting Falun Gong practitioners, and she is very regretful.
- An old professor from Beijing told us a true story about when he came to Hainan to lecture. A senior professor at the Chinese Politics and Law University who practices Falun Gong is a very noble-minded person. In October, the "610" Office [an agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems] tried to force him to write a statement promising not to practice Falun Gong any more. He told them, "Falun Gong is the best and most righteous." A couple of days later the professor was mysteriously missing. His family members still do not know where he is.
- One day, two young practitioners in Haikou City, one 6 years old and the other 10 years old, saw the well publicized news on TV slandering Dafa. They immediately sat down with the upright palm hand-gesture and sent out righteous thoughts saying, "The Fa rectifies the Cosmos, the Evil is completely eliminated." One minute later, the TV screen lost all signals. By the time the signal was recovered, the program was already broadcasting other news.
- The director of a female labor camp in Hainan Province is a truly evil character. She prohibited family members from visiting any of the firm Dafa practitioners. She claimed it was the "restricted period." They would have to wait until the end of the year to see if the practitioner "reformed." They can only visit if the practitioner is reformed. Han, head of a sub-team, instigated the criminal inmates to tie up Dafa practitioners and beat them.
- Gong Yuhua, a female Dafa practitioner from Qionghai City, was arrested while distributing Dafa truth-clarifying materials on July 15, 2001. She has been illegally sentenced to one year of forced labor in Hainan's Sangongli Female Forced Labor Camp.
- Dafa practitioner Chen Youliang from Qionghai City went out to distribute truth-clarifying materials on October 14 and was arrested. A citizen mistakenly thought he was a thief and yelled for help. Later that person said if he had known Chen Youliang was a Dafa practitioner he would not have called for help. He said he had some knowledge about Dafa. Chen Youliang is currently illegally detained at Qionghai City's No. 1 Detention Center.
