[Jiamusi City, Heilongjiang Province] Falun Gong Practitioner Wang Lixin Left Her Home to Avoid Illegal Detention; Her Husband Dies as a Result of the Constant Harassment and Fear

Wang Lixin's husband, Gao Guangdong, was placed under great pressure. Li Zhuoshun, director of the police substation in Changqing Township, and Cao Wenbin, a policeman, frequently harassed and threatened him at home. Gao Guangdong was especially threatened and harassed during the time of his wife's absence. Wang Lixin was forced to leave her home in order to avoid persecution. The police even tried to harass their child at school. They deliberately spread the news that Gao should spend some money to settle this issue. Gao Guangdong became ill due to fear and intense pressure. He became afraid of any sound such as a knock on the door, a telephone ring, sound of a car or police siren etc.

On Oct. 28, Gao Guangdong became seriously ill and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. He died in the hospital. He left the world worried for his family members, with grief and indignation.

[Beijing] Jiang's Regime Carries Out Policy of Terror

During the 16^th Party Congress, every city was asked to pay Beijing 50,000 Yuan as a "fine" [equal to eight years' average income of an ordinary worker in China] for each of its residents who went to Beijing to appeal. Anyone capturing three Falun Gong practitioners on a train would be given a 3^rd level award. Whoever captured one Falun Gong practitioner would receive a 1000 Yuan award.

[Hegang City, Heilongjiang Province] Falun Dafa Practitioner Xu Jiting Is Illegally Sentenced to Seven Years in Prison

[Jinxi City, Liaoning Province] Falun Dafa Practitioner Gu Changqin Is Captured And Tortured

Gu Changqin, the former head assistant of Jinxi Falun Gong Assistance Center, was captured in May 2002. She is detained in the No. 2 Detention Center. She has been on hunger strike for a long time and has been force-fed many times.

In November, several police cars from the municipal police department and the "610 Office" sent Gu Changqin to the No. 2 Hospital in the city to be force-fed. At that time, plainclothes policemen could be seen everywhere in the hospital. Gu Changqin, out of her great compassion, clarified the truth to the policemen. Due to her resistance to force-feeding, she was taken away. Nobody knows where she is now being detained.

Gu Changqin, 47 years old, obtained the Fa in 1994. Since May 2002, she has been on hunger strike until November. She has lost weight and become extremely weak due to the hunger strike. However, the vicious thugs still sentenced her to forced labor camp. Because of her poor health condition, the forced labor camp didn't accept her.

We hope that all practitioners who have seen this news can help send forth righteous thoughts. We hope that all people who have a sense of justice and conscience will pay attention to her situation and the persecution of Falun Gong.

[Changchun City, Jilin Province] The Municipal Government Plans to Restructure Rent Policies in Order to Illegally Capture Homeless Falun Gong Practitioners

Presently, a meeting has been held in Changchun City to change the rent policies. The municipal Party Committee and government decided that from November 21, 2002 to the end of June 2003, a special citywide action would occur in Changchun City to reorganize and improve the rent situation. The action will be divided into two stages.

The first stage (from November 21, 2002 to January 20, 2003) focuses on reorganizing the renting of houses. The second stage (from January to June 2003) focuses on establishing an effective long-term administrative system. Therefore, the municipal Party Committee and government specially worked out a "centralized working plan to restructure the rent policies in Changchun City". It covers all the urban districts, counties (small cities), towns and big townships. A "three-in-one" related working system has been established, involving policemen in charge of household registration, house-renting administrative personnel and security cadres at the basic level. The municipal Party Committee and government asked for a building-by-building, household-by-household, person-by-person examination, registration and relevant procedures.

In the report, Falun Gong practitioner Zhou Runjun, who is accused of broadcasting the Falun Gong program in Changchun's closed-circuit TV program, is used as an example. The report points out that he rented a room in a residential area at the Qingnian Road for half a year. This indicates that the policy and report's purpose is to further persecute Falun Gong practitioners rather provide any benefit to the public as was stated. This action involves not only the public security system, but also many other departments to guarantee that every person be examined by checking his ID card, residence booklet, or temporary residence booklet, and other forms of identification. It is stressed that no street and lanes, no household, no individual should be missed.

[Laixi City, Shandong Province] Falun Dafa Practitioner Hu Keling Is Suffering in The Mental Illness Section of The No. 2 People's Hospital

In late September 2002, the "610 Office" and her husband abducted Hu Keling in Laixi City. She is currently being detained in the Mental Illness Section of the No.2 People's Hospital in Laixi City, where she has been suffering both physically and spiritually over fifty days. We, all the Falun Gong practitioners from Laixi City, ask for immediate release of Hu Keling. We solemnly remind people from the "610 Office" and the mental hospitals: Do not persecute Falun Gong practitioners and attack Falun Dafa any more; otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous. (The 610 Office is an agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political or judicial systems.)

We hope that people will pay attention to Hu Keling's situation.

People involved in the persecution:

Li Yanyu, deputy head of the hospital

Zuo Wenhua, director of the Mental Illness Section

[Baoquanling City, Heilongjiang Province] Three Falun Dafa Practitioners Are Captured

Zheng Guangzhen, a Falun Dafa practitioner from Jiamusi City, was captured in Suibin Farm on September 12, and then she was secretly transferred to an anonymous detention center. At that time, it was raining and cold. However, she was not allowed to bring quilts and clothes with her. She was lifted up with a rope and beaten. They didn't release her even though she couldn't breathe and lost consciousness. Her hands had become numb ever since that incident. Recently, she was transferred to the Baoquanling Detention Center and locked up with criminals. She is not allowed to be in contact with other Falun Gong practitioners. Her body has become swollen from the beatings and is in serious condition. There are about thirty Falun Gong practitioners being detained in Baoquanling Detention Center. It is known that these practitioners will be transferred to another detention center soon.

Zheng Guangqin, a Falun Dafa practitioner from Baoquanling City, had to leave her home for fear of illegal detention. At the time, over twenty policemen went to her home and ransacked it. Even her bed was torn apart. Three policemen stayed and ate at her home for a week. Her family members were affected as well. Her brother and niece were dismissed from their jobs.

Dafa practitioner Zhao Hongrong, also from Baoquanling, was captured on the same day.

[Yongnian County, Hebei Province] The "610 Office" Captures Many Falun Dafa Practitioners

Before the 16^th Party Congress, the "610 Office" in Yongnian County instructed each township, working unit, and police substation to monitor, follow and capture Falun Dafa practitioners. The practitioners' daily lives were badly interfered with.

The following practitioners are still illegally detained:

Zhang Xiangling, female, is from Qumo Village. The Qumo Police Substation forcibly searched her home and found some Dafa materials. She was thus sent to the detention center. She has been on hunger strike over twenty days, and refuses to yield to the evil though she had been force-fed with high concentration salt water several times. We hope that people of goodwill can help her.

Hao Zhishun, from Small Beiwang Village, was a bus driver at Yongnian East Bus Station. He was highly regarded by his supervisors and colleagues for his good work. Passengers liked to ride on the bus he drives, and they enjoyed listening to him when he clarified the truth of Falun Dafa. On November 5, Hao Zhishun was forcibly captured and detained by the Small Beiwang Township Police Substation. He had been on hunger strike for nine days to protest against the illegal detention.

Zhurong, whose last name is unknown, is from Baita Village. He was reported and then captured by the police substation in Liuhan Township. He had been on hunger strike for over ten days to protest against the illegal detention.

Li Hongqi is an employee from the No.1 Hospital in Yongnian County. Before the National Day (Oct.1), he was forcibly abducted on his way back after he bought some blank CDs in Shijiazhuang City. The thugs searched his home and took away his computer, CD-writer and all the CDs.

[Wuhan City, Hubei Province] The Police Frenziedly Round Up Falun Dafa Practitioners, About 200 Practitioners Are Captured in the Jiangxia Area

Before the 16^th Party Congress, many Falun Dafa practitioners were abducted at home for no reason. Many of them were carried to the police car. Some practitioners were stopped by the thugs on their way to work, body searched, and then captured and detained. The police abducted over ten practitioners who went for a walk in Sheshan (a scenic spot) and clamored that it was illegal to go to Sheshan. In the Jiangxia area alone, there were 200 Falun Dafa practitioners captured. They are presently detained in Wulijie in the countryside. Many more practitioners' homes are closely monitored. They are followed even when they go shopping at the flea market. Policemen and people from the neighborhood committee frequently go to harass practitioners at home.
