[ Wuhan City, Hubei Province] Thousands of Banners and One Hundred Thousand Dafa Flyers Gloriously Celebrate "Wuhan City Falun Dafa Day"
On February 7, 2002, to celebrate the first "Wuhan City Falun Dafa Day," Falun Dafa practitioners hung over 100 banners along the highway from Wuhan City to Gedian City as well as in small towns along the highway, which effectively frightened the evil and brought peace and happiness to the local people.
On "Lichun Day" [the first day of spring on the Chinese Calendar], Dafa practitioners from Wuhan City spent the first "Wuhan City Falun Dafa Day" in many different ways to clarify the truth to the people. According to a rough count, about 10,000 different self-sticking messages were posted along streets or roads in the three suburbs of Wuhan City. The messages read, "Abolish 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], "Bring Jiang Zemin and Luo Gan to Justice" or "Falun Dafa is Good." Different banners, balloons, whistling horns, CDs and other materials were used to clarify the truth. The several thousand banners were especially effective to suffocate the evils. During last two days a number of police enforcers were dispatched. Plain-clothes policemen were dispatched in the train stations and harbors to arrest practitioners.
[Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province] Brutal Torture Imposed on a 63 year-old Practitioner in Xi'an City's Female Forced Labor Camp
I was 63 years old and was put into a forced labor camp due to my belief in Falun Gong. On December 3, 2001, the enforcers in Shaanxi Province's Female Forced Labor Camp convened all practitioners to listen to the speech given by someone named Wang from the science institute. He talked about how he, along with the heads of China's Buddhism Association, had slandered Dafa in China and overseas. In order to safeguard Dafa, I spoke loudly to stop him. The abusive enforcers came at me, gagged me and dragged me out of the hall. They kicked and beat me every two or three minutes. My face was swollen and my eyes became black from the beating. My legs were fully covered with bruises. As they feared other practitioners had seen the torture, I was detained alone and was forced to write self-criticisms. Such a thing happened frequently among Dafa practitioners. Every practitioner was watched by two or three people and was restricted in everything they did. Elderly people like us were forced to work 15 or 16 hours per day, with a weekend off. If there were three days of legal holidays, we were only allowed to take one day off. I was persecuted in such a way for over one month.
[Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province] Kidnapping of Dafa Practitioner Li Jian by Persons from the Public Security Department at Xi'an's Cable Factory
My husband is Li Jian, 40 years old and used to work in the sales department of the Xi'an Cable Factory. Because he practices Falun Dafa, he was conditionally suspended from work, keeping his employment position for one year and receiving a salary of 100 Yuan per month (about $12). Since I didn't have a job and we had two children to bring up, we couldn't maintain our basic needs. So Li Jian asked to quit his factory job at the end of December 2000 and the factory authorities agreed. He started to work in a private company and worked hard day and night. At about 8:00a.m. on October 30, 2001, Yu Yalin (or Zhan Yalin) from the public security department of the Xi'an Cable Factory called Li Jian with the excuse of "helping him find a job." When he knew Li Jian was at home, within 5 minutes, Yu Yalin, Meng Jianhui, a woman, a policeman from the Taoyuanlu Police Station and two officers from the "610 Office" [An agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Psrrty and all other political and judiciary system] broke into my home and required Li Jian to attend a brainwashing class held at the Changqing Rehabilitation Center in Lintong City. Li Jian protested their illegal request and explained that he was the only one to support the whole family. Afterwards, Cai, director of the Taoyuan Street Police Station and several policemen pulled and dragged him into the waiting vehicle and forcibly took him away. After many people on the spot got to know the details, they were all angry. My husband Li Jian has been away from home for three months so far. No one cares about my daughters and me.
[Luchuan County, Guangxi Province] Lawless Policemen Brutally Torture Dafa Practitioners
Since July 1999, police officers from Luchuan County had always threatened and persecuted Dafa practitioners, such as illegally interrogating practitioners, monitoring practitioners' activities and their private phone calls and detaining practitioners many times. During the last two years the enforcers have arrested and detained 83 practitioners and four family members of practitioners. Among them, 12 practitioners have been illegally sent to forced labor camps.
Policemen of Luchuan County relentlessly abused Falun Dafa practitioners during their arrest, their detention and interrogation. The methods of abuse are unscrupulous. In order to force practitioners to admit their so-called "crimes" that the authorities invented they threatened and grossly abused these practitioners. They took turns to interrogate the practitioners for two days without a break. The practitioners were not permitted to sleep or go to bathroom, and were forced to kneel down. In order to avoid recognition from practitioners during these abuses they covered the practitioner's heads with thick bags and then beat the practitioners to the point of sustaining bruises all over the body. The practitioners were forced to work over 15 or 16 hours per day. Those practitioners who could not finish the overload work on time were put in shackles.
The facts:
Practitioner Mr. Liu Xin and his wife were brutally beaten with the bags covering their heads. Now they have been sent into a forced labor camp.
Practitioner Mr. Xie Guixing and his family members were persecuted. His wife has been put into a forced labor camp.
Other practitioners have been persecuted and harmed, such as personal threats, home ransacking and illegal internment.

[Yulin District, Guangxi Province] Large Scale Kidnapping of Dafa Practitioners
Recently, policemen from the Yulin District of Guangxi Province staged a large-scale arrest of Dafa practitioners. During this action, policemen illegally arrested many practitioners and interrogated them over 24 hours without a break. While the interrogations were in progress, Dafa practitioners were forbidden to use the restroom.
Furthermore, these lawless policemen extorted large sums of money from practitioners and confiscated practitioners' valuable properties. Sometimes they even broke into practitioners' homes to steal money when practitioners were not at home. Right now, none of the local practitioners have any video players. Some practitioners' television sets were also confiscated.
[China] Two Practitioners were Prohibited from Getting Married, Even Though They Have a Marriage Permit
I know a fellow practitioner named A'zhen, (pseudonym) over 20 years old, formerly worked for a bank. In October 1999 she and some other practitioners went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong and unfurled a Dafa banner. Afterwards she was sentenced to one year of imprisonment in Beijing. A male practitioner was sentenced to 10 months imprisonment, and others were sentenced to 8 months.
After she finished the prison term and went back home, she fell in love with another male practitioner, A'bing, (pseudonym) a graduate student, when they spread and rectified the Fa and clarified the truth. Then they registered for marriage. They planned to hold the wedding ceremony in April 2001 and invited their relatives to come. However, on the day before their wedding, policemen arrested them, which hurt their relatives. They are still detained now and details about their situation are unknown. I miss them very much. Their names are pseudonyms to avoid further persecution.
[Zhuozhou City, Hebei Province] Records of Criminal Deeds Committed by Police Enforcers from the Zhuozhou City Police Department
Policemen led by Xie Yubao made money from persecuting Dafa practitioners. In 1999, they brutally tortured 20 Falun Dafa practitioners from the Zhuozhou Exploration Mine as the practitioners safeguarded Dafa. They beat practitioners, deprived them of sleep to force them to write the "guarantee statement" [to give up Dafa]. Many practitioners were beaten so badly that bruises covered their bodies. Practitioners' families were also extorted tens of thousand Yuan [500 Yuan is average monthly income in urban China].
Zhou Yumei, female, about 50 years old, was a resident of Lintun Village, Zhuozhou City, Hebei Province. In January 2002, enforcers led by Xie Yubo from the Zhuozhou Police Department kidnapped her to the notorious "Nanma Brainwashing Center." She has held the righteous thoughts and righteous belief at all times, and never gave in to the criminal enforcers. Later she was sent to the City Detention Center because she clarified the truth to the head of the "610 Office. " There has been no information about her since then.
[Huainan City, Jiangsu Province] Lawless Enforcers from Huainan City's Brainwashing Class Relentlessly Kidnap Dafa Practitioners
Lawless enforcers from Huainan City's brainwashing class arrested Dafa practitioners before the Spring Festival. The enforcers firstly ransacked practitioners' homes before the arrests. If they found any Dafa truth-clarifying materials, they would take this as the excuse to persecute practitioners. They imposed the persecution on every practitioner and even carried elderly practitioners who couldn't walk to the brainwashing class. Now many practitioners are forced to live in exile.
[Xi'an City, Shaanxi Province] Torture of Dafa Practitioner Pu Jianghong in Shaanxi Province's Forced Labor Camp
Dafa practitioner Pu Jianghong from Xi'an City was illegally detained at the Shaanxi Female Forced Labor Camp. Her relatives have not been allowed to visit her since October 2001. She was beaten because she practiced the Falun Gong exercises, safeguarded Dafa and launched hunger strikes many times, to protest the persecution. Her situation is very critical. We suggest to all practitioners to send forth righteous thoughts to help practitioners being persecuted and eliminate the evils in the labor camp.
Deputy director of the labor camp: Zhang Zhuoqing, phone number: 011-86-29-6227741
Address: Shaanxi Female Labor Camp, No.6 North Xuanwu Street, Fangxin Village of Xi'an City, 710012
[Liaoyang City, Liaoning Province] Criminal Policemen from Liaoyang Forced Labor Camp Brutally Torture 70 Year-Old Dafa Practitioner Zhang Shimian
When he was bailed out to receive medical treatment, Dafa practitioner Mr. Zhang Shimian told the public about the persecution he had undergone at the labor camp. In the labor camp, abusive policemen forced practitioners to do overload labor, but all practitioners rejected those demands. Then police officers together with criminals tortured practitioners by beating them, exposing them to the burning sun and shocking them with electric batons. Because Mr. Zhang Shimian exposed these evils, he was taken back to the labor camp and locked up in solitary confinement, with both hands handcuffed onto the wall all day. He was forced to keep that position even during the night when he was sleeping. Later, he was locked up in another small cell. Mr. Zhang Shimian launched a hunger strike to protest the torture. Lawless policemen instigated three criminals to twist his nose, pried his teeth open with a shoe brush to open his mouth to force-feed him, which caused Mr. Zhang Shimian to lose his two front teeth. After the force-feeding, he was not allowed to change his dirty clothes. Mr. Zhang Shimian is a 70 year-old practitioner. It was inhumane for these abusive policemen to torture such an old man in that way.
At the beginning of December 2001, Wu Yanqing, a criminal policeman, ordered Dafa practitioner Mr. Jiang Deting to come to his office. Without having any valid reason, Wu cursed Mr. Jiang and kicked Mr. Jiang's lower back with his knee so the practitioner fell to the floor. To cover the act of beating, Wu instigated criminals to give false testimony. The labor camp leader abetted Wu Yanqing's crime, which made him become even aggravated. After a month, Wu Yanqing beat another practitioner, Xu Zengchen, to the floor. Mr. Yu's front teeth were loose and bleeding. Wu again denied the crime.

[Qiqihar City, Heilongjiang Province] Dafa Practitioners' Brutal Torture at the Hands of Lawless Policemen
On one evening of early December 2001, "Falun Dafa is good" resounded from a solitary confinement in Group No. 1 of the Shuanghe Forced Labor Camp in Qiqihar City. Then we heard policewomen yelling. After that the cell had never been quiet. Screaming could be constantly heard. Later it was learned that the screaming practitioner is Kong Xianhua from Suihua City. People in other cells couldn't see how she was tortured, but they could always hear the wretched screams and abnormal noises from her cell. When these noises started, the policewomen always turned up the volume on the radio to prevent other people from hearing the screams. Practitioners in other cells asked the women police officers many times what was going on. The policewomen said, "She has a mental disease." Practitioners said, "If she suffers from a metal disease, why don't you let her go home? Why do you detain her in this labor camp? Her current condition is completely caused by your persecution." These abusive policewomen often severely punished those practitioners who dared to speak out. Now the police enforcers often shout at Kong Xianhua, "Don't scream, otherwise I'll give you another shot." Obviously, they have injected Ms. Kong with some unknown medicine, which made her become worse and worse.
We call on all kind-hearted people to pay attention to the brutal torture against Kong Xianhua at the Shuanghe Forced Labor Camp in Qiqihar City and help to rescue her from this demon's den as soon as possible.

[Laiwu City, Shandong Province] Kidnapping of Dafa practitioners
At around 9:00 p.m. on February 4, 2002, a group of enforcers from the Xinzhuang Township Police Department in Laiwu City broke into an over 50-year-old practitioner's home when he was sleeping. Without any warrant, they forcibly carried the practitioner away in his underwear and illegally detained him at the township police department. Later they transferred him to Laiwu City's Detention Center. Currently, the details are unclear.
[Dongfeng County, Jilin Province] Brutal Torture of Falun Dafa Practitioners Zhou Wenjie and Wu Lijuan
Mr. Zhou Wenjie, a teacher from Dongfeng County's No. 2 Middle School was illegally sentenced to one year of forced labor because he persisted in practicing Falun Gong after July 20th, 1999. Later, his detention term was extended by one year because he didn't give in to the evils demands to give up Dafa. In October 2001, Mr. Zhou openly and dignifiedly walked out of Heizuizi's Forced Labor Camp and melted back into the current of Fa-rectification. He went to Beijing to rectify the Fa and was arrested in Tiananmen Square. On the ninth day of his hunger strike he was sent to Changchun City. Mr. Zhou continued the hunger strike and didn't reveal his home address. Eventually he was unconditionally released. On December 17, 2001, people from the Dongfeng County Police Department again illegally detained him, when he was playing truth-clarifying videos. During the detention he went on a hunger strike to protest the illegal detention. His life is in extreme danger! On December 24, 2001, persons from the Dongfeng County Police Department illegally sentenced him to three years of forced labor, put him in a car and sent him to the Heizuizi Forced Labor Camp. Because he was extremely weak, the labor camp authorities didn't admit him. He was sent home and the police planned to send him to a forced labor camp later. Now he has got rid of the control of the evil forces and has to live in exile.
Ms. Wu Lijuan, a Dafa practitioner from Dongfeng County was tricked to tell her address after being arrested in Tiananmen Square when rectifying the Fa. Chen Shuangyou and another policemen from Dongfeng County went to Beijing to escort her back. They wanted to tour Beijing for a few days first so they told Ms. Wu, "You didn't do what you were supposed to do in Beijing. You didn't unfurl the banner (she was pushed down by policemen before she could unfurl the banner in Tiananmen Square). Now you should go to unfurl the banner again." On the second day, Ms. Wu went to Tiananmen Square again, unfurled the banner and was arrested again by policemen. Chen Shuangyou did a lot of shopping for himself and told Ms. Wu, "Your husband and your work unit will have to pay for this." After she was escorted back to Dongfeng County, she was illegally detained and by this time, Ms. Wu was emaciated from the abuse she is suffering in the camp.
During the interrogation, Chen didn't allow Ms. Wu to tell the whole story because he was afraid his bad deeds would be exposed, so he hastily sentenced Ms. Wu to three years of forced labor without a trial.
Ms. Wu has been sentenced to one year of forced labor and subsequently been moved to a mental hospital, for clarifying the truth. Now she is sentenced to three years of forced labor and is detained in Heizuizi's Forced Labor Camp.
[Dongfeng County, Jilin Province] Vicious Police Declare, "You Should All be Shot to Death."
Policemen from Dongfeng County were very rampant in their persecution of practitioners. They sent all detained practitioners to forced labor camps and said, "You'll find out how they are once you get the forced labor camp." They also said, "People like you guys should all be shot to death." The enforcers also fined practitioners huge amounts of money. After they escorted a practitioner back from Beijing, they confiscated all of his money.

[Gulang County, Gansu Province] Criminal Record of Foul Deeds of the Politics and Judiciary Committee Enforcers and Abusive Police Enforcers
The lawless authorities in Gulang County of Gansu Province closely followed the orders of China's ruling dictator in persecuting Dafa practitioners. Around the New Year's Day of 2001, they trapped and kidnapped 12 practitioners and illegally detained them for 180-300 days. They also extorted about 1,000 Yuan from each practitioner. Some female practitioners were sent to a forced labor camp without any due process of law. They were only shown the detention documents when they were about to be sent to Ping'antai Forced Labor Camp. Recently, as soon as a certain practitioner was released and had returned home, enforcers form Gulang County's Politics and Law Committee and from the security team of the police department immediately went to harass the practitioner who refused to let them in.
In July 2001, Dafa truth-clarifying materials and Dafa banners appeared in the county. The lawless enforcers were extremely frightened. They tricked two practitioners with the excuse of "having a talk with them" and illegally detained them for about 100 days. In the meantime, they also extorted lots of money from them.
February 4, 2002 is "Gansu Province and Lanzhou City Falun Dafa Day." Two of us practitioners went out to distribute Dafa truth-clarifying materials. When we handed out the flyers we said to people, "Today is Lanzhou City Falun Dafa Day." Most people happily accepted the materials with a bright smile.
[Lanzhou City, Gansu Province] Illegal "Lanzhou City Law Education Center"
Lawless enforcers in Lanzhou City set up a brainwashing class at the warehouse of a department store located in the Gongjiawan area. They put up a sign reading, "Law Education Center." Everything they did there, however, was thoroughly illegal, was against the law and violated the law.
Over ten Dafa practitioners who had been abducted to this brainwashing class were either arrested by force or had been tricked there. Some of them were kidnapped while having meals at restaurant with family members, some while they were taking care of their elderly parents at a hospital and some were forcibly taken away from workplaces.
Upon arriving at this the brainwashing class, every practitioner was extorted 6,000 Yuan, over and above the force-feeding "expenses" and "medical treatment fee." Each practitioner's work unit had to assign two people to watch a single practitioner. These two people ate and lived together with the practitioner and the practitioner had to pay their food and lodging expenses.
This brainwashing class is more horrible than prisons. Practitioners are not allowed to have contact with and talk to each other. They are not allowed to study the Fa or do the exercises. They are not allowed visits by family members. Even the most basic human rights are being ignored here.
Enforcers who "work" here include officials from the Municipal Political & Judiciary Committee, police officers from Municipal Police Department, so-called "experts and scholars" and some spies or people who have given up their practice of Falun gong and who claim to be "practitioners," such as Gao Furong, and others. The ratio between the "working staff" and Dafa practitioners is 7:1. Everyday, about seven to eight persons would surround a practitioner, shouting, threatening, abusing, slandering and rumor mongering. The means they had adopted were unscrupulous.
During that period they even brought a Dafa practitioner from Ping'antai Forced Labor Camp in Lanzhou City. This practitioner was beaten so severely that his legs became useless. They still put shackles on this practitioner though his legs were severely swollen. By doing so, the "Law Education Center" enforcers were attempting to "educate" those practitioners who refused to give in.
[Changchun City, Jilin Province] Enforcers from Labor Camps and Detention Centers in Jiutai City, Shuangyang City and Changchun City Learn Criminal Expertise from Heizuizi Forced Labor Camp Authorities
Recently, lawless enforcers from several labor camps and detention centers from Jiutai City, Shuangyang City and Changchun City gathered together at the Jihua Hotel in Changchun City to listen to the two directors from Heizuizi Women's Labor Camp introduce their criminal expertise in persecuting Dafa practitioners. The meeting lasted about a week. A police officer who went to the meeting came back and commented, "The 'quality' of police officers in Heizuizi's Female Labor Camp is really high!" When being asked in which aspects their "high" quality is manifest, he replied, "They treat female practitioners even more harsh than treating male practitioners. They shock practitioners as soon as they enter, kick and punch them, torture them day after night, order policemen and former practitioners to repeatedly brainwash practitioners, so as to cause practitioners to physically and mentally breakdown."
Du Xuefang, newly appointed female director of the municipal committee of Changchun City, who took over from her predecessor, the notorious Mi Fengjun, repeatedly claimed that she would surely intensify the persecution against Falun Gong.
[Changchun City, Jilin Province] People from the Terrorist Organization, the "610 Office," Again Set up a Brainwashing Class
From February 9 to 16, 2002, the "610 Office" in Changchun City again organized and ordered the enforcers from police systems, judiciary system, street administrative offices and various work units to report and arrest Dafa practitioners. This is the time of the Chinese New Year. However, these lawless enforcers kidnapped, abducted and arrested kind-hearted practitioners at their will without any legal warrants. This indicates these vicious people not only violated the national law but also lost their humanity. According to those who were assigned to work as accomplices in the brainwashing class were awarded 30 Yuan per day. Actually they are the most immoral persons from their work units.

[Liaohua District, Liaoning Province] List of Names of Perpetrators in the Liaohua District
In the brainwashing class held in Liaohua District, Liaoning Province, over a dozen former practitioners [people who once practiced Dafa gave up their practice due to intense brainwashing and torture and now aide the authorities] betrayed Dafa. They are now relentlessly persecuting practitioners. In the past one year plus, under the control of the evil forces, these persons attempted to trick other practitioners with what they enlightened along an evil path. Some practitioners resolutely resisted their behaviors and were thus being sentenced to a stay in a forced labor camp.
Huang Shuxiu and Bao Hao, who were released from Masanjia Forced Labor Camp, are the leaders of this group of perpetrators. Their "backbone" members include Zhang Haiyan, Jiang Liping, Ling Xiuhua, Liu Weiling and others. They racked their brains to collect information about all the Dafa practitioners in the area and reported them to the "610 Office." Around December 26, 2001, due to the damage caused by these former practitioners, two true Dafa practitioners in charge of distributing Dafa truth-clarifying materials were successively arrested and one practitioner was forced to live in exile in order to avoid illegal arrest. This has brought great damage to the local Fa-rectification work.
Since the latter half of the year 2001, lawless authorities started to formally pay those former practitioners 10 Yuan per day to continue to betray true practitioners.
