[Fushun City, Liaoning Province] Wang Xiaoming, a Dafa Practitioner and also a Policeman, Has Been on a Hunger Strike for 108 Days and Is in Critical Condition
Mr. Wang Xiaoming, a Dafa practitioner, is a policeman from Xinping County's Yongling Police Precinct in Fushun City, Liaoning Province. On May 13, 2002, officers from Fushun City's Police Department suddenly came to the Yongling Police Precinct and beat Wang Xiaoming as they saw him. They beat him on the way from the second floor to the first floor, until Wang Xiaoming was covered in bruises. Finally they forcibly took Wang Xiaoming away. The "610 Office" authorities [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] used all kinds of tortures to force him to abandon his belief, but Wang Xiaoming never gave up. So the lawless officials of the "610 Office" sent him to the Wujiabaozi Forced Labor Camp. Since May 13, Wang Xiaoming has been on a hunger strike, so far for 108 days and he is in grave danger.
We hope the international community will help him.
[Qingyuan County, Liaoning Province] Brutal Torture of Dafa Practitioners in the Dashagou Detention Center
Four Dafa practitioners were illegally detained in single cells in Qiangyuan County's Dashagou Detention Center of Liaoning Province. They were Ms. Ma Yanchun, Ms. Gao Shan, Ms. Gao Guilan and Ms. Zhang Chunzhi. These good women have been on a hunger strike over 90 days to protest the illegal persecution. They were so emaciated that their eyes had sunk into their sockets. They are in extreme danger.
Even though Ma Yanchun was in the most severe circumstances, instead of releasing her, policemen tortured her with brutal force-feeding. They didn't care about Ma Yanchun's life. Every time the stomach tube was pulled out it was covered with blood. After every force-feeding, Ma Yanchun would twitch about during the day and her heart would beat very fast. At present, she has lost lots of hair and her weight has dropped to 25 to 30 kilograms from a previous 65 kilograms. Policemen told Ma Yanchun, "We will not release you until you at your last gasp. It's OK as long as you won't die here."

[Lianzhou County, Liannan County and Lianshan County, Guangdong Province] Multiple Arrests of Dafa Practitioners
On July 16, in the Counties of Lianzhou, Liannan , Lianshan and some other towns, lots of colored pictures of "Falun Dafa Spreads All Over the World" were posted at all main streets. This became well known in Yuebei's mountainous area and effectively shocked the evil. Unfortunately, that was the reason the vile gangs began to relentlessly arrest Falun Gong practitioners. Mr. Lai Fentian, Ms. Lai Xiouying, Mr. Tang Xianjun, Mr. Tan Junhui, Mr. Feng Zhijun, Mr. Liu Guohua and Ms. Tan Jianju and other practitioners were arrested.
Wu Yukun, from Lianzhou County's "610 Office," Tang, chief of the political and security section, Deng Hanhua, Huang Keping and some other policemen formed a "special cases group." They were divided into three shifts and took turns to illegally interrogate Dafa practitioners. They claimed, "Sleep will not be allowed for Falun Gong practitioners if we cannot attain our goals. Each of you will be investigated."
It was heard that practitioner Mr. Tan Junhui escaped the evil den on the way to a detention center. But afterwards, policemen forcibly detained his father, though the details are unknown.
Falun Gong practitioners Mr. Li Guangzhi and 70 year old Ms. Zeng Chunlian are still illegally detained at Lianzhou County's Detention Center. Practitioners Ms. Tao Shangzhen, about 70 years old, and Mr. Liang Zhili had to lead a homeless life since early 2000, when they escaped with righteous thoughts from the senior citizen's home where they were illegally detained. No message about them has been heard as of now.
Since July 20, 1999, over 40 Dafa practitioners in Lianzhou County have been illegally sent to forced labor camps and over a hundred Dafa practitioners have been illegally detained.
Collaborators Hou Yinping and He Ying, [former Falun Gong practitioners who have gone astray due to brainwashing and torture] are aiding and abetting the gangs who are persecuting Dafa practitioners.
[Guangdong Province] Atrocities of Jiang Zemin's Regime Bring Disaster to People in Western Guangdong Province

The flood in Lianzhou City besieged more than 70 thousand people and destroyed 5 thousand hectares (12,350 acres) of farm land. Taigang Town in southern Lianzhou City was overrun by a mud and rock landslide, which ruined 24 houses and made hundreds of people homeless.
[Fushun City, Liaoning Province] Fushun City's Police Department Officials Mistreat Practitioners with Inhuman Tortures
Officials in Fushun City Police Department force newly detained Dafa practitioners to write the "three statements." [These statements declare that practitioners are sorry they ever practiced Falun Dafa, guarantee never to go to Beijing to appeal for Dafa, will not associate with other Dafa practitioners and will give up their faith in Dafa]. Dafa practitioners are mistreated with various inhumane tortures, such as beating them with a big wooden board, kicking, elbowing, or "sliding on the liver tip," which is slapping practitioners' throats with one's palm. Even prisoners are allowed to shock practitioners with electric batons; needless to say guards can do so. On the night of August 17, 2001, guard Zhang Neiqin told prisoners, "You are representing the government. Go ahead, beat those Dafa practitioners who cannot be transformed." So the prisoners beat practitioners so brutally that practitioners' backs and buttocks were covered with blood. Sometimes practitioners were beaten so badly with a big wooden board that they could not walk or sit for months.
In the winter, guards had prisoners strip off practitioners' clothes, then slowly pour cold water on them. Each time they used dozens of basins of water. This torture was called "Water-dropping." Practitioners who had cold water poured on them kept shivering all the time.
Guards assign prisoners to monitor practitioners. Each class has two prisoners as leaders. A big class would have four prisoners as overseers. Prisoners monitor practitioners around the clock. They can abuse practitioners at will.

[Nanjing City, Jiangsu Province] Criminal Record of Gulou District's "610 Office" Authorities
The Gulou District's "610 Office" is located at the No.14 Institute, a military research institute in Nanjing City. In the past three years it has been the No.1 entity among the 11 districts in the city to persecute Dafa practitioners. Since July 20, 1999, more than 100 steadfast Dafa practitioners have received inhumane treatment. Some of them were detained at "hotels" for half a year, some were sent to mental hospitals, some were torn from their families, some were illegally sentenced to forced labor and some were abducted. Zhang Chang'ai, head of "610 Office" at the No.14 Institute, has persecuted Dafa practitioners for a long time. He detained Dafa practitioners in a row of bungalow rooms that belong to the "610 Office" at the No.14 Institute and strictly separated them from the outside. He locked up practitioners indefinitely if they refused to give in, turning the military research institute into a concentration camp. A few weeks ago, Zhang instructed the Jiangdong Police Station to detain Dafa practitioner Yu Jianshe for one day, simply because the practitioner had a piece of paper reading "Zhen-Shan-Ren" ("Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance") underneath his glass desktop. Practitioner Ms. Zhang Aidong visited Yu Jianshe during her lunch break and was reported to police. On the evening of 13th, Zhang Chang'ai sent her to the brainwashing class at the "610 Office." Zhang Aidong was released last year, after a 1.5-year-stay in a forced labor camp.
