[China] "610 Office" Changes Its Name and Plots to Continue Persecuting Dafa Practitioners

Recently, the "610 Office " has been sued in several countries for brutally persecuting Falun Gong practitioners. To cover up their crimes, the "610 Office" changed its name to "Office for Clearing up Evil Cults."

According to a reliable source, Jiang's regime disregards natural and manmade disasters across the country, and takes no notice of the poor living conditions of those people suffering from calamities and the hundreds of millions of unemployed workers. In spite of all these misfortunes, the regime issued a secret document to make available large amounts of funds, prepare special vehicles and install surveillance equipment, all in an attempt to conduct a new round of persecution against Falun Gong. They do not dare to make public the document's content. The secret document is another attempt to brainwash all Dafa practitioners who are still practicing, and to make them write the "Three Statements. " If the practitioners do not comply, they are to be cruelly beaten and tortured until they do sign documents renouncing their belief.

We hope that all Dafa practitioners will send forth righteous thoughts, completely eliminate the evil that causes interference in other dimensions, and completely end the old forces' involvement.

[Huludao City, Liaoning Province] The Current Situation of Dafa Practitioner Wang Chengde Who Is Detained at the Huludao City Forced Labor Camp

Dafa practitioner Mr. Wang Chengde, from Suizhong County, Huludao City, Liaoning Province, has been on a hunger strike for over one month to protest his illegal detention. Currently he is being tortured by being force-fed with salt water. We hope that Dafa practitioners will help Wang Chengde by sending forth righteous thoughts.

[Xinjin County, Sichuan Province] Arrest of Several Dafa Practitioners

In the morning of October 15, 2003, when Dafa practitioners Ms. Wang Xiang, Ms. Zhang Qiongfang, Ms. Wu Xiouqing, Ms. Wu Yuzhen and Luo from Xinjin County were clarifying the truth at Xianzhu Temple in Xingyi Township of Xinjin County, police from the Xinjin County Police Department illegally arrested and sent them to Xinjin County Detention Center on the same day. Afterwards, when their families went to see them, officers from the detention center said, "They have been sent to another county."

On October 15, 2003, persons from Xinjin County Police Department arrested Dafa practitioner Ms. He Chengxiu from home . Before her arrest, the police ordered her to go to the Prosecuting Department. They lied to her, saying that it was the Prosecuting Department that wanted to see her because she was bailed out for medical treatment. Later, someone went to the detention center to see her but he was told, "You can get her information when she is on trial." It's likely that she is going to be illegally sentenced.

Recently, Xinjin County Police Department ordered all passenger transportation drivers in Xinjin County to report any Dafa practitioner who clarifies the truth about the persecution against Dafa while on a bus. They threatened the drivers that they equipped buses with monitors and if the drivers didn't report it, they will be fined 500 Yuan for each occurrence.

4. The "Three Statements" [Practitioners are coerced under brainwashing and torture to write these as proof that they have given up their belief. Created by the "610 Office," the three statements consist of a letter of repentance, a guarantee to never again practice Falun Gong, and a list of names and addresses of all family members, friends and acquaintances who are practitioners, and never again to Beijing to appeal.]
