Facts of the Persecution

In December 2002, the police at Masanjia Forced Labor Camp carried out a large-scale persecution of Falun Gong practitioners for over 20 days. On the first day they threatened practitioners to "transform." On the second day those who did not give in were forced to squat. After the 3^rd or 4^th days, practitioners who did not give in were hung up while handcuffed and shocked with electric batons. Those who still did not renounce their beliefs would be bound up with their legs crossed. Practitioners who had difficulty tolerating the pain and yelled had tape put over their mouths. Most of those who were tortured in this way could not walk. Hu Ying, Su Ming, and Tian Li have not spent even one night in bed since they arrived at the "re-education" center. They sit on small boards day and night, and some of them have been there for almost 2 years. Zhang Haiyan and others were tortured until they suffered a mental collapse. Zhang Yunxia and Liu Yanwen were only allowed to sleep half a night.

The Truth and People's Hearts

A New Falun Gong Practitioner from Mainland China: I obtained Dafa in April, 2003. I am 66-years old. Before I obtained Dafa I suffered from blood clots, heart diseases, and many other illnesses that were hard to cure. I was on injections and medication continuously but the illnesses got more and more serious. I felt that my life would not last much longer. One morning, I ran into a Falun Gong practitioner. A week later I learned all five exercises. Now I can walk without difficulty in breathing, and I do not feel tired when working. My legs are not painful anymore. I no longer need injections nor medication. When I finished reading Zhuan Falun for the first time, I understood many questions that used to be hard to resolve. Upon the fourth year of the persecution of Falun Dafa, I want to sincerely advise those in a maze: the Master of Falun Gong is the most compassionate and greatest Master of the whole world who offers salvation. Jiang is the most ugly, most brutal, and most vicious criminal leader. I warn those who only focus on bonuses while ignoring heavenly principles and those who only believe in the power of authority instead of the power of gods, to learn the truth about Falun Gong. If you do not stop quickly, karmic retributions will come immediately.

A family letter became the "proof" for detention. Through normal procedures, Xiao Haiying went to Hong Kong to travel and visit her family. On July 2^nd, she went back to Beijing and was searched at the airport. A family letter from her sister to her mom was found. The Chinese Public Security Bureau took her away for interrogation. She was asked to tell the whereabouts of her mom, who was forced to leave home by the government in October 2000 for practicing Falun Gong. The police wanted to send her mom to a brainwashing class. Her sister Xiao Wenhong is one of the spokespersons of Falun Gong in Hong Kong. She thinks that Xiao Haiying's being released on bail early is only a compromise on the surface by the Chinese Communist government under pressure from the international community. But the persecution toward Xiao Haiying has not ended. At present Xiao Haiying has lost her job and is under constant surveillance while out on bail.

A warning to the judges who go against the law by participating in the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners at Lixia District Court in Jingnan City: the Falun Gong practitioners that were illegally sentenced are all innocent people. The only excuses for the sentences are that they went to Beijing to appeal, distributed flyers, or posted truth clarification materials. Those are the most peaceful actions of responsibility toward the nation, toward human beings, and toward oneself under the totalitarian control and terror against the people's voice. You are the guardians of law, but you do not conform to the law; instead you are directly against the law. We hereby advise you once again to immediately stop committing crimes.
