For the criminal evidence against Jiao Xuexian a police defendant from the Xing An Labor Camp, please see Appendix.
Recently, several prison police in Chinese labor camps were sued in German courts. This is the first time that Chinese police involved in the persecution of Falun Gong have been sued overseas.
On November 21, 2003, German criminal lawyer Wolfgang Kaleck was requested by German Falun Dafa Association and 40 Falun Gong practitioners from Germany, China, USA, Canada, Australia and Ireland to submit a lawsuit against the former Chinese Chairman Jiang Zemin and Chinese officers regarding genocide, crimes against humanity and torture, as well as dangerous bodily harm to Falun Gong practitioners in China to the chief prosecutor of the German Federal Criminal Court. The defendants' list was provided by the "World Organization to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong" (WOIPFG).
The characteristics of the lawsuit in Germany
1. If the defendants are found guilty in the lawsuit, the verdict would not be limited to only a monetary fine, but also an arrest warrant by the German court. If a defendant arrives in Germany, he could be arrested and imprisoned. If the charge is tenable, the primary persons responsible for participating in the persecution can be sentenced to life imprisonment.
2. There are numerous plaintiffs with various backgrounds. There are Western Falun Gong practitioners who petitioned at Tiananmen and were persecuted. There are Chinese practitioners who were personally persecuted in Chinese labor camps. There are Chinese and German practitioners living in Germany, whose relatives or friends are still imprisoned because they practice Falun Gong. All the plaintiffs have conclusive evidence.
3. This is the first time, since the persecution of Falun Gong in July 1999, that Falun Gong practitioners have filed a lawsuit overseas against guards and prison police in Chinese Forced Labor Camps who directly committed the torture and crimes. This criminal lawsuit includes not only Jiang Zemin, Luo Gan, etc., who are responsible for launching the persecution, but also the people who were directly responsible for the crime.
4. The plaintiffs also submitted 818 cases of those persecuted to death. There are detailed descriptions about how they were tortured to death and a list of the parties directly responsible for each case. The German Federal Criminal Court can prosecute each case or deal with it as if it were a class action suit.
Regarding this lawsuit, German Falun Gong practitioner, Ms. Zheng expressed that many Mainland China participants in the persecution of Falun Gong think that they are not responsible when they comply with a higher authority's instructions. However, in fact, except for the prosecution's prime culprit, Jiang Zemin, these officers who spare no effort in the persecuton also are responsible for their actions. This lawsuit is also a wake up call to all the those who persecute Falun Gong under the instigation of Jiang Zemin.
Lawyer Wolfgang Kaleck, from Berlin, known for his work as the legal representative for German victims of the Argentina Armed Forces Junta, represents the Falun Gong practitioners. In the Argentina case, Germany's Nuremberg local court sent out arrest warrants for three Argentina dictators, including Argentina's former president after the initial investigation.
With lawsuits in various overseas countries developing, there will be more
concrete evidence of the persecution used in the overseas courts, possibly even
for the Chinese courts.

Evidence against defendant Jiao Xuexian, Chief of the third brigade, Beijing Xinan Forced Labor Camp,
According to what is known, Xiong Wei studied in Germany for six years. In January 2002, while she was in Beijing distributing materials about the persecution of Falun Gong, the police arrested her and sentenced her to one and a half years of "re-education through labor" in the Xinan Female forced labor camp in Beijing, which is well known for its cruel methods of torture. The following is a part of the evidence, which has been disclosed on Minghui.net, about how Jiao Xuexian and the Beijing Xinan Female forced labor camp, third brigade, persecute Falun Gong practitioners.
Personal insults and torture
On February 20, 2001, when Zheng Libin, Zhou Genzheng, Zhong Yang and about ten people were learning the Fa and exchanging experiences, they were tracked by an informant. Many police vehicles arrived and sent them secretly to a national security bureau detention center. They tried to force the Dafa practitioners to tell them who was their so-called "organizer". The police isolated the practitioners one to a room, and tied them to a chair for 24 hours. Several prison police from the Xinan Female forced labor camp were then brought in. Among them were Manager Li Jing (male), brigade chief Jiao Xuexian (female) and several "assistance and education personnel." In the daytime, Jiao Xuexian, a police woman, shamelessly ordered the "help and education personnel" to insert slanderous notes against Falun Dafa onto practitioners' bodies, clothes and shoes to break their will. From morning to evening, she forced Dafa practitioners to listen to the slanderous nonsense. If they did not listen, she would beat them with a book. Jiao Xuexian frequently spoke filthy words to male Dafa disciples. In the evening, Li Jing, who was drunk, used several electric batons to shock Dafa practitioners. Cries of misery could be heard all over. This situation continued many evenings. Many practitioners, including Zheng Libin, suffered badly from the torture.
Encouragement of criminal activities by other inmates
On one very cold morning in 2002, policewoman Jiao Xuexian (Team leader of the 3rd Division) sent all 3rd Division's prisoners to the exercise field to knit sweaters. Four hours later, when the prisoners went back to their holding areas, they were greeted by a mess in the room. Chicken bones and water were all over the floor. The heater was broken. Five collaborators surrounded and beat Tao Xueling. Tao's chest and stomach were injured. She could not breathe normally, and her genital area was seriously damaged. As a result, she had difficulty going to bathroom for a considerable length of time. However, these thugs (Zhang Su, Zhang Cuifen, Han Jiwei, Yao Mingming and others) were officially "recognized" by the camp and rewarded with reduced prison terms.
Sexual assault and inhuman bestiality
(Reference: http://www.clearwisdom.net/emh/articles/2003/6/24/37303.html)
At around 1 a.m. in April 2002, prison police closed all the iron gates in the hallway. Policewoman Jiao Xuexian (Team leader of the 3rd Division), policewoman Huo Xiuyun, and five or six collaborators and thugs viciously tortured Dafa practitioner Lang Dongyue. They stripped off her clothes, and hit her with their fists, feet and sticks. These beasts even shamelessly used a toothbrush to sexually assault Lang Dongyue. They forcibly inserted the toothbrush into Lang's vagina, and violently forced it in and out, scraping her inner vaginal area to cause her extreme pain. Prison police spat chewed food onto her body. Jiao Xuexian used her high-heel shoes to step on Lang again and again with all her strength. They wrote filthy words defaming Falun Dafa all over Lang's body.
Deliberate spreading of an infestation to destroy the will of practitioners
Practitioners who were infested with scabies were denied treatment and not isolated. Newly imprisoned practitioners received scabis infested bed sheets and blankets and their new bed supplies were taken by the police. The police used this strategy for their own benefit. The clothing and bed sheets, infected with all kinds of skin diseases from released prisoners, were reused without being washed or disinfected. This caused a serious scabies epidemic in the camp. Simultaneously the police used this same strategy to undermine the will of practitioners. In some groups, more than half the detainees had scabies. Late at night, one could hear the continuous sound of detainees blowing the mites from their skin. They could not sleep, because their bodies were crawling with insects.
Harrassment and Threats are Used to Force Transformation
Between February and March 2001, the Chinese Academy of Sciences researcher, postgraduate candidate, teacher and the State Council's special award recipient Li Baoqing, 64 years old, was taken to Beijing Xian Forced Labor Camp. He was forced to paticipate in the third and the fourth brainwashing classes. The brigade chief Jiao Xuexian threaten him: "When you enter this class, you will have to transform. If you do not transform, you could be sent directly to jail. In jail, you have to transform anyway, otherwise, you will never walk out. There is no expiration of the imprisonment term here. Law and legal procedures are not for Falun Gong. There are special policies for Falun Gong."
The spirit suffers from their methods of brainwashing
Chenying is a Falun Gong practitioner from Beijing who is studying in France. She has written two articles on Minghui.net to disclose the true situation in Beijing Xian Forced Labor Camp's third brigade from November 2000 to November 2001.
She explains that the third brigade universally uses sleep deprivation. Newly detained practioners are not allowed to go back to their bedroom if they don't renounce their beliefs. They are detained in the lobby, aisle or washroom for many days. Furthermore, they are punished if they crouch, and must stand for extended periods of time or are beaten violently. They even are beaten by the other criminals. At last, they are sent to a special team for more brutal torture.
In her other article, she describes the process of how the third brigade persecuted Falun Dafa practioner Zhang Yijie. They opened a special room, which was black as night, without sunlight. They used continuous brainwashing and sleep deprivation to torture her. The police forced her to sit on a small bench and listen to "transformed" practitioners talk and present brainwashing materials to her in shifts. Her legs were swollen due to long periods of sitting. Anytime she fell asleep, she was awakened. They just wanted her to write the "guarantee letter" while in a confused state.
Planting hatred that destroys human nature
About his detention in the Forced Labor Camp, Cheng Ying said: "Through the deceptive propaganda and slander and hatred implanted in me, the brainwashing made my personality and mind severely distorted. It was so terrible!"
Setting people at odds, fabricating rumors
If someone in a group returned to practicing Falun Gong after he was forced to write the "guarantee letter," the whole group received an extended brainwashing period. Everyone in the group had to express what he thinks about the presentations. This way, Policewoman Jiao Xuexian made everyone distrust each other. With this method and intense social pressure, nobody dared to express their true aspiration in a group, even when they were alone.
Make use of the love of ones family, distort the facts
Jiao Xuexian utilized Zhang Yijie's love of her twin daughters to force her to transform. The policewoman made full use of everything to attack Zhang Yijie emotionally, including creating misunderstandings with her daughters' classmates, her daughters' confusion about her, etc. Also, her son's studies were affected and his mood turned gloomy. Jiao blamed the results of her persecution on Falun Gong to force her to give up her belief.
Economic persecution, right and wrong reversed
In the Beijing Xian Female Forced Labor Camp, third brigade, a firm practitioner was shut in a dark room. One day, an absolutely terrified scream was heard from the room. This horrific experience made practitioner Ms. Qi, who already had been very weak, become very ill and she was sent to the hospital. Jiao Xuexian did not punish the one who bullied Ms. Qi in the room, but she required Ms. Qi's mother to pay the hospital bills.
Exploitation of labor and mind control
In the third brigade, as soon as inspectors arrive, the work of making money for the police must be stopped immediately. This means that activity is illegal. Long periods of hard work and brainwashing cause fatigue and a neurotic state. People just don't have the time to think clearly and resolve the issues in their minds.
Impudently and shamelessly hiding the facts
Prison police officers Jiao Xuexian, Huo Xiuyun, Mr. Kui always provoke prisoners who abused drugs to inhumanely torture Dafa practitioners. They watched and laughed, and spoke a lot filthy words. They also forced Dafa practioners to run for a very long period time without, and to stand still or crouch for a very long time. Jiao said shamlessly: "This is not called corporal punishment, their excessive fatigue will help them sleep well."
When foreign journalists came to visit, only "transformed" persons were selected to have a geography lesson for the first time. However, those who were firm in Dafa were concealed. Two thirds of the beds and benches were removed to make the rooms look tidy. Rooms without beds were closed off on the fourth floor. Aisles and indoor areas were cleaned. Some goldfish and fresh flowers were brought in. All the fish died several days after the visit.
Fear of retribution
Though the third brigade treated Dafa practitioners poorly, whenever inspectors came, the police requested that every practitioner write "Good," "Civilized law enforcement ," "no corporal punishment," etc. on the investigation form. However, nothing evil can be concealed forever.
