April 28, 2004

(Clearwisdom.net) Since July 1999 (when the persecution of Falun Gong began officially), government officers in Wenling City have unlawfully sent Falun Dafa practitioners, people who follow the principles of "Truth, Compassion, Tolerance", to forced labor camps. Below is a partial list of jailed Falun Gong practitioners.

Ms. Wu Misu, born in 1966, is from Ximen Street, Xinhe Town, Wenling City, Zhejiang Province. At the end of December 1999, she was detained at Wenling Detention Center for practicing Falun Gong with a group in a park. After one month of detention, she was transferred to a hotel used as temporary detention center in Xinhe Town for half a year. In 2001, she was sentenced to two years of forced labor for distributing truth-clarifying materials.

Ms. Guo Jiaohong, born in 1964, is from Xinhe Town, Wenling City, Zhejiang Province. She was detained at Wenling Detention Center for one month for practicing Falun Gong with a group in a park.

Mr. Yu Lixin, born in 1966, is from Nanqian Street, Xinhe Town, Wenling City, Zhejiang Province. At the end of December 1999, he was held in custody for practicing Falun Gong with a group in a park. Then he was transferred to a hotel used as temporary detention center in Xinhe Town for half a year. In January 2001, he went to Beijing to appeal for the rights of Falun Gong and was again taken to the Wenling Detention Center where he went on a hunger strike in protest. Consequently, two directors of the detention center force-fed him. They pried open his teeth with a sharpened bamboo stick. In the process, his mouth was wounded and filled with blood and his face was severely bruised and swollen. Later, he was taken to a hospital. Finally, without informing his family members, officials secretly sent him to Shiliping Forced Labor Camp.
