Facts of the Persecution
1. On April 21, 2004 Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Li Mingyan from Huludao City, Liaoning Province made a phone call from a public phone booth. Apparently, the call was monitored for Falun Dafa content, because she was abducted by a group of approximately 8 policemen shortly after she ended the call. They took her to the State Security Ward and later transferred her to the Jinjiao Township Police Substation in Lianshan District.
She was then transferred to the Masanjia Labor camp the next day to serve a three year sentence. Her blood pressure became abnormal, after she went on a hunger strike for 13 days without food or water. Upon examination, the camp doctor discovered that she had gallstones. The Labor Camp Administration forced her family to pay a 5000 yuan "security deposit," before releasing her for a month's "vacation" to receive medical treatment.
2. In July 2003, Ms. Ren Liyun and two other practitioners were sent to the Laodaohe Brainwashing Center in Changsha City. After one week, they were transferred to the Furong District Brainwashing Class. On March 8, 2004, Ms. Ren was returned to the Laodaohe Brainwashing Center to repeat the class.
3. On May 9, 2004, a practitioner, Ms. Ma Xiane from Changsha City, Hunan Province, was abducted by the police. Her whereabouts are currently unknown. She works for the Huoxing Town government, Furong District, Changsha City, and lives in Yangjiashan, Changsha City.
4. In 2001, Falun Dafa practitioners, Mr. Geng Jicai and his wife, Wang Minxue, from Xinzhuang Village, Zhangduangu Township, Wuji County, Hebai Province, left their home to avoid arrest. On March 22, 2004, they returned home secretly, but were reported to the Town Police Station Director, Ge Jianqiang. He abducted and held them in the Wuji County Detention Center.
5. Recently, police in Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province, together with "610 Office" personnel, arrested several practitioners. Mr. Lin Rongtong (in his 50's) was abducted from his home and sent to the Sanshui Labor Camp Brainwashing Class. Another practitioner, a medical doctor, was also arrested.
