1. [Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province] Falun Dafa Practitioner Mr. Gao Ke Arrested

Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Gao Ke was reported when clarifying the truth to people. At around 3:00 p.m. on February 28, 2006, police arrested him at his place of employment, the Yumin Elementary School in the Daowai District, Harbin City. Neither the police nor the school notified his family about the arrest. His family didn't know about it until March 3. It's unknown where Gao Ke is being held at the moment. The police are waiting at his home and arrested a woman Dafa practitioner when she visited his home.

2. [Qingdao City, Shandong Province] Qingdao City 610 Office and Judicial Bureau Agents Refuse Falun Gong Practitioner Family's Right to Cosult with An Attorney

The Qingdao City 610 Office and the Judicial Bureau authorities in Shandong Province interfered with a lawyer's case by pressuring the families of Dafa practitioners Sun Hong and Min Huirong to revoke their right to consult with an attorney.

After the arrest of Dafa practitioners Sun Hong and his wife Min Huirong from Qingdao City, police officers from Licang District, Qingdao City blatantly violated Chinese laws by preventing the attorney from meeting with the practitioners after the police received orders from Qingdao City 610 Office. When Min Huirong's parents filed a lawsuit to pursue justice, police from Licang District were frightened and quickly transferred the case to the Licang District Procuratorate.

According to the Criminal Procedure Law of the People's Republic of China and The Legal Code of the People's Republic of China, during the filing of the lawsuit the plaintiffs are entitled to legal assistance and defense, and the lawyer has the right to meet with and defend the plaintiff. No government agency, organization or individual is allowed to interfere with this process. The Qingdao City 610 Office fears that the lawyer would expose its outrageous violations of the law and therefore ordered the Qingdao City Judicial Bureau to pressure the lawyer to refuse to represent the practitioners Sun Hong and Min Huirong in their case.

Dafa practitioners Sun Hong and Min Huirong lived on Zhenhua Road in the Licang District. They drove home from their father's home in the evening of September 21, 2005. Before they got out of the car, officers from the Licang Police Department who had been waiting outside their home approached them. Citing "ID check," they took the couple's ID cards and car keys and then ransacked their home. They took more than 15,000 yuan in cash, and a purse and arrested the couple. These morally depraved officers went back to the home the next day and removed the remaining cash, bank deposit slips and salary cards, totaling over 10,000 yuan. Sun Hong and Min Huirong were held at the Qingdao City Detention Center where they were beaten and tortured by guards Liu Yong and others. The captors tore handfuls of hair off the front of Sun Hong's head. A month later the couple were transferred to the Qingdao City 610 Office Brainwashing Class on No. 34 Mingxia Road in Qingdao City.

3. [Sanhe City, Hebei Province] Zhang Lixin Destroyed a Dafa Materials Production Site

The police broke into Liu Lijun's home and ransacked it. Right now her place of detention is unknown.

7. [Liaoning Province] Four Practitioners Savagely Tortured at the Tieling Forced Labor Camp

The authorities at the Tieling Forced Labor Camp in Liaoning Province block any information and forbid Dafa practitioners' families from visiting them. It wasn't learned until March 5, 2006 that on February 14, 2006 the head of the labor camp conducted an inspection. Four Dafa practitioners - Xiao Guozhi, Liu Zhenguo, Qian Chuanguo and Qin Jingtao refused to wear prison uniforms. The labor camp head ordered guards at Division 5 to cruelly beat the practitioners. Wang Guijun, head of Division 5 and roughneck Su Li shocked the practitioners with electric batons. They inserted electric batons inside the practitioners' mouths.

8. [Liaoning Province] Dafa Practitioner Lin Xiuqin Held Beyond Term at the Masanjia Forced Labor Camp

Prior to April 25, 2005, Dafa practitioner Lin Xiuqin had been on hunger strike for 100 days in an effort to resist the persecution. She is skin and bones and is now being held beyond term at the Masanjia Forced Labor Camp. On January 27, 2006, New Year's Eve [Chinese lunar calendar], Lin Xiuqin and other determined Dafa practitioners wished Teacher a happy New Year. The guards turned over the table, and the practitioners went on another hunger strike. One practitioner was handcuffed and hung from a heating pipe for one-and-a-half days.

9. [Mudanjiang City, Heilongjiang Province] Exposing Cruel Tortures against Dafa Practitioners at the Mudanjiang Prison

On February 22, 2006, Tang Xiaohui, head of Division 8 of the Mudanjiang Prison, political head Chen Zhanfeng, guards Wu Xuejun and Zhang Shengli were monitoring Dafa practitioners around the clock. The practitioners are Huang Guodong, Guan Wenlong, Zhang Shijiang and Xu Xiangdong. The captors forced them to work. They later detained the practitioners in solitary confinement for 24 hours.

Practitioner Huang Guodong was sent to solitary confinement on February 23 and in the evening, inmate Guan Zhenli savagely beat him. On February 24, guard Wu Xuejun and another guard first beat practitioner Liu Jun, and then they dragged practitioner Guan Wenlong to the restroom and assaulted him with electric batons and rubber clubs for over an hour. Inmates later carried Guan Wenlong out. Guan Wenlong's right leg was crippled from the beating. Guard Wu Xuejun followed behind and stabbed Guan Wenlong's back with an awl. They forbade him to eat lunch and again beat him in the restroom. That same day, guard Zhang Shengli hung practitioner Zhang Shijiang from a heating pipe for more than thirty minutes while Zhang Shijiang was tied with a rope. Then the guard dragged Zhang Shijiang into the restroom and he and three other guards shocked him with electric batons until the batons ran out of electricity. They threw him outside in the freezing cold, where he shivered. Inmate Chen Zhonghe begged the guards to let him in, and he had to be carried inside. Right after the guards came to work on February 25, guard Wu Xuejun again stabbed practitioner Guan Wenlong with an awl. Then he dragged Guan Wenlong to the restroom and beat him for more than thirty minutes.

10. [Hebei Province] Atrocities against Dafa Practitioners at the No. 4 Women's Division at the Gaoyang Forced Labor Camp

The No. 4 Women's Division of the Gaoyang Labor Camp is nicknamed "Hebei Province's Masanjia Labor Camp." It is a demon's den where Dafa practitioners are abused and mistreated under the persecution. Because the "reform rate" quota [percentage of Dafa practitioners who renounced their belief after torture and brainwashing] is high, many Dafa practitioners who remained determined at other labor camps were sent here.

In November 2000, a newly arrived Dafa practitioner was shocked with the electric current from a wired radio for about seven hours. She almost lost consciousness and was on the brink of death. The guards overheard her telling of the torture to other practitioners, and guards dragged her away and shocked her with electric batons making her lose consciousness for several hours. She was subsequently locked in a jet-black storage room of torture tools for one week. Her body was covered with electric shock wounds after she returned to the dorm room.

The labor camp also forces Dafa practitioners to do slave labor.

After beating the practitioners, the guards deceive the practitioners with feigned kind words and throw parties, sing, dance and play badminton to create a "warm and relaxed" atmosphere to deceive the media and the public.

In 2001, Jiang's morally bankrupt minions allocated a large sum of money to remodel the Gaoyang Forced Labor Camp. A luxurious four-story building was erected and is used as a showpiece to cover up the inhumane tortures that happen inside. Practitioners Han Junmiao, Ms. Li and her sister, as well as many others have been tortured here until there was no intact skin on their bodies.

11. [Beijing] Zhao Cheng Arrested for Distributing Truth-Clarifying Materials
