Mrs. Li Guipin went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Dafa in 1999. After she was escorted back to Shuangyashan City, the Lixin Police confiscated the 300 Yuan RMB (the average monthly salary of an urban worker is 500 Yuan) she had brought with her and illegally detained her. During the detention, the police guards brutally beat her because she studied Falun Dafa and continued to do the exercises. They held hearings many times, and she was threatened and coerced to give up her belief in Falun Dafa the entire time she was illegally detained. She was finally released twenty days later, after officers from Police Department Jianshan Branch and the Municipal Police Department extorted 8000 Yuan from her. Also, the director with last name Han of Lixin Police Station confiscated two pairs of name brand pants during her detention. A policeman named Zhen from the Municipal Police Department also tried to obtain cigarettes from her family but failed. Her husband's work unit, Baoshan Coal Mine, destroyed his work records and personnel file without notifying him, because they were afraid of being implicated. When her husband inquired about it, the leaders of the company shifted the blame elsewhere, taking no responsibility. However, after another large sum of money was produced, his work records and file were re-established.

On October 26, 1999, Du Xiuqin, a 40-year-old female, went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Dafa. She was detained in the Mineral Bureau Detention Center for fifty-six days after being escorted back from Beijing. During her detention, she was abused and beaten by an instructor, Meng Xiangyou. On July 26, 2000, she went to Beijing again. After being taken back, she was detained in Shuangshan Mineral Bureau Detention Center for fifteen days. After her detention, she was sentenced to one year of forced labor "re-education" in Xigemu Female Forced Labor Camp in Jiamusi City. On September 6, 2001, Song Fengzhi, the Secretary of the Labor Insurance Group in her work unit, along with a policeman, tricked her with a fabricated excuse into going to the detention center, where she was illegally detained for three months.

On December 28, 2001, a widespread search for Falun Dafa practitioners was launched. Ten practitioners in Fuli Village of Shuangyashan City were captured through this illegal search.

In December 1999, Ma Xueru, a 30-year-old female Falun Dafa practitioner from Fuli Village, was illegally sentenced to one year of forced labor "re-education" for going to Beijing to appeal the persecution of Falun Dafa. After her release, she insisted on studying and practicing Falun Gong at home. She was often harassed for no reason. She went to submit a petition, representing Falun Gong practitioners, to the municipal leaders, then to the provincial level, and eventually she went to Beijing. On September 10, 2001, she was illegally detained for three months. To protest her illegal detention, she went on a hunger strike. She wasn't released until her life was in danger due to the extreme effects of the hunger strike. On December 28, 2001, the police failed to abduct her during a widespread search for Falun Dafa practitioners. However, they located her the next day and forcibly took her into custody, detaining her to the present time.

Pan Xingfu, a 28-year-old male, was an employee from the Telecommunications Company in Shuangyashan City. In July 2000, the First Section of the Shuangyashan Police Department forcibly detained him for one month at the Municipal Detention Center. During his detention, the policeman Gao extorted from him 600 Yuan, his beeper, and his cell phone, which was worth 4000 Yuan. In May 2001, he was forcibly abducted in a taxi, and the police again confiscated his laptop and his beeper. The responsible policemen are: Xu Hongkai and Shang Ancheng.

In April 2001, her phone was again monitored for two more months. In 2002, authorities again began monitoring her phone and have continued to monitor it to the present time.

The vicious policemen Zhu Weidong and Li Shouren beat her for more than an hour in order to obtain information about the source of the truth clarifying literature. When they failed to get any information, the police proceeded to torture Qiu by forcing her to do "Body-folding" for over forty minutes (standing with two legs straight and close, and bending the head down as far as it will go toward the feet, in front of the knees. The fingers point to the ground, the head is upside down, making the body to form a 90-degree angle.)
