Mass Arrest Casts Terror on Songyuan City of Jilin Province
(Clearwisdom.net)
News from China - At about 7:00 p.m. on March 5, 2002, righteous people
broadcasted the truth clarifying programs entitled, "Self-Immolation or
Deceit?" and "Falun Dafa Spreads All Over the World" through cable
TV in Songyuan City, Jilin Province. It generated great impact among the public
and effectively deterred the evil. The local government immediately gathered the
police and surrounded the TV station. Afterwards, they held consecutive meetings
to arrange large-scale arrests. Anyone who was known to practice Falun Gong had
his home searched and if Dafa materials were found, the practitioner was
arrested on the spot and would not be released until a written pledge denouncing
Falun Gong was given.
Currently, there are uniform and plainclothes police officers all over the
streets. Some taxi drivers are also recruited to serve as informants. It is said
that the evil forces now focus on the communication systems and particularly
search people with handbags. Right now, many local practitioners are being
arrested. Four more practitioners from out of town have also been arrested. Over
10 practitioners were arrested in one day. The exact number is not clear right
now. We hope practitioners who read this news send forth righteous thoughts to
eliminate the evil.
