Latest News from China - 04/04/2002
(Clearwisdom.net) 1. [Jilin Province] Everyone Working at Jilin Province Government Offices Is
Under Persecution The persecutors in Jilin Province recently started to force everyone working
at provincial government offices to write "guarantee letters,"
including people who do not practice Falun Gong. The persecutors require
everyone to guarantee (for themselves and their family members) that they will
not cultivate or believe in Dafa. It is believed that the perpetrators in Changchun will probably put some of
the arrested Dafa practitioners on trial. In Luyuan District alone, the
perpetrators plan to press charges against 10 practitioners and sentence them to
prison or forced labor camps. The police at Qingming Street Police Station (Chief: Wang Wei) in Nanguan
District have arrested over 200 practitioners in the past month. Recently, the Intermediate People's Court illegally tried some practitioners.
The persecutors arrested more than 30 practitioners when they went to the court
to clarify the truth. 2. [Bozhou City, Anhui Province] Seven Dafa Practitioners Have Been on a
Hunger Strike for 12 Days There are a total of 9 practitioners illegally detained at Qiliqiao Detention
Center in Bozhou City, Anhui Province. Among them, 7 female practitioners went
on a hunger strike on March 24, 2002, in protest. They have been fasting for
over 12 days. The 7 practitioners include: Liang Minglan, Shi Shuzhen, Zhou Li.
Names of the other 4 practitioners are still unknown. We urgently call for the
attention of international society. 3. [Northeast China] Jiang's Regime Exhausts Manpower And Financial Resources
to Arrest Dafa Practitioners in Liaoning And Jilin Province The recent great deed of clarifying the truth to people using the cable TV
network in Changchun shocked Jiang. Being very scared, he began enforcing even
worse measures against the practitioners. The persecutors have exhausted
manpower and resources by dispatching police from Jilin Province to Liaoning
Province to arrest the practitioners who left their homes to avoid the
persecution. In one case, the perpetrators illegally detained the family members
of a practitioner for 7 hours trying to extort information about the
practitioner all the while. The police also kept harassing the family members
and relatives of practitioners, and lied to them by saying that they were from
the local community offices. The practitioners saw through their tricks and did
not cooperate with them. Affected by the powerful righteous thoughts of the
practitioners, the police left without accomplishing anything. 4. [Lingyuan City, Liaoning Province] Female Practitioner Zhang Yali Has Been
Illegally Detained for 8 Months Zhang Yali is a retired worker of Lingyuan Steel Cooperative. Because Zhang
firmly cultivates Dafa, the Public Security Division of Lingyuan Steel
Cooperative illegally arrested her on July 30, 2001 from her home. The
persecutors transferred her to Mohudian Police Station, and then to the No. 1
Detention Center of Lingyuan City. After being held there for several months,
Zhang was transferred to the No. 2 Detention Center of Lingyuan City, where she
is still being held. The police did not press any charges against Zhang Yali;
yet she has been detained for 8 months. 5. [Chengdu City, Sichuan Province] The Police Rampantly Abduct Practitioners The Chengdu City Police launched a large-scale abduction of practitioners on
the nights of February 2 through 4. They put the practitioners in several
newly-built prisons like Pixian Prison and Pujiang Prison. The practitioners
have not been released yet. The worst case is the wicked police from Wuhou Police Station breaking into
and ransacking some practitioner's homes, and abducting the following people: 1. Fang Hui (an instructor at Sichuan University) 2. Wang Haibo (a Ph D
Student at Sichuan University) 3. Cui Yongchang (a professor at Sichuan
University) 4. Ni Yuehua. The following practitioners were also illegally
arrested or kidnapped: 5. Li Yuanzhen (an associate professor at the Traditional
Chinese Medicine University of Chengdu) 6. Zhu Xuezhi (a senior engineer at
Hydro-electricity Design Institute) 7. Li Bingnan (a senior engineer) 8. Li
Zhijie (a manager at Chengdu Seamless Steel Tube Plant) 9. Luo Suyun 10. Lai
Suqing. Dozens more were also arrested. The perpetrators' "reason" for
arresting these practitioners was because the practitioners firmly cultivate
Dafa. We call for all the kind people of the world to help stop the crimes and help
get the illegally detained practitioners released. 6. [Deyang City, Sichuan Province] The Mengjia Town Government Illegally
Detains Practitioners And Extorts Money From Them Right before the Spring Festival of 2002, some government officials of
Mengjia Town (Jingyang District, Deyang City) actively participated in
persecuting Dafa practitioners in order to secure their positions. Under
pressure from their superiors and the local "610" Office [Note: The
"610 Office" is an agency specifically created to persecute Falun
Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all
other political and judiciary systems], the perpetrators detained all the
practitioners in the town at a brainwashing class. Over 40 practitioners were
arrested. There are still 9 practitioners under detention at the town's glass
plant. The town government officials inhumanly tortured the practitioners and tried
to extort money from their family members. The poor family members could not
afford the 5,000 Yuan [The average monthly salary of an urban worker in China
is about 500 Yuan, 200 Yuan for a rural worker.] "bail," yet an
official said viciously, "It is easy to get money from the practitioners,
just press them hard." Another official also said, "We should be paid
for the extra work of detaining you." The practitioners under detention think that they should not cooperate with
the evil persecution whether they have money or not. Ten more practitioners have
been detained since the end of last year. They are: Jiang Yan, Jian Yicong,
Jiang Qixing, Zhou Yuzhen, Wu Jihua, Wang Mingyou, Ding Quanzhen, He Jikang,
Huang Qianfang, and He Yunan. Mengjia Town Party Secretary Liu Xingde: (Home) 86-838-2509798, (cell) Mengjia Town Mayor Xie Yulong: (cell) 86-13781000328 7. [Hegang City, Heilongjiang Province] Wicked Police Arrest Dafa
Practitioner Li Xiuqin, Ignoring the Desperate Situation of Her Family Members Right before the 2002 Spring Festival, some local government officials and
the police station in Shuyuan Town (Hegang City, Heilongjiang Province)
relentlessly arrested Dafa practitioners day and night in order to get a bonus
from Jiang. For sending out two letters that clarified the truth of Dafa during the time
of the Spring Festival in 2001, practitioner Li Xiuqin (female, around 60) lost
10,000 Yuan through extortion and was pressured to write a "guarantee
letter." Because she refused to cooperate with the persecution, Li was
forced to become homeless to avoid further persecution. Li's father is almost
80. Seeing that his 60-year-old daughter could not even come home for the Spring
Festival, the old man was very worried and became sick. On New Year's Eve
(Chinese new year), Li's father started passing blood in his stool. On December 31, some police from Shuyuan Town Police Station found Li Xiuqin
while she was visiting a friend. Although they were not sure of Li's identity,
the police threw Li into the No.2 Detention Center (of Hegang City). Inside the
detention center, the guards did not allow Li to practice the movements,
brutally tortured her with instruments, and put her in handcuffs and shackles.
Li went on a hunger strike to protest; so the perpetrators forcefully fed her.
During this time, Li suffered many heart attacks and she was sent to the
hospital emergency room for treatment. Even while she was in the hospital,
Shuyuan Town Police Station and Dongshan Police Sub-department had three guards
watching her 24 hours a day. On January 20, 2002, Li escaped from the hospital with help from Teacher and
her strong righteous thoughts. Knowing that Li would likely go home to see her
old father, the police lived in the old man's home for 6 days during the 2002
Spring Festival. During that time, they hid near the home of Li's father around
the clock, ignoring the worries and the desperate situation of the old man. The
police also searched for Li in the homes of her relatives and students. Responsible units: Hegang City Security Department: 86-468-3348491 No. 2 Detention Center of Hegang City: 86-468-3400001 Dongshan Police Sub-department: 86-468-3567777 Shuyuan Town Police Station: 86-468-3431587 Shuyuan Town Government: 86-468-3422395 8. [Hegang City, Heilongjiang Province] Police from Nanshan Police
Sub-department Beat a 60-Year-Old Woman Around noon on March 27, 2002, 10 police guards from Nanshan Police
Sub-department Broke into the home of Dafa practitioner Cui Jinlan (female,
around 60). Headed by officer Yang Fengyou, the perpetrators pulled Cui's hair
and slapped her face while trying to take her away (Cui was sending forth
righteous thoughts, sitting on her bed). Cui's husband stepped forward and
argued with them, which made Yang act even wilder. He beat and cursed like
crazy. While Cui was shouting "Falun Dafa is indeed good," Yang led
the other perpetrators to throw her into a police car, while pulling her hair
and beating her at the same time. The perpetrators then illegally ransacked
Cui's home, then they arrested Cui's husband. At Nanshan Police Sub-department,
the perpetrators interrogated the old couple and tortured them until after 10
PM. Using a detention warrant without Cui's signature, they sent her to the No.
2 Detention Center of Hegang City. Cui's husband was released so that he could
take care of his teenage granddaughter, who had been left home by herself. On March 25, 2002, female practitioner Tian Guiying and Wang Shuqing were
also arrested while distributing truth-clarifying materials. The perpetrators
illegally ransacked their homes and detained them at the No. 2 Detention Center
of Hegang City. 9. [Wenjiang County, Sichuan Province] The Police Force Normal People into
Psychiatric Hospitals The 48-year-old female Dafa practitioner Yang Chongyu was an officer at the
Property Tax Department of Wenjiang County. Yang went to Beijing to validate
Dafa in October 2001. The perpetrators arrested her, sent her back, and detained
her for about a month. Yang was then transferred to a psychiatric hospital in
Wanchun Town, Wenjiang County, where persecutors gave her medicine by force and
injected her with many kinds of tranquilizers. Two practitioners from Wenjiang
County went to visit Yang Chongyu in the hospital, and they saw an instrument
that can force people to sleep. Every night, the nurses only have to push the
instrument against the top of the patients' heads three times to make them go to
sleep. For Yang, the instrument has to be used over 10 times before she feels
sleepy. The instrument acutely stimulates one's nervous system, and using it on
people is inhuman. Besides the local police, Li Liang, the Director of the
Wenjiang County Property Tax Department, also participated in the persecution of
Yang. When Yang's husband Lu Baoyu went to visit her at the hospital, Li Liang
said to Yang, "if you write a guarantee of 'not practicing,' we will
immediately send you back home." Zeng Yunxiu, the head of the psychiatric
hospital, also participated in persecuting Yang Chongyu. The "610" Office of Wenjiang County: 86-815-2722610 Wenjiang County Detention Center: 86-815-2722330 10. [Chengdu City, Sichuan Province] The Persecution Of Practitioner Li
Zhijie Li Zhijie is a female practitioner, 58 years old. She is a retired official
from the Chengdu City Seamless Steel Tube Plant. Li has been practicing Falun
Gong since 1997. In November and December 1999, Li Zhijie went to Beijing to appeal for Falun
Gong. The police illegally arrested her and detained her for 60 days before they
sentenced her to 1 year in a forced labor camp (her term was served outside the
labor camp). Around midnight on February 2, 6 people from Niushikou Police Station
(Jinjiang District Police Sub-department, Chengdu City) and Niushikou Community
Office deceived Li's daughter into opening the door and arrested Li from her
bed. They put Li into Chengdu City Detention Center, where she was detained for
30 days. On the day she was to be released, the perpetrators transferred her to
another detention center in the city and held her for 15 days. Jin Mingzhe, head of Jinjiang District Police Sub-department, Chengdu City: Niushikou Police Station: Chief Chen: 86-28-4527031, Police guard Dong Keqin: 11. [Sichuan Province] Some Facts about the Persecution of Dafa Practitioners
and the Responsible Units The whole family of Zhong Fangqiong practices Falun Gong. Zhong has been
illegally detained 14 times and sent to a forced labor camp for 15 months. Right
now, Zhong's freedom is still restricted. Responsible units: The local police station: 86-28-4457853 (Note: The best calling time for this
number is Fridays, since the Chiefs are on duty on Fridays.) The Political and Judiciary Committee of Chenghua District, Chengdu City: Practitioner Zheng Youmei's family are also all practitioners. The
perpetrators detained Zheng many times before illegally sentencing her to 2
years in a forced labor camp. Recently, the perpetrators forced Zheng into the
brainwashing classes in Wuhou District, Chengdu City. Zheng has been on a hunger
strike for 20 days or so; the perpetrators have transferred her to a hospital,
where she has been force-fed. Female practitioner Liu Jian was a teacher at the No. 13 Middle School of
Chengdu City. The police illegally arrested Liu on February 10, 2002 at a
farmer's market, and she is still under detention now. Responsible units: Jinyang Police Station: 86-28-7428110 (Chief Liu, and Zeng Fengming) Wuhou District Political and Judiciary Committee: 86-28-5557275 12. [Baicheng, Jilin Province] The Local "610" Office Deceives The
Public And Rampantly Arrested Practitioners Recently, the perpetrators in Baicheng region started another round of
persecuting Dafa practitioners under the direction of Baicheng "610"
Office. They wanted to sentence the practitioners arrested "heavily and
quickly." It is said that the round of arrests will last until June 10. By
now, many truth-clarifying material sites have been destroyed and many
practitioners have been arrested. The massive search for practitioners is still
going on: the police are hiding near all the Internet cafes, residential
buildings, and streets. The "610" Office also slanders Falun Gong and deceives people,
putting hatred of Falun Gong into the minds of many people. We hope that all the practitioners who see this message will be careful and
eliminate the evil with righteous thoughts. Pan Wei, Director of "610" Office in Baicheng Area: 86-436-3225074
ext. 3220 (Office) 13. [Fengtai, Beijing] Practitioner Zhao Guiying Has Been Detained For 8
Months There was an article on Clearwisdom.net (Chinese) about female practitioner
Zhao Guiying's arrest on July 19, 2001. It has been 8 months since then, and we
don't know whether she is still alive. Some said that Zhao refused to cooperate
with the evil. No one was allowed to visit her, and knows where she is being
held. Zhao Guiying's mother is over 80 and needs someone to take care of her. We
hope that all practitioners who see this message will send forth righteous
thoughts and help to get Zhao released. 14. [Hainan Province] The Wicked Deeds of Perpetrators in Hainan Province
Forced Labor Camps and Qiongshan City Police Department The practitioners in Hainan Province Forced Labor Camps are under tremendous
persecution. Some labor camps have changed their methods of persecution. Now
they order the other inmates to torture the practitioners. In Hainan Province
Female Forced Labor Camp, headman Zhou Hui beat practitioners Wu Guoyu, Lin
Hongping, and Wu Shuping until they were half-dead. The three practitioners were
then transferred to a detention center to "rest" before they were
taken back for another round of torture. The director of Qiongshan City
"610" Office teamed up with He Tingxiong (Vice Chief of Qiongshan City
Police Department) in persecuting the local practitioners. Guard Zeng Chong at a
forced labor camp forces all visitors to curse Teacher and Dafa. In Qiongshan City, He Tingxiong, Wang Pijie, and Zhou Bingmin were ordered to
arrest practitioner couple Sun Yingqin and Shi Jinyu. Sun's parents (68-year-old
Sun Gaohong and his wife) and teenage son were left at home in despair. The
perpetrators also arrested Yuan Xiuli and Sun Huifen (couple), leaving their old
mother and two young girls (primary school students) in a desperate situation. 15. [Haikou City, Hainan Province] The Police Illegally Ransacked A
Practitioner's Home On the evening of March 5, 2002, the police illegally arrested practitioner
Cai Aiqiong and ransacked her home. On March 7, three other practitioners were
arrested. A few days after that, the police searched the home of practitioner
Cen Yucheng's parents and took away two pictures of Cen Yucheng. We hope that
Cen can be informed of the potential danger. A practitioner's colleague told us that the police often ransack the
practitioner's home. On the night of March 8, 10 police guards pounded on the
door again. When they saw no one opening the door, the police walked to the back
of the house and pried the window open. The incident had a big impact on the
people at the practitioner's work unit. People were surprised to see the police
acting like common robbers, and violating the law. The police guards that pried open the window include Lin Youmei and Chen Li
from Chengxi Police Station in Haikou City. 16. [Haikou City, Hainan Province] A Dafa Banner Was Hung On A Crossing
Bridge; Police Arrested over 20 Practitioners According to inside news from Haikou City Police Department, a Dafa banner
was hung on a crossing bridge. The police imposed martial law on the whole city
and arrested more than 20 practitioners. 17.
