Ma Fuwei is the head of the Zhangjiakou City "610 Office."* Ma, along with some other officials, have arrested practitioners Ms. Bai Yinglian, Ms. Wang Fengyi, Liu Jianjun, Wang Xiaoming and others. The practitioners have been sentenced to jail and labor camps, where their terms have been extended arbitrarily.

1. The city's "610 Office" is headed by Ma Fuwei and Yan Zhiyou. Ma is the former vice chief of the Qiaodong Police Sub-department. He was promoted to the vice director of Zhangjiakou City Police Department for his "achievement" in persecuting Dafa practitioners. Yan is the chief of the Qiaodong Police Sub-department.

Ma and Yan ignored the law and followed Jiang's orders to take away people's freedom of speech and belief. They have persecuted and tortured Dafa practitioners for the past four years. According to the law, detention centers can only hold people for up to 37 days. In the following 5 cases, the perpetrators illegally abducted the practitioners and then held them in detention centers for extended periods, well past the legal limit. Arbitrary and groundless kidnapping is a serious crime in any country.

2. Director of Shisanli Detention Center Cui Weidong, Director of Xuanhua Detention Center Qin Baozhu, and the guards in the two detention centers worked with Ma Fuwei and Yan Zhiyou in their illegal abduction, detention, and sentencing of practitioners. They illegally detained practitioners like Wang Fengyi (female), Wang Xinyu, Zhang Xiaojun (female), Zheng Meiying (female), Liu Zhaohong (female), Liu Zhaohui, An Liqing, Bai Yinglian (female), Yi Weiping, Wu Zhaolin, Liu Jianjun, Guo Shuying (female), Hu Shuhua (female), and Wang Xiaoming for periods well past the 37-day limit.

On May 9, 2002, Wang was arrested at another practitioner's home. Instructed by Ma Fuwei and Yan Zhiyou, some guards from Qiaodong Police Sub-department abducted Wang and tortured her: they threatened her and tried to extort a confession from her during illegal interrogations, kept her awake for long periods of time, shocked her with electric batons, and tortured her with the "tiger bench" [an instrument of torture in which one is forced to sit on a small iron bench with the knees tightly tied to the bench and hands tied behind the back. Usually some hard objects are inserted underneath the lower legs to make it even harder to bear the pain, see illustration at http://www.clearwisdom.net/emh/articles/2001/11/24/16156.html].

On Dajingmen Street, they were abducted and brought to the Qiaoxi Police Sub-department, where, for over a month, they used all kinds of methods to torture them: shocking with electric batons, hanging them up and beating them, beating them with batons, sleep deprivation, using the "tiger bench," etc. In mid-November, the perpetrators sent the couple to Shisanli Detention Center, where they have been held since.

He was illegally abducted and sent back to Zhangjiakou City by the police guards in Beijing. Yan Zhiyou and Ma Fuwei sent him to Gaoyang Forced Labor Camp in Baoding Area. In the labor camp, the guards forced him to do heavy labor for up to18 hours a day. The persecutors brutally tortured him with all sorts of methods: two of Liu's ribs were broken during the torture, and his fingers became crippled. He has been detained in the labor camp since October 2000.

Their mother was so traumatized she became paralyzed.), Ma Fuwei and some guards from Xinhua Street Police Station illegally abducted her and sent her to Gaoyang Forced Labor Camp in the Baoding Area. At the time, the labor camp refused to take Hu. Ma Fuwei bribed the guards to keep her. Since then, she has been illegally detained in the labor camp.

After her return, Ma Fuwei and Yan Zhiyou illegally held her at Xuanhua Detention Center for 2 years. In 2002, the perpetrators illegally sentenced Wang to 3 years in jail and sent her to Baoding City Women's Prison, where she is still being detained.

There is ample evidence of the crimes committed by Ma Fuwei, Yan Zhiyou, Cui Weidong, Qin Baozhu, and their associates. We hope that the "World Organization to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong" can bring the above criminals to justice. We will bring other lawsuits against the above criminals regarding other crimes committed against other, numerous, Dafa practitioners.
