Unlawfully Sentenced to Prison
Mr. Fu Wensheng was unlawfully arrested while posting truth clarifying
materials. Yu Bin is the person who called the police. Mr. Fu is currently being
unlawfully held in the Gaizhou City Detention Center. Before being transferred
to the detention center, Mr. Yu refused to cooperate with the evil forces and
police officer Li Decai viciously beat him. On the morning of June 26, the
Gaizhou City Court held a secret trial without notifying Mr. Fu's family. The
expected prison term for him is between four to six years.
Judge: Wen Lihua. Juror: Jiang Linma, whose mobile number is 86-13840713997.

Wife Sentenced to Two Years; Wu Zilong Receives Twelve-year Sentence
Falun Dafa practitioners Mr. Li Huaiming and Mr. Liu Haixiao are from
Shuangyang District, Changchun City, Jilin Province. Each of them has been
unlawfully sentenced to sixteen years in prison. Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Wu
Zilong has been unlawfully sentenced to twelve years in prison. Mr. Liu's wife
was unlawfully sentenced to two years in prison for offering help to Falun Dafa
practitioners. All of them are being held in the No. 3 Detention Center
affiliated with the Changchun Police Department, located north of Sheling
Township, Shuangyang District.
When the trials were held, no family members of Falun Dafa practitioners were
allowed to attend. Falun Dafa practitioners shouted, "Falun Dafa is good" and "Falun
Dafa is the righteous law." At 9:00 a.m. on June 18, when the judge issued the
sentence, the police gagged Falun Dafa practitioners and put masks on them. The
court came up with all sorts of excuses to prevent practitioners' family members
from attending the trial. During their more than one year of detention, the
police had also denied any visits from family members. The cash in
practitioners' pockets was taken away and designated as "funds for activities."
All of the Falun Dafa practitioners above have filed an appeal, refusing to
acknowledge the unlawful sentencing.

of the Police Department plans to unlawfully sentence Ms. Guo and Ms. Xue to

sentencing has been submitted to the Linghe Police Department in Jinzhou City,

Changchun City, to validate Falun Dafa. She was unlawfully arrested and later
released. Members of the local police station, neighborhood administration
office, and the Longtan District "610 Office" have since constantly harassed her
without cause.
To further validate Falun Dafa and clarify the truth about Falun Gong to the
public, Ms. Jin went to Beijing on April 1, 2002. She has been missing ever

County. They were unlawfully detained on criminal charges. They are currently
being held at the Xingning Detention Center.
Ms. Zeng Yuefang, around 30 years old, started practicing Falun Dafa at the
end of 1995. She was physically weak since her childhood and was known among the
local population for her numerous illnesses. Her parents had spent all of the
family's savings on her medical treatment, to no avail. As her condition got
worse, doctors told her to quit all treatment and to go back home and leave her
life in the hands of fate. Early in 1995, she was fortunate to encounter Falun
Dafa. The immense principles of the Fa and the compassionate benevolence of
Teacher have taught her how to be a good person and restored her health as well.
She has told others that it is Falun Dafa that has granted her a second life.

Falun Dafa practitioners in a city in northeast China placed banners all over
the highest mountain on the evening of June 2 (the eve of the Dragon Boat

following tradition, were out in the mountains, they awakened to see everywhere
banners saying, "Falun Dafa is Good," "Falun Dafa is the Righteous Law," and
"Truthfulness-Benevolence-Forbearance."
