Another Round of Persecution Around July 20th Around July 20th, authorities in Shenyang City carried out
another large-scale round of persecution against Falun Gong practitioners. Their
means included harassing "registered" practitioners at their homes and
collecting practitioners' handwriting samples with all kinds of excuses. [Beijing] Dafa Practitioners' Proposal Since April, some Dafa practitioners in Beijing have been
joining a group Fa-rectification activity of sending righteous thoughts each
night to eliminate the evil factors in the Beijing area. Recently, at least two
practitioners from Beijing have been tortured to death. Thus, we ask all Dafa
practitioners in Beijing to please circulate the news: Let's continue to send
righteous thoughts at 9:00 p.m. every night to completely eliminate the evil
factors in Beijing area. [Shenyang City, Liaoning Province] Abduction of Dafa

gone missing and being abducted have successively occurred in several areas in
China. In the Xinmin District, Shenyang City, Dafa practitioners including Ms.
Liu Yueqiu and Ms. Cao Deyan were abducted. Practitioner Pei Yunfeng is missing. [Yi County, Hebei Province] Arrest of Practitioners Xu Xiuyan, Zhao Jinfeng,
and Wei Xiuling On May 18, police from Yi County together with other local
officials arrested practitioners Ms. Xu Xiuyan from Xiwei Village in Tanghu
Town, Yi County, Ms. Zhao Jinfeng and Ms. Wei Xiuling from Peishan Town, and Ms.
Li Wenfeng from Xishanbei Township. Since July 20, 1999, when the sensitive days* were
approaching, police from Yi County and personnel from local government would
persecute those practitioners whom they consider determined. They held
practitioners at detention centers or local government offices to abuse and
maltreat them, and forced them to give up their belief in
"Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance." In Xishanbei Township alone, four
practitioners have been forced to leave home and go from place to place to avoid
the persecution. Since July 20, 1999, the local government extorted at least
100 Yuan**, or up to several thousand Yuan, from all practitioners, even those
who had just learned the exercises the two days previously. Some practitioners'
homes have been ransacked and destroyed. Local citizens said these deeds were
worse than what had been done by bandits. Phone numbers: Yi County's Police
