--Falun Dafa practitioner, Mr. Yang Zhu was tortured in the Xinhua Labor Camp in Sichuan Province. He had poliomyelitis when he was little, and he is very thin and small in size. Police forced him to work around a brick kiln, pull heavy carts, work in the hot kiln, and so on. Under both physical and mental torture, Yang Zhu's limbs sometimes become paralyzed, to the point where he can not even take care of himself on a day to day basis.

--Police in No.4 Prison in the northern suburbs of Shijiazhuang City use many torture methods to try to force Falun Dafa practitioners to give up their faith, such as beating up practitioners, handcuffing them, putting ankle shackles on them, depriving them of sleep, punishing them with long periods of standing, forcing them to sit on small stools for long periods, etc. Mr. Yang Xiaojie, a Falun Dafa practitioner, was sent from No.2 Prison to the No.4 Prison in July 2003. From October to December, police took turns using all the above torture methods on him, and made him feel that living was even worse than dying.

The villains tortured two Falun Dafa practitioners, Mr. Sun and Mr. Min, each for three hours. The villains also beat up Mr. Wei Yongchun until his head was bleeding, and he was vomiting blood. After this beating, his mouth was too severely swollen to eat for more than 15 days.

--The following deeds were committed by police from the Ziqiang Substation, under the Daqing City Longfeng Station in Heilongjiang Province: police officer Wang Zemin (male) often called or knocked on the doors of Falun Dafa practitioners to harass them. He bribed residential building janitors to keep an eye on Falun Dafa practitioners, and withhold practitioners' personal IDs. Director Qin Xiaodong (male) was very rough when dealing with arrested Dafa practitioners, and extorted 10,000 yuan from each of ten Falun Dafa practitioners' families [500 yuan in the average monthly income for an urban Chinese worker]. Director Sun Hengli slandered the Master of Falun Dafa, arrested 10 Dafa practitioners who were exercising in front of a store in February 2000, and sent them to detention centers.

On January 5, 2004, police from the Erdaobaihe Station in Antu County, Yanbian Automonous District, Jilin Province stormed into Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Fan Zemei's home in Tongyang Village, Yongqing Township.

In August, 1999, two journalists from Langfang City News came to Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Cao Wenxia's home. Ms. Cao told them that she was had a lot of health problems before practicing Falun Dafa, and there was a lot of tension between her and her mother-in-law. After practicing Falun Dafa, her health problems went away, and her family became peaceful. After several days, the newspaper posted the article. Ms. Cao was very shocked when she read it, because the reporters had turned the truth inside out and printed lies. It said, "Ms. Cao had no health problems before, but had more health problems after practicing. She had a good relationship with her mother-in-law before, but could not get along with her mother-in-law after practicing." "She will never practice Falun Gong again." Ms. Cao was so angry upon seeing such a fallacious article. She could not believe how these journalists and our country's newspaper could turn black into white, and deceive the general public like this!
