According to a Chinese Clearwisdom report on February 4, another 5 Falun Gong practitioners from the three provinces of Northeast China have been persecuted to death.

Furthermore, according to a Chinese Clearwisdom report on February 3, Falun Dafa practitioners in Shahe City of Hebei Province had successfully used TV to broadcast Falun Dafa truth-clarifying video during the Chinese New Year. It has caused a strong echo in Shahe area while it also caused extreme panic among evils. It is said that the Ministry of Public Security had dispatched personnel right away to Xingtai to direct the persecution. Under a harsh order from high above, the Shahe City police launched a desperate search and arrest of Falun Gong practitioners. We have learned that 9 Falun Gong practitioners have been abducted, many practitioners' homes have been ransacked with properties and books taken away illegally. All practitioners in Shahe are now illegally under police surveillance, interrogation, and they are also forced to sign forms denouncing Falun Gong.

On February 10, Peng Guangjun was persecuted to death. He was 55, a resident of Houchaozi Village of Huairong District in Beijing. Since July 20, 1999, he had been arrested, sent to forced brainwashing sessions or detained for many times. His last arrest came on September 28, 2003. On January 26, 2004, authorities informed his family members that Peng had died. When Peng's body was to be cremated, some took the opportunity to check his body and found his head and body had black gores, his face had scars burned by electric batons, and the bones of his limbs were broken.

On January 19, Xinhua Public Security Subdivision of Shijiazhuang City abducted Falun Dafa practitioner Yu Jingxia. Since then, she has been on a hunger strike. To date, she has been on hunger strike for more than 20 days. Because of torture by police, she is now as thin as a lath with swollen legs and she can't walk. She also has severe waist problems and her entrails have been injured in many parts. She is now in a very critical condition. Another male practitioner in his 30s who was arrested with her also subjected to severe torture.

Houston Falun Gong practitioners request the Chinese Government to bring the following individuals to justice:

Jiang Zemin: Chairman of Communist Party Military Committee, Former Secretary General of Communist Party's Central Committee, Former President of China

Luo Gan: Member of Standing Committee of Political Bureau of Communist Party, Secretary of Political and Legal Committee of Communist Party

Liu Jing: Deputy Minister of Public Security Department, Deputy Director of "610 Office"

Zhou Yongkang: Minister of Public Security Department

They are the ones who have plotted the persecution and given orders to local officials to escalate persecution against practitioners.

At the same time, practitioners also called on all kind-hearted people from all walks of life to jointly resist and expose the crimes against practitioners.
