1. [Luohe City, Henan Province] A Dafa Practitioner Wins Defamation Case Over an Untrue Report

At the end of 2000, Dafa practitioner Ms. Chen Xiaowen from Luohe City, Henan Province went to Beijing to validate Dafa and was later detained. During her detention, an in-house magazine issued by Luohe City's Shuanghui Corporation published an untrue report about Chen Xiaowen. This report defamed Falun Dafa and incited hatred in the public against Dafa. In order to rectify the situation and restore Falun Dafa's reputation, Ms. Chen Xiaowen brought the Shuanghui Corporation Magazine's Editing Department before the court at the end of 2003. In February 2004, the court ruled in Ms. Chen Xiaowen's favor. After several internal debates, the verdict ordered the Shuanghui Editing Department and the responsible person to apologize to Chen Xiaowen and compensate her.

2. [Anshan City, Liaoning Province] Dafa Practitioner Jia Songtao is Sentenced to Five Years Imprisonment and Suffers from Excruciating Tortures

In December 2002, Dafa practitioner Mr. Jia Songtao from Anshan Steel Company's Semi Tandem Rolling Factory clarified the truth to his co-workers and sent someone a New Year's card. A coworker then reported him to police. The people in charge of the Semi Tandem Rolling Factory were ambitious in receiving political favors and promotions by persecuting Falun Gong. They collaborated with the city's police department and had Dafa practitioner Jia Songtao secretly arrested. They tortured him, ransacked his home and detained him for eight months, only because they found some Dafa materials at his place. Jia Songtao refused to give up his belief and resisted their persecution. He was thus beaten so badly that two of his ribs were broken. The police didn't provide him with any medical treatment and claimed, "He won't die from it." In December 2003, Jia Sontao was unlawfully sentenced to five years imprisonment. At present he is being held in Dalian City's Prison.

3. [Beijing] Doctoral Candidate Zheng Xujun from the China Electric Power Research Institute Becomes an "Illegal Resident" After his Release

Mr. Zheng Xujun, a Ph.D. candidate from the China Electric Power Research Institute, is a Falun Gong practitioner from Beijing. He was sentenced to forced labor only because he practices Falun Gong. In December 2003, after Zheng Xujun was released from the Tuanhe Forced Labor Camp in Beijing, the officials at the Institute refused to accept him. Three years ago, the officials from the China Electric Power Research Institute expelled Falun Gong practitioner Zheng Xujun. They even secretly transferred Zheng's household registration out of the Institute. As they didn't follow normal procedures, Zheng Xujun's household registration became invalid and he has become an "illegal resident." Zheng Xujun is presently in a very difficult situation. No one in China can apply for an ID card without a household registration, and because he cannot obtain ID, Zheng Xujun can't find employment.

This is another typical case of Jiang's persecution policy against Falun Gong practitioners in which he has directed, "Defame their reputations, bankrupt them financially, and destroy them physically."

4. [Chaoyang City, Liaoning Province] Dafa Practitioner Liu Xiufen Suffers Repeated Persecution for Persisting in Her Belief

In 1999, she was sentenced to one year of forced labor in Liaoning Province's Masanjia Forced Labor Camp, only because she refused to give up her belief in Falun Dafa. Liu Xiufen again refused to give up her belief in the camp and had her term extended for one more year. One month after her release in 2001, police again came to her house to harass her. As Liu persisted in her belief, the Masanjia Forced Labor Camp again extended her term by three months. On January 17, 2003, when Liu Xiufen was released, she went to Beijing to validate the Fa and clarify the truth to the public. The authorities again seized her and took her back to Chaoyang City.

Wu Xuesheng, 36 years old, lives in the Fangyuan Residential Area of the Dongling District. On December 4, 2003, he was sent to the Masanjia Forced Labor Camp. Because Wu's blood pressure was only 60/40 mmHg, the prison officials were afraid to take responsibility and sent him back home.

At 4:00 p.m. on January 7, 2004, five policemen from Dongling District's Lingyun Police Precinct first went to see whether or not Wu Xuesheng was home.

Wu Xuesheng said, "I did not violate the law and my practice of Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance is not wrong. I will not eat any food meant for criminals."
