Detention Center and "610 Office" (2) 1. The First Detention Center of Chenzhou City, Hunan Province, also called
the Luosiling Detention Center, detained over 300 Dafa practitioners between

practitioners were from every city and county within or without the Chenzhou
Prefecture. Some of them were detained for over two years. Practitioners were
persecuted to death at this center, including Mr. Deng Guojun. The Second Detention Center of Chenzhou City, also called Tiziling Detention
Center, detained over 100 practitioners between July 20, 1999 and July 3, 2004.
Most of the practitioners detained there were not residents of the town. They
suffered inhuman persecution and cruel torture. One practitioner said, "The
guards ordered the criminals to torture Dafa practitioners. If they refused, the
guards beat the criminal in charge of the cell. I was detained there for a while
and told the inmates the truth. The head criminal no longer wished to
participated, but he was afraid of being beaten by the guards. So he came up
with the idea to hit the wall with shoes, while someone pretended to shout in
pain." The guards enjoyed hearing people's painful shouting. It was like
music to their ears. If they did not hear such crying, they would brutally
torture the inmate. 2. The Chenzhou City "610 Office" forced every work unit to
increase the monitoring of Dafa practitioners. They wanted to further persecute
Dafa practitioners. If practitioners wanted to go out in the evening, the work
unit had to inform the "610 Office." Besides people patrolling on the
streets, there were also people watching at given spots. They also arrested
practitioners, including Mr. Li Hui, without legal grounds. Thanks to truth
clarification, Mr. Li Hui's family and relatives already understood that Mr. Li
Hui committed no crimes and they planned to go through legal channels to fight
this injustice. Although they talked to many attorneys, none dared take his
case. The lawyers all said, "This is a sensitive issue. We don't dare to
take it." "If I help you with this case, I will have to tell the
truth. Then I would lose my job." 6. [Shuangcheng City, Heilongjiang Province] Shuangcheng City Government

Trample Falun Gong Practitioners' Human Rights On July 7, 2004, the Communist Party Chief of Zhucaoying Township and

orders that the two police station staff arrest Dafa practitioners Mr. Du Huijie
and Mr. Chen Lixin. Given Mr. Chen's family's efforts, Mr. Chen Lixin was not
arrested, but he was forced to become homeless to avoid further persecution. Mr. Du Huijie was sent to the brainwashing center in Funing County. The
excuse used to abduct Mr. Du was absurd, as it was close to July 20 (3). Before

confiscated Dafa books. It was a violation of the law and caused people to
