Recognition Zhou Yaping, a Falun Dafa practitioner from Shuangliu County of Sichuan
Province was arrested on December 28, 2005. He has been tortured and brutalized
so much that he is beyond recognition. He is still detained. The police who have taken part in the persecution: The Police Station of Shuangliu County: 86-28-85822651 Dafa practitioner Zhang Xiuling is now detained in the No. 4 Team of Heizuizi
Women's Forced Labor Camp which is located in Changchun, Jilin Province. She is
on a hunger strike to protest the unlawful detention. Ms. Liu Zhiwei , a guard
from the Education Department, kicked Ms. Zhang Xiuling down the staircase. Ms.
Zhang Xiuling's leg was injured and she is unable to walk properly. Telephone numbers of Education Department guards: 86-431-8983380, 86-431-8961487 Mr. Lin Shusen, a Dafa practitioner from Beijing, was illegally
arrested in May last year by the police from west city district of
Beijing. He has been on a hunger strike for more than a month. On January 6,
2006, his family received a phone call from a lawyer who has been designated for
his case. The lawyer told them that the trial would begin on January 11, and the
family members of Mr. Lin could attend. Mr. Lin's mother and sister (both Dafa
practitioners) went to the court on that day, but were told that Mr. Lin was
extremely weak and in a hospital, due to his extended hunger strike. Therefore,
there was no trial and they could not see Mr. Lin. His mother has been going to
the police station every day, asking them to release him. Every time she goes,
they dismiss her with the excuse that their supervisors are not available. Mr. Lu Shulin, a practitioner from Yushu of Jilin Province is being detained
at the No. 2 Prison of Jilin Province. Currently his blood pressure is
abnormally high. Sometimes Mr. Lu feels violently sick and vomits. His heartbeat
exceeds the normal standard and there is almost no feeling on his left side. In
January of 2006, the Railroad Hospital examined him. The diagnosis showed that
his blood pressure is extremely high and he is on the verge of having cerebral
hemorrhage at any time. On January 16, 2006, when Lu Shulin's mother received the news that her son's
life was in danger, she went to the prison to ask them for his release. The
Education Head of the No. 7 Section, Zhang Gulin, told her that the hospital at
the municipal level (the hospital recognized by the Law Enforcement Department),
needed to review the diagnosis after the Chinese New Year. Zhang said that they
report to higher-level persons, which in turn, report to their superiors. It is
those persons at the high levels that give approval as to whether or not to
release Mr. Lu Shulin. Mr. Lu's mother knew that Zhang was making excuses, so
she went to the director of the prison, Liu Wei. Liu said he didn't know
anything about this at all. Liu was going to a meeting and asked Mr. Lu's mother
to leave. He said, "I am going to a meeting now." Mother Lu said,
"Is there anything more important than a human life? Someone's life is in
danger now." On December 8, 2005, six Dafa practitioners from Macheng, Hubei were
sentenced and detained at Macheng Detention Center for over a month. Two days
ago, Ms. Yao Xiaoan was sent to Shayang Forced Labor Camp of Hubei Province. Ms.
Hu Liping and Li Chunmei were sent to the Women's Prison of Wuhan City. Ms. Hu
Lingzhi, Ms. Wu Qiping and Ms. Yang Xianhua completed their terms and were
released. [Rushan, Shandong Province] Mr. Cao Yuguo Is Again Sentenced To Two Years of
Forced Labor
Mr. Cao Yuguo, a Dafa practitioner from Rushan, was arrested on the night of
December 30, 2005. When Mr. Cao's wife went to visit him at the detention center
on January 13 of 2006, the workers at the detention center told her that Mr. Cao
had already been sent to Wangcun Forced Labor Camp, where he will spend the next
two years. Since Mr. Cao Yuguo was arrested, he has not been allowed to see his
family, nor receive clothing or blankets from them. Ms. Yuan Zheng, a Dafa practitioner in Zhuhai, Guangdong, is about 38 years
old. She comes from Liaoning. In September 2001, Ms. Yuan was arrested when she
was clarifying the truth to people. She was sent to the No. 2
Detention Center. At the detention center, Ms. Yuan Zheng never told her name.
As a result the workers at the detention center could only register her as
"no name". In June 2002, Ms. Yuan Zheng was sent to another undisclosed location. Her
whereabouts are still unknown. In December 2005, Ms. Li Xiaoqin was searched by the police, but no Dafa
materials were found. However, they extorted her family out of a total of 6,000
yuan. The police threatened to have Ms. Li locked up if they didn't
submit the money. Besides Ms. Li, two more practitioners, Ms. Jia Guilan and Mr.
Wang Yongsheng were also arrested. At Ms. Jia's house the police found a few
copies of the Nine Commentaries on the Communist Party. At
Mr. Wang Yongsheng's house they found some Dafa materials as well as a printer.
When the police questioned Mr. Wang, he said that all the materials were printed
and distributed by him alone, in order to protect the other practitioners
involved. Ms. Jia Guilan was released 18 days after she was arrested. Mr. Wang
Yongsheng is still in detention. January 19, 2006 |
