Falun Dafa Practitioners Arrested and Tortured in Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province
(Clearwisdom.net) On March 7, 2007, practitioners Mr. Tao Fu and Mr. Shi
Lagen from Nanchang City, Jiangxi Province, were arrested by police. That night,
one of the truth-clarification materials production sites was
ransacked. Practitioner Mr. Tu Guohuan and his wife were arrested at their home.
Their computer, printer, CD player, motorcycle, and many Falun Dafa
truth-clarification materials were confiscated. Recently, a few more
practitioners whose names are not known have been arrested in Nanchang City. At
present, Mr. Shi Lagen is being detained and tortured in the No. 1 Detention
Center in Nanchang City. According to insiders, officers at the detention center boasted that they
would beat Mr. Shi to death and force him to reveal the identity of more
practitioners. At least nine practitioners have been arrested since. One of Mr.
Shi Lagen's ribs was broken from a beating. Mr. Wei Qiang was beaten until he
was bleeding from his eyes, nose, mouth, and ears. Another practitioner was
beaten to unconsciousness. The Public Security Department has said that the authorities have secretly
ordered the complete disintegration of Falun Gong before the 2008 Olympic Games,
and an increase in the degree of persecution. Several truth-clarification
materials production sites have been destroyed. March 15, 2007 |
