[Chengde City, Hebei Province] Policewoman Charged in Death of Practitioner

Latest news from Chengde City Jail where Dafa practitioner Ding Yan was tortured to death: several policewomen beat another female practitioner to death. While being beaten, she "fell" down a flight of stairs. Even so, the perpetrators did not relent, but continued to kick and brutally beat her. This may have been what caused her ruptured bladder. Eventually, the practitioner was found dead in jail. We are not sure about her name. Further investigation is underway.

The practitioner's relatives could not accept the abusive treatment leading to her death, so they complained to the authorities and implicated the policewomen. Finally, the policewoman directly responsible was put under criminal detention and awaits sentencing. Other personnel related to the case were punished. This case greatly affected the judiciary system in Hebei Province. Police officers dare not subject practitioners to such brutal torture. Even some common criminals avoided torture because of this incident.

The female group in Chengde City's Jail is no longer allowed to hold Falun Gong practitioners. Practitioners were transferred to Shijiazhuang City's No.2 Jail and Hebei Province' Taihang Jail.

[China] Truth-Clarifying VCDs Manifest Power

A district in a certain city set up an exhibition slandering Dafa. Once a practitioner learned about it, he sent a truth-clarifying VCD to the chairman of the district. On the second day, the exhibition was dismantled. Most people who know the truth will not work for Jiang's criminal regime.

[Qingdao City, Shandong Province] City Abuzz with Talk of Corrupt Officials'

Attempt to Frame Falun Gong for Jialefu Shopping Center Explosion

On the evening of December 23, an explosion occurred in the parking lot of Jialefu Shopping Center in Qingdao City, Shandong Province. The windows of three cars were shattered. Shoppers were terrified. Sources reveal that afterwards, several corrupt city officials attempted to frame Falun Gong for this. They ordered secret investigations of Falun Gong practitioners. Citizens are aware that the government might attempt to frame Falun Gong again.

Obviously, some officials intend to shirk their responsibility for the accident in order to preserve their authority. At the same time, they would frame Falun Gong and please their superiors. They wanted to incite public hatred of Falun Gong and fabricate an excuse to illegally detain and murder kindhearted Falun Gong practitioners. However, many citizens know the truth about Falun Gong. Most are aware of the intentions of the corrupt officers. A year ago, officials concocted the "Tiananmen Square Self-Immolation Incident." Recently, they contrived another farce, that of a "madman killing his family members." People can recognize fraud, as the authorities are always lying.

[Northeast China] Much Truth-Clarifying Material Appears in a Certain City on New Year's Day

On New Year's Day, practitioners in a certain city collectively stepped forward to distribute truth-clarifying literature, post signs and hang up banners. They clarified the truth and offered salvation to the public. It was said that the truth-clarifying literature went into every home in some of the areas where practitioners distributed flyers, which effectively shocked the evil and awakened the public. Recently, a practitioner heard from an everyday person that he received several truth-clarifying articles. He thought it was very good. Because of this activity, many practitioners were detained. When we thought of how the great sacrifice of these detained practitioners would awaken the conscience of the public, we were too moved to hold back our tears.

[Beijing] Female Practitioner from Lianxiang Company Disappears

On December 25, 2001, female practitioner Song Yufei, approximately 27 years old, disappeared. She holds a Master's degree and works in Beijing's Lianxiang Company.

In December, as a fellow practitioner was detained, Song Yufei decided to resign. She moved and changed her cellular phone number. On December 24, 2001, she made a phone call to her director. The director told her that people from the National Security Department had tracked her as she spread Dafa in "BBS," but the head of the company did not know she was a Falun Gong practitioner. The director suggested that in case others were suspicious of her, she had better go to the company and find a reason to resign "with some procedures." Maybe Song Yufei was tricked this way. She had thought of writing a letter to resign. But on the morning of December 25th she went back to the company to resign. Afterwards, she disappeared. We do not have any information about her yet.

[Dingxing County, Hebei Province] Eliminate the Evil in the Brainwashing Class

The authorities of Dingxing County of Hebei Province set up a brainwashing class to persecute Falun Gong practitioners. The class was in Liyuzhuang Township. The head of the brainwashing class is named Li Ping. The excruciating methods they used on practitioners were similar to those in the Masanjia Forced Labor Camp. Most wardens were trained and had learned the techniques for persecuting and abusing Falun Dafa practitioners. They had just recently been transferred from the army to civilian work. If they could not make practitioners give up the practice, they would not be assigned a job. If they succeeded, they would be rewarded and assigned a good job.

From then on there was "another hell in the world." Even a strong young man could not sustain the intensified military training. The wardens beat practitioners when they ran a little slowly or glanced at others. They shouted the commands rapidly or slowly. If practitioners could not respond immediately, they were beaten. The postures they forced practitioners to assume were all harmful to their health. Even after two days some of them still had difficulty walking. Some could not even straighten up. At night, practitioners were forced to write lies as their so-called "experiences," slander Teacher and Dafa, preach against other practitioners, and enlighten in a wrong way. Practitioners were not allowed to talk with each other. Each practitioner had his/her own warden to watch over him. Practitioners were beaten many times a day.

The wardens were extremely brutal to determined practitioners. In "education class," they tortured practitioners with hot chili sauce [in the eyes and nostrils, for instance], electric batons, handcuffs, shackles, electric chairs, cauterizing instruments, the "death bed" and other methods. Some wardens do not want outsiders to know of their abuse of practitioners. Sometimes, the screams are heard late at night. Practitioners are tortured to the point of developing mental disorders, physical disabilities, becoming black and blue from bruises all over their bodies and being rendered incapable of taking care of themselves. The wardens even threatened practitioners that they would torture to death whoever leaked torture information, knowing that higher officials will not investigate death cases of Falun Gong practitioners. Any who had been released and then divulged information about the torture were detained again. Practitioners were forced to pay 1,000 Yuan [300 Yuan is the average monthly income in rural China] every month for "class expenses." The brainwashing class has lasted for about a year.

We hope all people learn about this issue and that international human rights organizations will support and help practitioners. Practitioners: Send forth righteous thoughts to eliminate the evil.

[Jixi City, Heilongjiang Province] Zhang Peizeng Detained Immediately after Release from a Forced Labor Camp

At the end of December 2001, immediately after practitioner Zhang Peizeng was released from a labor camp, the police from Jixi City's Donghaikuang Police Station detained him again. He hadn't even had time to visit his home. The police attempted to force him to write the "guarantee statement" (to give up Falun Dafa), slander Dafa and give up the practice. Zhang Peizeng said, "I will never write the guarantee statement." The lawless police officers threw him into the detention center again.

On December 29, 2001, police from the Political Security Department of Mishan City's Police Department arrested male practitioner Wang Zhi. Wang Zhi did not fear the police. "I'm innocent. You have no authority to arrest me." He did not cooperate with the police. Now he has been on a hunger strike for 10 days. His life is in danger.

[Taikang County, Henan Province] Two Practitioners Disappear

From November 26 to 27, 2001, Dafa practitioners Li Rong (pseudonym, female, about 22 years old) and Tiansheng (pseudonym, male, about 30 years old) disappeared from their rental homes in Taikang County of Henan Province. We have learned that the local police secretly kidnapped them. Some Dafa truth-clarifying materials and silkscreen printing plates were damaged. It is suspected that the collaborators (former practitioners who have gone astray due to brainwashing and torture), Wei Dongling and her husband, Cheng Changzheng reported them to the police. Before the accident, Wei lived with Li Rong. Afterwards, Wei was okay, while Li Rong and Tiansheng were missing. Cheng Changzheng had twice reported practitioners, which led to many practitioners' detention and brought about heavy damage to Dafa.

[Mudanjiang City, Heilongjiang Province] Practitioners from Wenchun Detained Distributing Truth-Clarifying Materials

On December 31, 2001, at 8:00 p.m. a policeman from the cement factory's police station detained an over 50-year-old female practitioner, Gao Guiqing, an employee of a cement factory, when she was distributing Dafa truth-clarifying materials. After two days of interrogation she was sent to Mudanjiang City. Now she is in a "610 Office" brainwashing class. (The "610 Office" is an agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems).

On the night of January 1, 2002, policemen from Wenchun Police Station detained female practitioner Li Jingwei, male practitioner Wang Yongmao (both of them are employees in a research institute) and female practitioner Yu Liqun (an employee in an agriculture college) when the practitioners were hanging up banners. Li's husband went to the police station twice to see her, but he was not allowed to visit her. The people from the police station and the agriculture institute said the practitioners were not allowed to sleep for two whole days. They were sent to Mudanjiang City's Detention Center and went on a hunger strike from the day they were detained. The policemen ransacked the three practitioners' homes. The police also claimed they would sentence Li to six years of imprisonment, as many Dafa truth-clarifying materials were found in her home.

We hope all practitioners in the world send forth righteous thoughts to support the detained practitioners and help them by writing letters or making phone calls to related departments. Let's suffocate the evil together.

[Lanzhou City, Gansu Province] Lawless Police Kidnap Practitioners

In recent days, policemen from Lanzhou City have illegally tracked and then kidnapped several Dafa practitioners. Among them is female practitioner Zhang Jinmei from the Xigu District. The police officers kidnapped her when she was visiting her father who was having surgery at a hospital.

[Chengdu City, Sichuan Province] More Than 100 Determined Falun Gong Practitioners were Designated as Counter-Revolutionary" in a Secret Meeting Held By People at the No. 420 Factory

An individual who is employed at the political and judiciary system of Chengdu City disclosed that No.420 Factory authorities held a secret meeting recently and designated more than 100 determined practitioners as "Counter-Revolutionary." They also gave the list of names to their superiors to prepare for further persecution of these practitioners.

[Guangxi Province] Personnel from A City's Police Department Force Internet Bars to Install Monitoring Software

To prevent practitioners and the predestined people from browsing Minghui. Net and other web sites that report the truth about Falun Gong, a city's Police Department authority in Guangxi Province stipulated that each Internet bar must install monitoring software. They did spot checks before New Year's Day and forced all the Internet bars that hadn't installed such software to install it immediately.

[Guangxi Province] Police Take "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance" as Most Important "Hidden Trouble"

In an internal briefing document, "Public Security Information (5)" published on January 3, 2002, the section discussing "the public security status of a certain District during New Year's day" gave "Discovering Falun Gong truth-clarifying materials" top news priority while 2 murder cases were moved to second place and stories about an accidental fire, a case of plunder and 2 cases of theft were ranked third to fifth.

[Shenzhen City, Guangdong Province] The Inside Story of What Happened to Zheng Yuyan

Zheng Yuyan, female, 43 years old, used to be director of the Party committee of the Foodstuff Storage Bureau, Shenzhen City, but she had already handed in her application to resign from the Party before she was arrested. She was one of the veteran Dafa practitioners in Shenzhen City. Since the authorities began to persecute Falun Gong, she has participated in the appeal to the city committee. Since October 1999, she has been arrested many times, the last time January 2001. Now she has been illegally imprisoned at the Sanshui Forced Labor Camp, Guangdong Province. No one is permitted to visit her. She has a son about 8 years old who is under no one's care.

[Dalian City, Liaoning Province] Please Pay Attention to the Recent Situation of Practitioners Wang Shuai and Wang Lin

Falun Dafa practitioner Wang Shuai from Dalian City was arrested in December 2001 because of delivering truth-clarifying materials. Where he was imprisoned is unknown.

Practitioner Wang Lin from Dalian Bay was illegally detained at the Dalian's Forced Labor Camp for delivering Falun Dafa truth-clarifying materials. Because he refused to give up the practice of cultivation, he was illegally sent to the Changtu's Guanshan Forced Labor Camp, Shenyang City, on December 5, 2001.

Policemen Miao Zhuang and director of the police department, Geng Yongfeng, have illegally arrested Falun Dafa practitioner Wang Lin. They had also arrested other Dafa practitioners without due process of law and often sent them to forced labor camps. One female practitioner was sent to a mental hospital after 15 days' detention because she refused to give up practicing Falun Dafa cultivation. One month later, after these criminal policemen extorted money from her relatives, she was removed from the mental hospital. She has been harmed badly both physically and mentally.

Geng Yongfeng has been removed from his post. The current police department director is Zhang Wuhui.

[Liaoning Province] Practitioner's Relatives Rebuke Police from the Dafangshen Police Station/ Dalian Bay Town for Abducting Practitioners to a Brainwashing Class

Before October of 2000, policemen from Dafangshen abducted eight practitioners to a brainwashing class and then they shamelessly extorted 2,000 Yuan [about US$230, about one year's average income in rural China] from each practitioner. If there were no money available, they would go to practitioners' homes to remove their furniture. Practitioner Chen's husband went to the police station to ask to have his own property returned to him. The police officers rebuked him without returning anything. Then his mother went to see the director of the police station to ask for the return of their belongings, and said, "My daughter-in-law did not go anywhere, but you arrested her; now my son and she are separated. Such a good family was broken up. What you have done has profoundly affected our normal life."

[Haikou City, Hainan Province] Exposing Brainwashing Class Enforcers' Evil Deeds

Enforcers of Haikou City's "610 Office" [an agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems] organized a brainwashing class at the Xiuying City's militia training camp. Falun Gong practitioners who were abducted here were not allowed to sleep, sit, or lie down--only stand! Sometimes practitioners had to continue standing for more than 20 days. As soon as one would fall asleep, his/her hair would be yanked, or s/he would be kicked. The enforcers made special trips to Beijing, to Liaoning Province's Masanjia Forced Labor Camp and other places to learn how to brainwash practitioners. The authorities also invited some former practitioners from Beijing who had turned to the evil to help in brainwashing. Five or six of them surrounded one Dafa practitioner. They took advantage of the fact that the sleep-deprived practitioners were mentally sluggish to imbue their wrongful "enlightenment" onto them to confuse the genuine Dafa practitioners. Recently, enforcers from the brainwashing class started to kidnap practitioners again. We remind practitioners to send forth righteous thoughts to resist these evil intentions.

[Beijing] Arrest of Female Practitioner Zhou Hui Who Lives near Beijing's Asian Olympic Village

[Shulan City, Jilin Province] Policemen's Vicious Deeds at Shulan City's Detention Center

Different Deeds Committed by various Individuals:

Director Zhao: Physically and verbally abused an unlawfully detained practitioner who was on a hunger strike and would not cooperate with force-feeding.

[China] Abusive Police Persecute Practitioners

On November 5, 2001, seven or eight policemen beat practitioner Zhao Qiumei, female, 25 years old, at Tiananmen Square. One of the policemen kicked her private parts so hard that her head was thrown back to hit the wall and she immediately lost consciousness. She woke up after two days with a swollen face, blue and swollen eyes and an injured leg. The policemen who beat her were from the Tiananmen Police Station.

On December 4, 2001, policeman You Hongliang from Jilin City's Industrial Oil Manufacturing Police Station and another unknown policeman violently beat female practitioner Qu Guirong and then ransacked her home.

On November 25, 2001, female practitioner Xu Chunrong unfurled a banner reading "Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance" on the Tiananmen Rostrum. She was sent to the Tiananmen Police Station. Her head was slammed against the wall and she immediately lost consciousness. Policemen did not give up on her, but twice put drops of an unknown drug into her nose, which caused a nosebleed. An abusive policeman stepped on her abdomen and ordered a doctor to inject her with drugs that affected her heart. Her whole body began twitching, she had difficult breathing and was in critical condition.

Spies and insane convicts were sent into the iron cages where practitioners were detained. They attempted to beat practitioners. Practitioners sent forth righteous thoughts and ruined the vicious plot.

Over more than ten days detention, Xu Chunrong did not cooperate with perpetrators no matter where she was, at Beijing's Police Department, the local police department, the detention center or hospital. When she was awake she would always tell policemen to keep in mind that, "Falun Dafa is Great," and the saying, "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance" and "Good people will be rewarded with a good future." During that time she constantly vomited blood. After December 4 or 5, she lost consciousness, vomited blood, went into convulsions and could not take any food and water. On December 10, at midnight, Xu Chunrong was sent back to her hometown in a local police car. Near death, she is being detained at the No. 3 Detention Center. Her aunt is taking care of her young daughter.

[Dehui City, Jilin Province] News Briefs from Dehui City

On December 28, 2001 from 11p.m. to 4a.m. the next day, lawless police officers broke into the homes of practitioners Wang Shuzhen, Dong Yunqin, Zhao Yaqin, and Jiang Lide, searching and ransacking the homes.

[Baishan City, Jilin Province] Multiple Arrests of Practitioners by Personnel from Baishan City's Political, Legal and Police Departments

On the evening of December 31, 2001, when the whole world was celebrating the New Year, officers of Baishan City's Police Department duped practitioner Yang Jingwei, a 29-year-old university graduate/computer specialist, into going to his work unit, the Hunjiang Power Plant, with the excuse of "having a party," and afterward kidnapped him and transported him into a detention center for persecution. The practitioner was just back from visiting relatives in his hometown, Liaoyuan City in Jilin Province.

Around December 29, 2001, enforcers from Baishan City's Forced Labor Camp collaborated with people from the Hongqi Police Station in Badaojiang District. They deceived an elderly practitioner, Yao Xucai, who had been released but was still under surveillance, to return to the labor camp under the pretense of "As the situation at year's end is very serious, you are required to stay in the labor camp for a couple more days." The next day, they hastily and secretly sent Yao to the Chaoyanggou Forced Labor Camp in Changchun City. Yao Xucai is 65 years old and is a determined practitioner. There are more than a dozen people in his family who cultivate Dafa.

On the evening of December 31, 2001, authorities from the National Security Bureau of Baishan City abducted female practitioner Jing Xiaohong to a detention center and tortured her. Jing Xiaohong, 33 years old, is a university graduate. She holds a resident registration card from Dalian City and used to work in Beijing. She came back to Baishan City to visit her relatives on New Year's Day.

[Hegang City, Heilongjiang Province] Persistent Arrest of Dafa Practitioners at the Hands of People from Hegang City's Police Department

At 4:00 p.m. on January 5, 2002, practitioner Liu Xia, who before July 22nd, 1999 was a clothing cutter at "Great World" and a former volunteer assistant director, was arrested by a lawless police officer from the Shengli Police Station. She and her relatives' homes were ransacked. The villains didn't find anything they could utilize.

Even though Liu Xia displayed symptoms of convulsion at the police station, the policemen didn't let her go. They sent her to a hospital, kept her there for one day and then, after she recovered, sent her to No.2 Detention Center. Her husband is also a practitioner and was forced to leave home to avoid persecution. Her son, who had just entered junior middle school, is also watched by the police and is now being taken care of by their relatives.

Practitioner Deng Aimin, female, from the Xinnan District of Hegang City did truth-clarifying work and was arrested by policemen waiting on spot. They directly sent her to the No.2 Detention Center.

Practitioner Du Guijie worked at the Injection Room on 5th floor of Hegang City's Hospital. S/he clarified the truth to the patients who came there. A vile person reported the practitioner to the police. Around New Year's Day that practitioner was put into the No.2 Detention Center.

A while ago, a practitioner in Hegang City was illegally sentenced to 6 years of forced labor for distributing Dafa truth-clarifying materials. The police officers even claimed, "Once caught, whoever distributes truth-clarifying materials will be sentenced to 3 years (forced labor)."

[Jiamusi City, Heilongjiang Province] Domestic Terrorism and Escalating Persecution Against Kind People - Deputy Director of Jiamusi City Creates Strife

On January 5, 2002, Jiamusi City's TV station broadcast a program related to the meeting "Handling the Falun Gong Issue," chaired by the deputy director and mayor Xu Beijun in the city's suburb where Xu made a speech and arranged for the persecution. This is another side of the escalating persecution against kind people and also of the domestic terrorist acts committed by criminal officials during New Year's Day and the Spring Festival in Jiamusi City.

[Dehui City, Jilin Province] Enforcers from Halaha Township's Police Station Ransack Practitioner's Home

At 9:00 a.m. on December 29, 2001, deputy director Li of Halaha Township's Police Station led three policemen to break into practitioner Zhang Xuedong's home. They conducted an illegal search, confiscated over 3,000 pieces of Dafa materials and abducted Yuan Xuefeng who had gone there to do some work. He has since been released. At present, Zhang Xuedong and his wife have little choice but to leave home to avoid further persecution.

[Beijing] Beijing Police, Without due Process of Law, Arrest a Practitioner from the Yanjiao Tunnel Bureau; The Practitioner is Still Missing

In March 2001, Beijing Police illegally arrested practitioner Liang Xiaoying from the Yanjiao Tunnel Bureau. The practitioner is in his/her 30's and his/her current circumstances are not known.
