Prior to October 1, 2003, personnel from Wuhan City "610 Office" collaborated with personnel from Wuhan City Police Department to rampantly arrest the Dafa practitioners named below:

1. Dafa practitioner Ms. Guo Ruihong from Jiang'an District was taken from home at night to the Jiang'an District's "Transformation Class."

2. Dafa practitioners Ms. Zheng Xiaoqi and Ms. Wu Dan were taken from their work place, the Wuhan City Jiang'an Vehicle Factory in front of many people by personnel from the Jiang'an District's "610 Office" who were collaborating with local police. Ms. Wu Dan resisted the evil persecution and thus suffered all kinds of torture. She has now been sent to Wuhan City's No.1 Women Detention Center.

Ms. Pu from Xibeihu Street, Jiang'an District, was taken away from home and her home was ransacked.

The Jiang'an District's brainwashing class has now transferred to a closed-down Smelting Factory's office in the Chenjiaji District.

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.

[Southern China] Dafa Practitioners Release Truth-Clarifying Banners Tied to Balloons

During the morning of October 1, 2003, in a southern China city, Dafa practitioners released dozens of big balloons and two hundred small balloons. The big balloons had several truth-telling banners tied to them. The truth-clarifying banners were made of red, yellow and blue cloth and written on them were sentences like, "Falun Dafa is Good," "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance is Good," "Falun Dafa is the Orthodox Law," "Jiang Zemin Committed Genocide Against Dafa Practitioners; He will be Held Responsible," and "Jiang Zemin Sued for Genocide in the international courts." The small balloons were tied together with colorful handkerchiefs. This scene greatly shocked the evil.

In late July 2003, ordinary police and masked, plainclothes officers took away Dafa practitioner Ye Hongchun from Taikang County, Henan Province. He was put into a detention center for close monitoring. Right now he has again been transferred. His whereabouts are unknown.

The policemen from the Hongweixing Prison relentlessly torture Dafa practitioners. They don't allow practitioners to see their families for a long period of time. Recently, in order to force Dafa practitioners to give up cultivation, they torture and persecute Dafa practitioners by depriving them of their right to sleep. As the police strictly block information from being released to the outside, an investigation of the details continues.

On October 4, 2003, more than 20 practitioners from a Southwest region of China successfully held a Dafa conference. They recited "Lunyu" and "Hongyin," and sent forth righteous thoughts as a group. The practitioners also shared ideas about how to work together diligently to eliminate the local vicious brainwashing classes and how to break through selfishness. They had a clearer understanding after sharing ideas how to do the three things [study the Fa; clarify the facts, send righteous thoughts] after the sharing. They achieved the goal of helping each other to upgrade together as a whole body. They also had further understanding on eliminating evil interference at anytime, avoiding damage, and achieving an effective group impact.

On August 15 2003, policemen from Dalian City's Zhongshan Precinct arrested practitioners Ms. Li Xin'e and her sister Ms. Li Jingyi from Dalian City, Liaoning Province and detained them at the Yaojia Detention Center. It was said that the police were going to sentence them to long-term imprisonment. Li Jingyi is in the jurisdiction of the Qingni Police Precinct, and Li Xin'e is in the Guilin Police Precinct. The trial, though, is being processed in the Jiefang Street Police Precinct.

In early September of 2003, Dandong City Labor Camp in Liaoning Province started to transfer practitioners to a Drug Rehabilitation Center in Benxi City Forced Labor Camp without notifying practitioners' relatives. The detailed information is unknown. It was heard that some practitioners have staged a hunger strike.

Li Xianglan has already been sentenced to forced labor and has been sent to Jamusi City Forced Labor Camp.

In 2000, he brutally beat an elderly female Dafa practitioner detained at the Qilihe Brainwashing Class.
