1. [Beijing] Nine Falun Dafa Practitioners, Including Guo Weimin, Tried in A Sham Trial

Nine Falun Dafa practitioners were unlawfully put on trial in Courtroom Number 6 of Beijing's No. 2 Intermediate Court located on Fangzhuang Road in Fengtai District at 9:30 a.m. on February 19, 2004. The nine practitioners included Guo Weimin, Wang Yi, Dan Ling, Jin Yuantao, Zhang Zhenzhong, Li Hai, Xu Ruohui, and Bai Lili. The entire trial was a sham and conducted in secret. The defense attorneys, who were designated by the Ruling Party, did not arrive to defend their clients. Instead they showed up to cooperate with the judge in framing the Falun Dafa practitioners. Sentencing was scheduled for 9:30 a.m. Tuesday, February 24, 2004, in Courtroom Number 1 of the same court.

2. [Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province] Zhang Lin, Zhao Qingshan, and Other Falun Dafa Practitioners Sentenced to Long Prison Terms by the Dongli District Court

Zhang Lin has been unlawfully sentenced to twelve years in prison and Zhao Qingshan to eleven years for producing materials that revealed the facts about the persecution of Falun Dafa.

Wu Chunjie and Wang Yunping have each been unlawfully sentenced to ten-year prison terms for producing truth-clarifying materials.

Both Li Shuxiang and Li Yanpei have been unlawfully sentenced to seven years in prison for producing truth-clarifying materials.

3. [Beijing] Li Lan, Graduate of the Aerospace Industrial University, Held in Custody in the Fengtai District Detention Center

"Sent to a Labor Camp and Tortured for Appealing in Beijing, A New Practitioner Regains His Freedom with Determined Righteous Thoughts (Part 1)" was published on the Clearwisdom.net website March 10, 2004. (See

http://www.clearwisdom.net/emh/articles/2004/3/10/45905.html for the original Chinese text.) The practitioner "Xiaomei" mentioned in this article is Ms. Liu Lan, who graduated from the Aerospace Industrial University in Beijing. Because of orders by special agents, the Fengtai District State Security Division unlawfully arrested Ms. Liu on October 29, 2002. She was first sent to the brainwashing center for several weeks before being transferred to the Fengtai District Detention Center in Beijing.

4. [Fuyuan County, Heilongjiang Province] Falun Dafa Practitioner Dai Zhong Arbitrarily Arrested Again by the Police

Dai Zhong is a Falun Dafa practitioner in Hanconggou Township, Fuyuan County, Heilongjiang Province. On January 20, Dai was carried home in critical condition with injuries from the police brutality he received in the Jiamusi Forced Labor Camp. The authorities there were afraid to take responsibility should he die in their custody. Although Dai's condition has not appreciably improved, he was taken back to the Jiamusi Forced Labor camp a few days ago. [Note: It is likely that the authorities there received permission to include his possible death as part of the quota they receive for Falun Gong deaths by torture. The authorities would not want his body to remain outside the labor camp to provide evidence for the crimes they have committed. When Falun Gong practitioners die in the labor camps from torture, the authorities have orders to label the death as from natural causes and cremate the body immediately without notifying the family]

As soon as she stepped outside Zhu's room, four police officers placed her under arrest. The next day the police asked her family to sign the arrest warrant but they refused.

The police department colluded with officials of the Dongfang Exploration Company and demanded 30,000 yuan from Ms. Wei's family, which was way beyond what they could afford to pay.

The Fengchan Road Police Station and neighborhood administrative office sent out people to keep an eye on her around the clock, whether she was at home or out on an errand.
