Facts of the Persecution

1. Torture of Falun Dafa Practitioner Ms. Yang Huixia from Jilin Province

Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Yang Huixia from Jilin province is 36 years old, and is jailed in the Fourth Ward of the Jilin Province Women's Prison. On March 7, 2002, at around 8:00 a.m., Ms. Yang Huixia and two other fellow practitioners were arrested and taken to the Tongjiang Police Substation in Changyi District, Jilin City, Jilin Province. Two young police officers named Xing and Xiaohui (gender unknown) interrogated them using torture. They handcuffed Ms. Yang to the top of a metal door frame at around 8:00 p.m., with her toes barely touching the ground. She was handcuffed very tightly, which caused extreme pain throughout her body. At midnight, police officer Xiaohui covered her mouth and nose with a plastic bag, which quickly caused her to pass out. They suffocated Ms. Yang repeatedly, causing her to pass out more than 50 times that night. She was left hanging until after 10:00 a.m. the following morning, and then taken to the Third Detention Center.

2. Police in Zeng City, Guangdong Province Abuse Falun Dafa Practitioner Mr. Feng Bingkun

On February 21, 2005, Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Feng Bingkun was arrested and then put on trial on April 26. Only Mr. Feng's older brother was allowed to attend the court proceedings, and Mr. Feng Bingkun was not allowed to defend himself or hire an attorney. Mr. Feng's family, including his parents, siblings, and parents-in-law were put under surveillance and constantly harassed and threatened by police officers from Long Town, Zeng City between February 21 and April 26. Policemen also stole Mr. Feng's family motorcycle, their only possession that was worth any money. The police not only refused to issue a receipt, they made up a blatant lie that the motorcycle was "junked," in order to take possession of it.

3. Grave Injustice in Jilin Prison

On April 4, 2005, at around 7:30 a.m., Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Shi Guohong, who is being detained in the Fifth Ward of Jilin Prison, reported to Prison Officer Zhang Jianhua (male) that he could not join the labor crews because of a physical condition. Upon returning to his cell, prisoner Han Zhiqiang (male) kicked and punched him several times in the legs, chest, back, lower back, and arms. Later Mr. Shi reported this cruel beating to another guard, Lin Zhibin (male), but was only acknowledged with slaps on the face.

Mr. Shi Guohong was first taken to Jilin Prison on April 16, 2003. On May 12, 2003, he was beaten by prisoner Wang Lijun (male) during class time, which resulted in fractured ribs on the left side and a lower back injury.

4. Crimes Committed by Policeman Song Jiaxi from Xingtai City, Hebei Province

Song Jiaxi is the chairman of the Political and Security Office at the Xingtai City Police Department. In April 2004, Luo Gan announced a "Special April Campaign," during which special merit awards would be issued for each Falun Gong practitioner arrested. Song Jiaxi and Xingtai City Police Department Deputy Director Zhang Yujie were planning to destroy Falun Dafa materials production centers, and they arrested more than fifty Falun Dafa practitioners. Among them, more than ten were sentenced to prison terms, forced labor, sent to brainwashing classes, or were extorted. Song and Zhang arrested additional Falun Dafa practitioners who were in better financial condition at the end of 2004, and then extorted money from them.
