With these few sincere words I wish to convey a message that Mr Zhiwun Wang should not be punished for being a good man.

Xiong Wei is a female Falun Gong practitioner and former student of the Technical University of Berlin. She is currently being held against her will in Xinan women’s labour camp of Daxing on the outskirts of Beijing, China.

5 policemen in Tuan He Labour Camp shocked me with 6 electric batons simultaneously. They firstly bound me on a bed board to prevent my body from jumping when being choked. Then they shocked me with electric batons on my legs, upper body, shoulders and arms simultaneously, which made my body tremble very violently.

"I hereby make a solemn statement again, that any documents I signed during the period of forced labour in the Tuanhe labour Camp, that are against the cultivation requirements of Falun Gong, were the product of continuous sleep deprivation and torture with high voltage electric batons, and they are against my will. I declare that all of them are void...From now on I will clarify the truth of Falun Gong with double the effort."

In December 2001, my passport expired so I went to a Chinese Consulate to apply for an extension. However, so far the Embassy has refused to extend my passport, saying that it must be referred to the Public Security Department in Beijing.

The electric batons are about twenty inches long. Besides two electrodes at the end of them, they also had spiral wires covering them.

"Lots of people in Trinity have been looking forward to this day since we first learned of Ming's arrest in January 2000. We are so happy to see him safely returned to Dublin."

Having endured two years of torture, Zhao Ming's body has been severely damaged, and he remains very weak. It has been confirmed that he was subjected to near constant beatings, electric baton shocks, forced heavy labour, and coercive brainwashing. He was under great pressure at all times to give up his faith, but he withstood these tests with his righteous beliefs solidly intact.

Zhao Ming has not only suffered extremely savage humiliation and beatings, but also the pressure and threats imposed on him have intensified even more with his release date getting closer. I hope that all the Falun Dafa practitioners who hear this news continue their efforts to appeal for Zhao Ming until Zhao Ming truly returns to a peaceful and safe environment. At the same time, we appeal to Human Rights organizations and people from all walks of life who uphold justice to continue to pay attention to Zhao Ming's situation and to endeavour to protect his personal safety.
