Ms. Ma Xianling from Beijing Narrates Her Experience of Being Persecuted
2010-03-15
I was arrested in 2004 while I was giving out Falun Gong leaflets exposing the persecution with another fellow practitioner. We were reported and arrested by police. They tried to force me to tell them the source of the materials and also the names of my fellow practitioners. I refused to co-operate with them and they started to beat me. I was forced to sit on a cold metal chair, and was confined to a small cell, but no matter how they persecuted me, they could not change my heart of being determined in cultivating Falun Gong. Half a year later, because of the fact that I was severely persecuted, I was bailed out for medical treatment. -

Persecution Suffered by Mr. Zheng Fangjun Prior to His Death

Ms. Huang Yixiu, a Peasant Farmer, Detained Many Times

She recounts: "More than a dozen practitioners, including myself, were arrested and detained on July 18th, 2000. 610 Office agents violently beat practitioners. We were forced to work slavishly during the day. If any of the practitioners did the Falun Gong exercises, they were beaten black and blue with electric batons. After we were maltreated for 19 days, we were taken back to our villages by local police and tortured. They exposed us to the burning sun, forced us to squat for long periods of time, and bound us together for display to the public. We were also forced to wash cars, do cleaning, and do 1-metre-deep weeding with our hands. Despite the forced labour, we were often deprived of food." -
