  • The Persecution of a Female Dafa Practitioner by the police in Linjiang City

    They put heavy handcuffs and shackles on her, with her hands and feet locked together so that she was unable to sit, stand, or lie down. Also, her 3,000 Yuan RMB in cash (equivalent to 6 months of income for an average Chinese worker), cell phone, and pager were all seized. Then she was sent to No. 2 Division of the Changchun City Police Department where she endured brutal beatings.
  • The Disingenuous "Work and Rest Schedule" of the Heizuizi Labor Camp in Changchun City, Jilin Province

    The "Work and Rest Schedule" in that labor camp is only a facade, used to show inspectors or visitors from the outside. That way people from the outside never know about the real situation in the labor camp. This trick is often used by Jiang Zemin and his followers in order to manufacture and spread lies.
  • Revealing the Conditions at the Shuanghe Labor Camp in Qiqihar City, Heilongjiang Province

    The guards are well fed, but practitioners can only eat bread made with very crude flours. Sometimes the bread had already molded. The food for practitioners is extremely bad and lacks nutrition; sometimes it is even rotten. The result of eating this kind of food is that the practitioners suffer from severe malnutrition. The guards also cheat their superiors when they come to check: they have the cooks prepare some good food, and tell them to lie about feeding practitioners the good food, with vegetables and meat in every meal. Sometimes the guards bring some watermelons and tomatoes and sell them to practitioners at very high prices. Moreover, the vegetables that practitioners grow themselves are sold to them at very high prices.
  • Press Statement Regarding Recent Intensified Persecution in Changchun City, Jilin Province

    And what is the ultimate objective of all this torture and humiliation? It is all to extract a signature on a "guarantee" letter saying that the signer will not practice Falun Gong again. Sign the letter and you can be released with no injuries and go home. Refuse and you will likely lose your job, lose your home, be separated from your family, be held in prison, and be tortured, to death if necessary. Why such a glaring difference in outcome between signing and not signing? It seems like such a ridiculous effort for such a small thing. But it is because the piece of paper represents something much more. For the current Chinese regime, as with all totalitarian regimes, victory lies in crushing the human will so one will blindly follow the wishes of the Party or the leader. No one should have to renounce their faith to regain their freedom.
  • Female Practitioner, Lu Hongfeng, The Former Vice-Principal of the No. 1 Elementary School of Lingwu City, Ningxia Province, Was Tortured to Death by the Local Mental Hospital

    A former vice-principal of the No. 1 Elementary School of Lingwu City, Ningxia Province, Lu Hongfeng, thirty seven years old, was sent to the local mental hospital against her will since she insisted on speaking the truth about Falun Gong. She passed away on September 6, 2000 after being severely tortured through forcible high dose injections of powerful drugs used on mentally ill patients. Lu Hongfeng was completely mentally healthy.
  • Exposing the Atrocities of Masanjia Labor Camp (Part II)

    During a late night, while I was being punished to bend over, brainwashed practitioner Yang Lin and Yue Shuaimo (released by now) both forced me down by pressing on my back. My legs ached so much as if they were broken. Sweat rolled down my head. There were also other practitioners being punished in the same room. The brainwashed practitioners kept a close watch on me and on other practitioners, and would hit us if there were any slight changes in our squat positions. The punishment usually lasted from day to night, and proceeded to the morning after. Night after night we were not allowed to sleep.
  • Talking About Falun Gong with a Leader of the "610" Office

    After having a friendly talk with them, the young man from the Department of Organization frankly told me what he really thought, "Actually, I read Zhuan Falun before the start of the persecution. I didn't find anything wrong. It was a very good book. If Falun Gong was not attacked as an XX [slanderous word omitted], I myself would have learned it."
  • The Persecution of Falun Dafa Practitioners in Zhaoyuan County, Heilongjiang Province

    A six-year-old child lives next door to a practitioner. Every day he fears the police will arrest his mother because the police have often interrogated his family members, asking if their neighbor was practicing, or if there were people visiting the neighbor. Why instill terror in the heart of an innocent child? This serious violation of human rights receives condemnation from more and more kind-hearted people.
  • The Experience of a Ph.D. Candidate and His Fiancee at the Shanghai University of Transportation

    Yang and Zhao met, got to know each other, and fell in love with each other through cultivating Falun Dafa. Since they were persecuted, they were forced to be separated, yet they still helped and encouraged each other when facing the tremendous hardships. After their release, they were again united. Although the persecution is still continuing, they always have active and optimistic minds. They even began preparing for their wedding.
  • Tsinghua Graduate Student Wang Zhiqiang Disappears in Beijing

    No one knows whether this practitioner is dead or alive. All righteous people inside or outside the country: please pay close attention to this case and extend your support. Also, all alumni of Tsinghua University, no mater where you are, please speak out for justice and appeal so that your kind school-mates can be freed as soon as possible.
  • Middle-Aged Man Dies from Torture after Refusing to Give up Beliefs

    In the labor camp, Mr. Ren was tortured in an attempt to force him to renounce Falun Gong and agree to stop practicing. Mr. Ren refused, and therefore, suffered continued torture over the next eight months. Mr. Ren died at 4:00pm on October 29. Before Mr. Ren passed away, he had said, "I believe in Falun Dafa."
  • The 610 Office Moves from Backstage to the Forefront and Shows Its True Viciousness

    Previously, the 610 Office operated in the background, and most people had either never heard of it or had only vague impressions of it. This organization tended to stay behind the scenes and direct others to carry out its orders. Since the orchestrated, self-deceiving production of the self-immolation at Tiananmen Square was staged on the Chinese New Year this year, the 610 Office has come to the forefront in the persecution. The 610 Offices at all levels in every area seem to be competing with each other to persecute Falun Dafa practitioners, completely revealing their true, evil nature.
  • The Vicious Persecutors Also Target Falun Gong Practitioner’s Family Members in an Attempt to Step up the Persecution.

    One practitioner's relative was very unhappy with the persecution of Falun Dafa. One day, some policemen came to his home, harassing him again. When he condemned their illegal acts, one policeman argued, "They (practitioners) shouldn't ignore their relatives' feelings. What we are doing is all for their good." This relative immediately refuted this by saying, "Who actually lacks consideration for the family? You have tapped our phone calls and searched for them at home, time and again. How could they call back or come back home? If they came back, wouldn't that offer you the chance to take them away? You keep saying that what you are doing is for their benefit. Is this the way you treat them for their own good?" The police, unable to find any words to defend themselves, left in anger.

  • Teenage Girls Tortured
