On September 27, 2001, there was a ceremony for the newly finished dormitory building in the Fuyu Forced Labour Camp. Some provincial level officials were to attend and cut the ribbon at the opening ceremony. The Political Supervisor of the camp, Li Hongjun, requested that all of the detained practitioners have numbers on their clothing when they attended the ceremony, just like criminals. All of the steadfast practitioners refused to put on the numbered clothing and refused to attend. The officials couldn't do anything with them, so they ordered five collaborators to attend the ceremony. The practitioners' action suppressed the evil and protected the dignity of Falun Dafa.

The Fuyu Forced Labour Camp has four brigades and eight squadrons. The practitioners were detained in the No. 7 and the No. 8 squadrons. On October 7, 2001, practitioners of Squadron 7 sent forth- righteous thoughts [maintaining true thoughts according to the principles of Falun Dafa] in the cells. A criminal inmate from Squadron 8 saw it and reported to director Lu Zuoquan of Squadron 7. At first, Lu didn't listen to the inmate. But the inmate reported again and again. Lu was angered and he took an electric baton to shock the practitioners. Another police guard, Jiang Ruidong, also used an electric baton to shock practitioners. The practitioners were not deterred by these evil acts and they kept on sending forth righteous thoughts. The practitioners from Squadron 8 saw this and came to Squadron 7 to surround the vicious policemen. Practitioner Zhou Aiguo took an electric baton away from one policeman and broke it by throwing it on the ground. All of the practitioners wanted those abusing the law to be brought to justice. The police guards had no way to control the practitioners, so they ordered the practitioners to do exercises on the playground. Practitioner Zhang Zaohua shouted, "Let's go outside to eliminate the demons." The practitioners from Squadron 8 stood in two long lines on the playground and sent forth righteous thoughts. At the same time, the practitioners of Squadron 7 sent forth righteous thoughts in their cells. This lasted about 15 minutes. Many practitioners felt this action had eliminated many evils. The situation stunned the wicked people. They didn't know what to do. They simply begged the practitioners, "Please go back."

After the practitioners went back to their cells, practitioner Xin Yanliang led them in reciting the new scriptures. The police had no idea how to deal with such a situation. Finally they guaranteed that any criminal who beat the practitioners would be punished and that no such thing would happen again.

In mid October, the practitioners requested to be released unconditionally. They practised in groups and started a hunger strike to protest their illegal detention. So the officials began to suppress the practitioners with great fury. They called in a large number of policemen from the Fuyu County Police Department and ordered many criminal inmates from other brigades to beat the practitioners doing the exercises. The situation is severe. Some practitioners have been severely injured and may die. We are still investigating the details. Fuyu Forced Labour Camp closely blocked the information but we have heard that over twenty practitioners were transferred to the detention centre for further persecution. The situation is urgent.

We call upon all practitioners and all kind people of the world to act urgently to support the practitioners in the Fuyu Forced Labour Camp in Heilongjiang Province.
