In the brainwashing centre in Zhangbei, Hebei Province, every Dafa practitioner has a single room and is monitored by a person from the "610 Office." [a bureau specifically created by the Chinese government to persecute Falun Gong. It has absolute power over each level of administration in the Party, as well as over the political and judiciary branches] Dafa practitioners are not allowed to see each other at all. The "610" people follow and watch them even while they clean themselves, brush their teeth, and go to the bathroom. In short, the practitioners have no freedom at all. Two practitioners didn't cooperate with their cruel methods, and were secretly sent to a brainwashing centre in Zhangjiakou.

Two of the female practitioners that were kidnapped and taken to the brainwashing center were pregnant. One of them was secretly sent to the Gaoyang Brainwashing Centre where she suffered all kinds of severe torture and abuse. She was beaten so badly that her cervical vertebrae and lumbar vertebrae were dislocated and she couldn't move. According to an examination by the doctors from the Provincial Hospital of Hebei, she was afflicted with high position paralysis, and there was no way to treat her. The Gaoyang Labour Camp instructed her family to take her home. By the time her husband came to take her away, she was only a single breath from death.

She recovered marginally after being taken care of by her mother-in-law. The vicious police then seized the opportunity when her husband wasn't home, and carried her away in her bed sheets, back to the brainwashing centre again. They dragged her on the ground so carelessly that she suffered a massive hemorrhage. They then took her to a hospital and tried to force her to have a C-section. The doctor, however found three uterine tumours, and her life would have been in danger if a C-section was attempted. In light of this, they took her back to the brainwashing centre.

In detention she couldn't eat or sleep and was in an extremely deteriorated mental condition. Under intense pressure from her and her family, the authorities finally allowed her to go home. When she was still recovering, the police harassed her at her home every other day, demanding that she have a C-section. Finally, they sent her to the hospital by force again. The doctor saw her serious situation and didn't dare to do the operation, so they let her go home. However the cruel police still wouldn't give up. They illegally took away the family's color TV and motorcycle, then they persisted, often going to her home to try to force her to have the operation. This practitioner, who was recovered marginally, had no other choice but to become destitute and homeless in order to avoid being illegally arrested at home.

The other pregnant Dafa practitioner often had instances of intense vomiting. After the police kidnapped her, she didn't drink any water for several days but kept vomiting, and wasn't allowed to go home until she was on the verge of death.

Another practitioner who had no source of income decided to go out of town to find work. The malicious police suspected that she was going to Beijing to appeal for Falun Dafa, so they kidnapped her and took her to a brainwashing centre as well.

The people in charge of the brainwashing classes would not even leave the elderly practitioners alone. There was a practitioner in her 50's who was a farmer. Her body was full of illnesses before she started practising. The illnesses all disappeared shortly after she started practising Falun Dafa. The Chinese police kidnapped her from her home and took her to the brainwashing centre without reason or warrant, beating and insulting her at whim. Zhao Chunli, the Commissar Of the Public Safety Department, Sun Jianjun, Hou Jianping, the Directors of "610 Office", and especially Yan Jie, the head of Zhangbei County Propaganda Department, closed the curtains and locked the door to the room where she was detained in order to intimidate, deceive, threaten and insult her at will. The practitioner was kept for more than a month, causing her work at the farm substantial delay, and incurring serious loss to the farm.

Another practitioner was a woman in her 60's. She went to her daughter's home in Beijing before the police tried to arrest her for practicing Falun Dafa. When they got to her home, they found the old woman wasn't there, so six or seven people from the Public Security Department and the township drove a police vehicle to Beijing and ordered her to return to her home in Zhangbei. These miscreants deprived Dafa practitioners' rights of visiting relatives in such a manner. As well, some practitioners were even highjacked by the police on the way to their relatives' homes.

The latest arrest was led by Li Hai from the Public Safety Department. He said that the families of whoever won't write the "Guarantee Statement" (a statement that a practitioner will stop practising Falun Dafa) will be torn apart, and their members killed. Even now they are still persisting in their persecution of Dafa practitioners. Yue Wanlin had congenital heart disease before she started practising Falun Gong. She was harassed by the Chinese police to such an extent that she had no other choice but to become destitute and homeless in fear of illegal arrest. Recently they kidnapped her from somewhere out of town and incarcerated her in a detention centre, where they are planning to sentence her.

Since July 22, 1999, they have illegally sent numerous Dafa practitioners to detention centres and labour camps. Every time they release someone from the brainwashing centre, they illegally demand a deposit of 4000 -- 6000 Yuan (500 Yuan is the average monthly income for an urban worker in China.)

This just in: They are secretly holding another meeting to plan more mass arrests of Falun Dafa practitioners.
