Illegal Activities Of Crooked Officials

1. Policemen Carry out the "Four-Ones" Policy

Da'an City, Jilin Province

From January 28, 2002, officers from the "610 Office" [An agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems] and the police department of Da'an City began a citywide persecution of Dafa practitioners. They forced those who had practiced Falun Gong to write the "guarantee statements" to renounce their belief. The police claimed, "Don't expect to have a good Spring Festival if you don't write the guarantee statements." [These statements declare that practitioners are sorry they ever practiced Falun Dafa, are guaranteeing never to go to Beijing to appeal for Dafa, will not associate with other Dafa practitioners and will renounce their belief in Dafa].

Police enforcers ransacked Dafa practitioners' homes and carried out the so-called "Four Ones" policy: if one Dafa book, one tape, one disc, one Dafa truth-clarifying flyer or a piece of paper related to Falun Dafa was found at his home, the practitioner would be detained for one month. If he refused to write a "guarantee statement," he would be sentenced to imprisonment. The police even forcibly searched any passengers carrying a black plastic bag in streets. As the Chinese Spring Festival is approaching, Da'an City is in a fearful uproar.

Up until February 3, 2002, it was known that policemen had illegally arrested nine Dafa practitioners including a 74-year-old woman. A female practitioner was kidnapped after she just said, "What's wrong with practicing Falun Gong?" to the police, who were ransacking her home.

All are preparing for a happy Chinese Spring Festival, while the kind-hearted Dafa practitioners were forced to leave their homes and separate from their families. They lead a difficult life, and some were even tortured to death.

2. District Court Officers Illegally Sentence Practitioners to Lengthy Imprisonment
Jiangxi Province

On December 15, 2001, Jiujiang City's Lushan District Court officers illegally sentenced practitioners, who already had been detained over nine months. Practitioners Zhang Shu and Lu Yiming were sentenced to seven-and-a-half years of imprisonment. Practitioners Wu Zhouyun and Liu Limo were sentenced to seven years and four years of imprisonment, respectively. Prior to being sentenced, these four practitioners had been repeatedly persecuted. Practitioner Mr. Zhang Shu's home was ransacked multiple times. He and his wife were expelled from their factory. His daughter had to go to work to earn a living. Policemen from Xiamen City's Police Department confiscated the couple's only deposit of 10,000 Yuan or more [500 Yuan is average monthly income in urban China]. His wife is also a Falun Dafa practitioner. Practitioner Mr. Lu Yiming's family members were out of work. They could not financially support him. Mr. Wu Zhouyun's wife was a practitioner too, who had to live in exile during the last year. No one took care of their 10- year-old daughter, who life was very difficult. Practitioner Liu Limo formerly had a happy family. Under the pressure from government officials, her husband divorced her. Their less than 10- year- old daughter was deprived of their maternal love. Mrs. Liu Limo was tortured with all kinds of means during her detention period, which led to paralysis of her legs. She was persecuted to her last gasp of breath. Policemen ordered her family to take her home, as they feared being held responsible for her impending death during the detention term. Shortly after her release, Mrs. Liu Limo recovered, without receiving any treatment. And yet, the judiciary authorities sentenced her to four years of imprisonment.

Mr. Lanhu, his mother and his fiancé, all Falun Dafa practitioners from the Lushan District, were detained as they clarified the truth to the public. All their neighbours were sympathetic because they knew all these practitioners were kind-hearted people.

1. Nanchun Town's Policemen's Criminal Acts

Pingdu City, Shandong Province

On November 21, 2001 three Dafa practitioners, Wang Hongyan, Wang Caixiang and Jiang Chuiping from Dongwangfuzhuang Village, Nanchun Town of Pingdu City, Shandong Province were arrested when they were posting Dafa truth-clarifying flyers. Policemen would not release them unless each practitioner handed over 5,000 Yuan. Because Wang Hongyan's husband who is also a practitioner refused the extortion, on the afternoon of November 24, seven policemen went to his home and took away their tractor. Afterwards, policemen still did not release his wife. The situation about Wang Caixiang and Jiang Chuiping, a husband and wife, is unknown.

1. Criminal Acts of Police Enforcers in the Aimin Police Department

Mudanjiang City, Heilongjiang Province

Since January 10, 2002, personnel from the Aimin Police Department of Mudanjiang City have illegally and relentlessly arrested over 30 Falun Dafa practitioners, destroyed 12 Dafa truth-clarifying material centres, and severely damaged some printing equipment. At present, most of the arrested practitioners are detained on the 3rd floor of the Aimin Police Department and Huanghua Police Station. They are enduring brutal tortures everyday. After the evil deeds committed by Qiao Ping and Chen Liang had been exposed, they persecuted practitioners even more relentlessly. For revenge, they detained practitioners at the police department and brutally tortured them. They tied practitioners to the "Tiger Bench," (see illustration on http://www.clearwisdom.net/emh/articles/2001/11/24/16156.html), tied the practitioner's hands with rope and forcefully and viciously pulled their hands backward.

They tied Dafa practitioner's feet with iron chains and forcefully pulled the feet forward, while one policeman stomped on the practitioner's knees with leather boots. Some practitioners were even tightly tied with a thin nylon cord from the abdomen to the neck while being tied to the "Tiger Bench." They even covered practitioner's head with plastics bags, sometimes even with four bags, in order to suffocate the practitioners. For example, policeman Chen Liang and some of his cronies tied female Dafa practitioner Cao Yingchun on the metal chair for three days. They didn't allow her to sleep and beat her so badly that her chest was injured. She is now released for medical treatment. The above-mentioned are just a few torture methods that the policemen used.

2. Laws Made by Jiang's Criminal Regime: It's a Crime to Help Others Buy Train Tickets

On February 1, practitioner Zheng Jianxin was tried at Wuchang District Court in Wuhan City, and the "charges" against him was that he helped Falun Gong practitioners to buy 20 train tickets to Beijing, and unfurled banner(s) in Tiananmen Square on October 5, 2000. The court twists the law and tries to deceive the people!
