Four Practitioners from Tianjin, Jiangsu, Hubei and Liaoning Provinces Missing for Years

Practitioner Mr. Song Zhishan from Tianjin City Missing after Being Detained in Ninghe County Detention Centre

Practitioner Mr. Song Zhishan, 63, was from Xi village, Ningtai Town, Ninghe County, Tianjin City. In October 1999, on a trip to Beijing to appeal for Dafa, he was captured and detained in Ninghe County Detention Centre for over a month. He was again arrested in December 2000 when he went to Beijing to speak out for justice and was subsequently sentenced to three years in prison. During his incarceration in Liyuantao Prison, Tianjin City, he suffered brutal torture because of his refusal to "transform¹." In December 2003 he walked out of the prison, but at the time he looked like a skeleton. In November 2004, while he was teaching a new practitioner the exercises, Tianjin Public Security personnel, along with the local police, were tipped off by the son of the new practitioner. They jumped over the fence, broke through the windows of his house, and confiscated many Dafa books and informational materials. Soon afterward, he was detained in the Ninghe County Detention Centre and was forbidden any visits from his family. There is no news on his current situation.

Since the exposure of organ harvesting from Falun Dafa practitioners, Mr. Song's family has been worried about his safety. They are concerned that he might have been one of the live organ harvesting victims. We ask the international community to push for an investigation.

Practitioner Ms. Zhu Xingfang from Jiangsu Province Missing for Three Years

Ms. Zhu Xingfang, in her 40s, was from Xugongqiao Second Group, Huaqiao Town, Kunshan City, Jiangsu Province. In 2003, her husband came home and could not find her. It has been three years and her husband and relatives continue to look for her. Please let us know if anybody has information on her.

Practitioner Ms. Lu Huabao from Puqi City, Hubei Province, Missing for Five Years

Ms. Lu Huabao, 52, was an employee of the Puqi City Textile Mill in Hubei Province. She lived close to the mill. She went missing five years ago. Her husband has since passed away. Her child is the only one left in the family.

Practitioner Ms. Wang Xianzhen from Liaoning Province Missing for Two Years

Ms. Wang Xianzhen, 57, born in 1950, is from Benxi City and worked at the Steel Rolling Factory of Benxi Steel Corp. She rented a place in the Pingshan District because some changes were to be made to her house. Her salary was terminated by her employer before she went missing. Her friends said that she has been missing for two years. Her family said that she has been missing since September 2005. They suspect that she is being detained. Her husband works in Beijing and has reported her missing to the authorities.
