Ms. Zhou Yongping Tortured by the First Division of Changchun Public Security Bureau
2006-09-18My name is Ms. Zhou Yongping. Since I persisted in practising Falun Dafa and following the principles of "Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance," I was brutally persecuted by police from the First Division of Changchun Public Security Bureau. They tortured me by making me sit on a Tiger Bench, making me wear only underwear while staying outside, and beating my head as if it were a punching bag. One guard said to me, "If you do not obey us, we will torture you to death. No one knows where this place is and you were secretly arrested. There is a big pit behind this house. After your death, we will bury you in the pit and no one will know about it." -

A Group of Practitioners I Keep Thinking About
2006-09-17After the evidence of organ-harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners was disclosed to the world, I was reminded of a group of practitioners who were taken to a mental hospital by the police at the end of 1999. There were at least twenty of them from all over the country. Where are they today? How are they? 1n 1999, many Dafa practitioners went to Beijing to speak about the facts of Falun Dafa to the central government leaders. However, agents from the local public security bureau blocked the appeals offices. Very soon thereafter, two buses appeared, and the Falun Gong practitioners were loaded into them, and I was surprised when we were abruptly taken far away and put in jail. Those of us who refused to identify ourselves were detained. -

My Persecution Experiences in Prison
2006-09-15I am a Falun Dafa practitioner living in Fushun City. In July 1999, all the newspapers started defaming Falun Dafa and Teacher Li [Li Hongzhi, the founder of Falun Dafa]. In October when I went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Dafa, I was arrested and sent to the Dashagou Detention Centre in Qingyuan. In the evening, the warden instructed two inmates to tie the cords of a power generator around my wrists, and then started the machine to torture me with high-voltage electricity. Next they tied the cords around my ankles and shocked me. My whole body became contorted and I fell onto the floor, but the inmates pulled me up and continued the torture.
