• Husband and Wife Practitioners Han Xianji and Ren Guirong Suffer Persecution in Nanchong City, Sichuan Province

  2007-11-04
  In August 2007, Chinese Communist Party (CCP) officials in the local government in Shendian Township started a new round of persecution of Falun Gong practitioners.

Local government officials declared that whoever reported a practitioner would get a 200 yuan reward; whoever turned in a Falun Gong poster would get a 100 yuan reward; and whoever found out about a Falun Gong gathering would get a reward of up to 1,000 yuan.

• The Persecution of Group 5 in Shijiazhuang Forced Labour Camp

  2007-11-01
  Falun Gong practitioners have been imprisoned and persecuted in Group 5 of Shijiazhuang Forced Labour Camp since 2000. Those in charge have used violence in brainwashing practitioners and tortured them both mentally and physically. The so-called "transformation" by the Chinese Communist Party is, without exception, violently forced on practitioners. In order to encourage wardens to be more violent, an internal policy that awarded the wardens a minimum of 800 yuan for each practitioner they "transformed" was enacted. For transforming the "focused" practitioners, the award can be over a thousand or even over ten thousand yuan each. In October 2004, Qie Lili was tortured and brainwashed with the "flying eagle" torture. She was deprived of sleep for 10 days and at the end she showed the symptoms of a heart attack. She went on hunger strikes several times to protest the persecution but was brutally force-fed every time.
