  • Qingdao City Judicial Bureau Violates the Law by Forbidding Lawyers to Represent Falun Gong Practitioners

    Among these 103 law offices and 1,468 lawyers registered in Qingdao, no lawyer could be found to dare to defend the innocent Falun Gong practitioners who pled not guilty. On the morning of January 25th, 2006, Ou Yunjie's father, Ou Zhaolin, who is an ordinary person with no law knowledge, had to defend his daughter and wife who pled not guilty. Although the father of innocent couple Sun Hong and Min Huirong went through great difficulty to find an lawyer for them, the Qingdao judicial bureau exerted pressure and asked the lawyer to withdraw from the case, threatening that the lawyer must not handle this case or represent those who pled not guilty.
  • Remembering My Mother Wu Yuxian

    During the Lantern Festival, I could no longer restrain my repressed sadness and anxiety. My mother, a Falun Dafa practitioner, had passed away on February 9th, 2006 due to the evil Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) persecution. Recalling my mother's life, many thoughts and feelings surfaced. Even after my mother was persecuted to death, they still wouldn't quit, and continued to bring more pressure and cause more trouble. In addition, there are still countless families that are suffering the same kind of cruel persecution in China today.
  • Recalling the Past Several Years of Persecution of Changchun Practitioner Mr. Wang Hongge

    Falun Gong practitioner Mr. Wang Hongge has been suffering from brutal persecution since November 2000 simply because he remains steadfast in Dafa. The mistreatment and abuse he has had to endure under the persecution include torture and forced confessions. Tiebei Detention Centre police officer Liu Huibin in Changchun even stated, "I am ordering you to confess! You have to confess! I am telling you to admit guilt! You have to do it, even if you refuse. On this bench, if I say you raped your mother, you will have to admit it!"
  • The Evil Concentration Camps Have Existed for a Long Time

    On January 1st, 2001, practitioner Xiaoyun was arrested in Tiananmen Square when appealing for Falun Dafa. Policemen used all their might, but they still could not force her to speak her name. At around 3 a.m. the next morning, all of the arrested practitioners were suddenly gathered together and pushed onto a huge bus. Policemen on the bus said something strange: "We are sending you to two places. One of them is the Masanjia Labour Camp. If you still won't 'reform', we will send you somewhere else." Upon reaching a certain location, a very formal procedure was undertaken. Police officers from two departments stood along the two sides of the road. Ever since then, many Falun Dafa practitioners have been missing.

Due to the long-term mental and physical damage, Ms. Wang Xiulian is now suffering from a mental breakdown. She often talks to herself, crying and laughing, wears yarn or toilet tissue in her hair, and so on. She was so healthy before the persecution, and followed Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance, but now her situation is tragic and pitiful.
  • Appeal to Rescue Practitioner Ms. Wu Jingjuan from Guangdong Province

    On January 20th, 2006, practitioner Ms. Wu Jingjuan, who has been "illegally detained" in the Guangdong Province Kedong County Detention Centre, filed an appeal letter to the Jieyang City Intermediate People's Court, refuting the decision made in January by the Kedong Court to sentence her to three years. Ms. Wu Jingjuan is now detained in Kedong County Detention Centre. We appeal to people around the world for support and rescue efforts.
  • Cruelty in Henan Province Forced Labour Camp

    In January 2004, Mr. Ma Lucheng, a practitioner from Jiaozuo, Henan Province, was taken to the Third Forced Labour Camp in Henan Province after he had already been on a 43 day hunger-strike in a detention centre. On the same evening, Jia Zhigang, the squadron captain of the third division, forced a pot of boiling water into Mr. Ma's stomach, causing him immeasurable pain. Director Liu pretended to be nice and took him to the hospital. In fact the officials tried to recruit him in brainwashing other practitioners, which was rejected by Mr. Ma.
  • Persecution-Related Deaths of Twenty-four More Practitioners Verified in February (Photos)

    Civil channels in February 2006 have verified the torture deaths of twenty-four Falun Gong practitioners from Mainland China. Since the Chinese Communist Regime under former dictator Jiang Zemin's directions began persecuting Falun Gong on July 20th, 1999, a total of 2,838 practitioners have been verified to have been tortured to death.

  • Practitioner Ms. Li Ping Brutally Tortured at Tianjin Women's Labour Camp

    Due to the non-stop arrests, imprisonment and torture, 32-year-old Ms Li Ping was severely devastated both physically and psychologically. A once young, healthy woman with a promising future, Ms. Li has been reduced to a weak and mentally disoriented person. Because she shouted, "Falun Dafa is good," Ms. Li was put in a confinement cell, where she was deprived of sleep. She was not allowed to go to the dining hall to have meals, nor was she allowed water to drink. She could not get in touch with anybody, except the people who monitored her around the clock. She could not send letters to her family.
  • Family Members of Falun Dafa Practitioners Persecuted at Baimalong Labour Camp Appeal to the International Community

    We had previously exposed the atrocities at the Baimalong Forced Labour Camp on September 1st, 2005. The labour camp received many phone calls and faxes sent from overseas to condemn their crimes. The atrocities did not stop, however, but escalated. The labour camp authorities and the CCP agents launched a frenzied retaliation against the people who signed the public letter. Falun Gong practitioner Zhang Yunlan was tortured until she had a mental breakdown, after which her family took her home. In November 2005, the CCP agents hit and killed her with a car in order to destroy evidence of their crimes.
  • Even the Guards Call Guangdong Sanshui Women's Labour Camp a "Hell on Earth"

    Guangdong Sanshui Women's Labour Camp is a place that even the guards call a "hell on earth." The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has the guards adopt all kinds of horrible and vicious methods, such as instigating criminals to abuse Dafa practitioners, not allowing sleep or toilet visits, and forcing practitioners to squat for unbearably long periods of time.
  • The Persecution that Practitioner Mr. Li Huimin from Hebei Province, Endured before His Death

    Mr. Li Huimin had suffered five years of physical and mental torture. He also underwent intensive brainwashing and slave labour for his refusal to give up the practice of Falun Gong. All three members of his family were arrested. When his home was ransacked, they found a written indictment against Jiang Zemin, the former head of the CCP< and a letter to Jizhou City officials exposing the persecution. They thought his daughter had written it, so they tortured her. This long-term pressure eventually took a toll on Mr. Li's health. He developed high blood pressure and became very weak and depressed upon his release in 2005. He died on the morning of February 5th, 2006.

  • The CCP Central Committee Secretly Sends Officials to Sujiatun

    After the Sujiatun Concentration Camp was exposed on the Internet, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) Central Committee secretly sent people to Sujiatun on the evening of March 13th, 2006.

  • Falun Dafa Practitioner Mr. Ma Qinghai Force-fed Concentrated Saline Solution at Chifeng Prison

    On October 31st, 2005, Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Ma Qinghai was unlawfully sentenced to nine years in prison, where he has been brutally tortured. He has been on a hunger strike lasting 130 days in order to protest the persecution. A guard ordered about seven inmates to force-feed Mr. Ma through a contaminated rubber tube. The inmates inserted and pulled out the tube a dozen times until blood gushed from Ma Qinghai's nose and mouth and he lost consciousness. Due to the unbearable pain, Ma Qinghai bit the tube in half and part of the tube is now lodged inside his throat, obstructing his breathing.
