  • A Case of the Chinese Communist Party Damaging Family Relationships

Her family watched her twenty-four hours a day and did not allow her to study the Falun Dafa books or do the exercises. They destroyed her Dafa materials. In addition, they recorded speeches defaming Dafa and made her listen to the recordings repeatedly. They beat her, swore at her and even taped her mouth shut. Mrs. Zhao's son threw her out of the house at 6:00 a.m. one morning. She is now homeless.

This way, if problems arise or when they are questioned by the practitioner's families and the public, they can shirk their responsibilities and blame the drug addict inmates by claiming, "We don't know what is going on among the inmates." They even lie, saying that they will punish the drug addicts who beat practitioners.

Such activities were followed by forced written critique reports that must include words attacking Falun Gong. Since the inmates and guards all had an interest in seeing Dafa practitioners complying with their demands, they used any kind of method, even torture, to get the practitioners to comply. One of these tortures meant the practitioner had to stand from 6:00 a.m. until 11:00 p.m. except for meals. This was done for several days in a row, leading to severe swelling of the legs.

  • I Narrowly Escaped the Chinese Communist Party's Evil Persecution and Am a Witness to Its Crimes

Her body is still at the Shengying Crematorium. I saw scars and wounds all over my mother's body and a bright-red fresh wound at her throat.

  • The Wicked CCP Has Taken the Lives of Three of My Family Members

    "These lawless officials not only persecuted me but also persecuted my relatives. First, they often had my husband come to their offices. They urged him to hit or verbally abuse me and to forbid me to practise or go out. My husband knew that I was a good wife and loving mother, and knew that Falun Dafa is good. Therefore he did not listen to them. The wicked Chinese Communist Party (CCP) officials eventually caused him to have a fatal heart attack. My husband and I had been happily married for decades. His death shocked me. Soon afterwards, my older sister died as a result of the CCP-created terror."
