• Please Continue to Try to Rescue Practitioner Ms. Yang Xiuling from Henan Province

  2007-01-18
  Ms Yang Xiuling was seized by personnel from national security at the beginning of May 2006. Yu Yiyun, head of the 610 Office in Zhoukou City, bragged that he would sentence Yang Xiuling. She was sentenced by Chuanhui District Court to 10 years, but the prison officers refused to accept her. Her case was rejected and retried by Zhoukou Intermediate court due to "insufficient evidence" on December 15th. Her husband was deceived by the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) lies and was frightened by their high-pressure terror tactics. In fear of being persecuted also, he divorced her.

• Persecution of Practitioners in Shiling Prison, Siping City, Jilin Province - (Part 1)

  2007-01-17
  The staff at Siping Shiling Prison, from the top to the bottom levels, put much effort into the goal of "destroying practitioners physically," unless they renounce their belief in Falun Gong. Yet, they show a completely different image to the world beyond the prison gate. When a Falun Gong practitioner is first transferred from another prison to Siping, they give the practitioner the impression of having escaped the brutality experienced in other prisons. However once they discover that the practitioner cannot be "transformed," they show their brutal side. They then use all kinds of torture methods to the point of "physical destruction."

• Drug Poisoning - A Method of Torture Often Used by the Chinese Communist Party

  2007-01-15
  In order to quickly "reform" the practitioners, destroy the practitioners’ willpower and justify the persecution, the officials at detention centres, labour camps and prisons where practitioners are held against the law often resort to preposterous tactics. They secretly inject sleeping practitioners with unknown drugs or put poisonous drugs in their food, which results in general malaise, difficulty walking, stunted speech, rapid decline of reaction and memory, and organ damage. Some practitioners suffer from a complete mental breakdown or cannot wake up from comatose sleep and have disordered thinking.
