Practitioner Ms. Li Ping Brutally Tortured at Tianjin Women's Labour Camp
2006-03-27Due to the non-stop arrests, imprisonment and torture, 32-year-old Ms Li Ping was severely devastated both physically and psychologically.

Family Members of Falun Dafa Practitioners Persecuted at Baimalong Labour Camp Appeal to the International Community
2006-03-26We 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. -

The Persecution that Practitioner Mr. Li Huimin from Hebei Province, Endured before His Death
2006-03-26Mr. 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. -
