• Police Brutality Suspected in Death of Elderly Dafa Practitioner Ms. Lu Tianyun of Hubei Province

  2005-10-03
  65-year-old Dafa practitioner Ms. Lu Tianyun went missing from a square in Xiangyang County on November 18th 2003. A day later, a witness said that he'd seen the police arrest an elderly lady who was practising Falun Gong in the square the day before. Later, police claimed that they'd found the body of a woman in the pool of the square on November 19th and it was immediately cremated as an unidentified body. Among the articles the police admitted to finding on Lu Tianyun were some Dafa leaflets exposing the persecution, indicating that the police were aware that Lu Tianyuan was a Falun Gong practitioner. On the basis of this evidence, it's impossible that the police had nothing to do with Lu Tianyun's death.

• Women's Labour Camp of Fujian Province Made Huge Profits Selling Practitioners' Blood

  2005-10-03
  Every now and then, the guards in the Women's Labour Camp of Fujian Province would draw a large volume of blood from the Falun Dafa practitioners, who had already become very frail from the brutal tortures. The loss of blood further sabotaged the practitioners' health, and meanwhile, the labour camp would make huge profits selling their blood. For the practitioners who did not cooperate, inmates would forcefully draw blood from them. One time, Ms. Cuan Saizhu's mouth and nose were sealed with sealing tape by brigade leaders. The skin on her cheek came off with the tape when the sealing tape was pulled off. It was too brutal to watch.
