• Letter from a Practitioner's Mother to a Prosecutor in Henan Province

  2004-02-26
  'Imprisoning Wu for more than a two-year illegal extension and unwilling to release him, the labour camp insisted on forcing him to "be transformed". According to my personal experience, after my son started practising Falun Gong, he learned to become a good person. After that, he became very healthy, and became very gentle and docile as well. Furthermore, he also worked more earnestly. I do not understand what could be wrong with this? He hasn't harmed anyone. Certainly he hasn't harmed society. He is an extremely sensible and rational person. I wonder what they want to "transform" him into?'
