• Crimes Committed at "Sunshine Work Station" in Changzhou City, Jiangsu Province

  2008-05-29
  The 610 Office in Changzhou City, Jiangsu Province, pursues the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) regime's directives to persecute Falun Gong. They use all kinds of excuses to arrest and detain practitioners. They employ people who have already been brainwashed to brainwash others. They entice them with a certain amount of profit to attempt to "transform" practitioners who have been detained. Those who went astray and were brainwashed have themselves been confined in forced labour camps and many even tortured. They know exactly how it feels to be tortured. After they went astray, they copied the methods used against them and employed them at brainwashing centres, strengthening the persecution.

• In China, People with Noble Conscience are Locked Up While Corrupt Officials Run Free

  2008-05-26
  A colleague of mine, a man now in his 70s, worked for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) regime for decades. He was recently arrested and imprisoned simply because he wrote a few words on a wall: "Falun Gong is good". Immediately after Mr. Wang was locked up, the 610 Office unlawfully searched his house and found some materials exposing the persecution of Falun Gong. Officials are demanding that Mr. Wang tell them where he got these materials. The CCP is notorious for the cruel means used in extorting a confession through torture. I cannot even imagine what horrible torture this man in his 70s is going through. It saddens me greatly to even think about it.
