• Brutal Torture Suffered by Ke Xingguo and Other Practitioners at the Beijiao No. 4 Prison in Shijiazhuang City, Hebei Province

  2007-06-28
  In order to cover up the torture, guards locked me in a solitary cell, using the excuse that "Ke Xingguo does not participate in doing any labour." In March and October of 2003, they applied physical and mental torture on me on the second floor of the reception building. I was restrained for eight or nine days and was not allowed to sleep. They used a rope and lifted either my arms or one of my legs in the air. They also used a special torture device: an iron ring welded to an iron plate. Using a very short rope, they tied me on one side to handcuffs and the other side to the iron ring. I could not sit up or lie down. For the flimsiest excuse they would beat me. This torture was continued for weeks. My legs became numb during this period.

• 487 Villagers in Kangping County, Liaoning Province Appeal for the Release of Practitioners Sun Lianjiang and Jing Yong'an

  2007-06-27
  Our father taught us how to become good people by his verbal instructions and his exemplary conduct. He always strictly required us to be kind to others, to be polite, to do more good deeds, and to refrain from doing bad deeds. Especially after our father started to practice Falun Gong he taught us to conduct ourselves according to Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance. When our father not only recovered from his illness but opened an electronics repair shop to serve our neighbourhood, we were all very happy. All our fellow villagers liked his service, and our family started to have a steady income. In the past few days that our father has been detained, many people have come to request repair services. We cannot help crying when they come to ask for help, only to realise that our father, who presided over the repair shop, is not there. We miss our father dearly.
