    Since March 29th, the 610 Office in Xinjiang has arrested twenty Falun Dafa practitioners and sent them to the "Transformation Base" in the Banfanggou Public Health Centre in Urumqi County. It is said that the local officials hold different levels of meetings.

The Falun Dafa practitioners have been on a hunger strike for twenty-six days. They are being injected with unknown drugs every day.
  • Please Follow Closely Harbin University Practitioner Mr. Zhao Yan's Situation

    "I became very anxious when I heard the recent news that Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Zhao Yan was arrested and will have to stand trial. While Falun Dafa was being slandered in the media, Mr. Zhao remained firm in his beliefs. The detention centre police stationed at the university continually harassed us. They confined us to "brainwash" all of us against Falun Gong. The police also persecuted him while he was imprisoned in the detention centre simply because he practised publicly with other practitioners. I can scarcely remember how many tribulations he has had to endure."

His paralysed father soon passed away, as he could not cope with the news about his son being brutally tortured. Cai's ten-year-old son was no longer able to receive his parent's love and caring and therefore lived in great hardship. He was deprived of his right to go to school.
  • National Security Division Agents from Yanji City Unconstitutionally Arrested Many Practitioners in February 2006

    At 9:00 a.m. on February 28th, 2006, police started a large-scale arrest. Practitioner Xiao Deng was taken to the National Security Division. She refused to identify herself (due to the persecution policy of implicating family members, friends, and workplaces, practitioners often refuse to give their names). Four police officers handcuffed Xiao Deng with her arms behind her back and tried to force her to kneel down. When Xiao Deng refused to do so, they held her four limbs and pushed her on the ground. They kept slapping her face and viciously beat her throat, making her throat swell and until she was unable to speak. When they still didn't get what they wanted, they changed to another torture.
  • Ms. Zhang Lixin's Persecution Experiences in the Jilin Women's Prison

    My name is Zhang Lixin and I am 63 years old. I was a doctor. Because I practised Falun Gong, I was sentenced to ten years and detained in the Jilin Women's Prison from November 2002 up to today. The prison officials told me, "All Falun Gong practitioners who come here must write "three statements" (to renounce Falun Dafa). No sleep is allowed if these are not finished. If you still refuse to write, all prisoners will be forced to do long-term standing with you. You will be beaten and verbally abused by the prisoners until you write all three statements." I patiently told them, "Falun Gong teaches one to cultivate the principles of Truthfulness, Compassion and Forbearance. We are innocent."

    Because Ms. Wang Guifeng resisted the persecution, the guards forced her to stand around the clock for over twenty days. Her feet and legs swollen and she could not stand still.

There are many other practitioners like Ms. Wang who have suffered or are suffering the same torture.

  • Abuse of Four Falun Dafa Practitioners at the Shanxi Women's Forced Labour Camp

    Practitioners have firmly resisted "reforming" and are being savagely abused as a result. They are deprived of personal freedom and are only permitted four hours of sleep per day. They are constantly watched, and the guards order drug addicts to physically abuse and mentally torment them. The practitioners are forced to do slave labour for between 15 and 18 hours per day. They are forced to take drugs and go to hospitals when they are not ill. When the Dafa practitioners went on a hunger strike, the persecutors force-fed them.

Because he wrote that he would firmly cultivate Falun Dafa, Mr. Wu was sent to the "Restricted Administrative Area," where guards insulted him and forced him to do military drills. He was confined for 64 days. He still had bruises on the back of one foot after he returned to his former squadron.
  • Where Are You, My Loved One? Part I

    "Since March 2006, the secret Sujiatun death camp run by agents of the CCP was exposed, and the whole world was shocked. Since 2001, Thousands of practitioners were held at this camp. Most of them have had their hearts, kidneys, corneas and skin removed and sold for profit before they were taken to the crematorium to destroy the evidence! Sujiatun is only one of 36 camps in China. Investigation by the World Organisation to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong (WOIPFG) shows that live organ harvesting and sale has happened and still is happening in many places in China including Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Shandong Province, Liaoning Province and Guangdong Province."

  • My Experience of Being Imprisoned Three Times at Heizuizi Forced Labour Camp

    "When I was taken to Heizuizi Forced Labour Camp, seven or eight police officers dragged me to the "discipline room" to beat me up. They pushed me down to force-feed me with drugs and injections. They humiliated me by taking away the belt from my trousers. I had to hold my trousers up with my hands. They dragged me around by my hair. Guard Zhang Xiaohui said to me, "If you do not transform, I will torture you. You will wish to die." They laughed at me hysterically, made lewd remarks towards me and tortured me for over an hour."
