When we returned to our cells from the workshop on the evening of April 29th, 2008, I could hardly breathe. I opened the window, which was beside my bed, and tried to let in some air. Zhang Bo saw it, and ordered me to close the window, even when I told her that I had difficulty breathing. She viciously said, “Go ahead and suffocate. If you die, I don’t care.” "

• Further Information about the Staged Tiananmen Square Self-immolation Incident

  2011-02-15
  Ten years ago in January 2001, I was wanted by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) because I practise Falun Gong. In order to avoid the persecution I left my hometown and went to Beijing. Several of my relatives and friends were officials in the CCP’s Political and Judiciary Committee and public security system. Therefore, my family often received inside information from them. During our phone conversation that day, my family anxiously and repeatedly warned me, “Do not go to Tiananmen Square on Chinese New Year's Day. A relative who works as an official in the public security system said that Falun Gong practitioners would ‘set themselves on fire’ and that the government knows about the plan in advance and would wait in Tiananmen Square."
