Over the past few years the guards at Jinzhou Forced Labor Camp have been using extremely cruel types of torture to persecute Falun Gong practitioners. In addition to various torture methods they commonly use to torment inmates, they have invented new barbaric torture methods specifically targeting Falun Gong practitioners. Demonstrated below are some of these torture methods that they have used against the practitioners.

Torture method No.1: Forced brainwashing with a practitioner sitting on a small chair

Figure 3

Guards cuff a practitioner's hands behind the back and to a bed frame. While kept in this position, some guards monitor the practitioner, some guards read slanderous articles directly to the practitioner, and others stick ear buds into the practitioner's ears and increase the volume of the tape player in order to force the practitioner to listen to the slander. If the practitioner sleeps or simply closes their eyes, the guards will brutally beat and shock the practitioner with electric batons. After twenty-four hours of torture in this way, the practitioner feels enormous pain. Their four limbs will be numb and the ears will be ringing. In particular, some practitioners collapsed mentally and were unable to stand up after this torture.

Figure 6

The four limbs of the practitioner are stretched out and tied to the four corners of an ice-cold metal bed with the practitioner lying on the bed on his back. The practitioner is unable to move and deprived of food, water, and restroom use. This treatment usually lasts from several hours up to more than a dozen days, making the practitioner unable to walk or move afterwards because the whole body is numb. This type of cruel torture causes severe damage to the practitioner both mentally and physically.

A practitioner is forced to stand up, with the arms stretched out and tied to the metal bars of the bed and the legs spread apart. The guards and some criminal inmates (under the instruction of the guards) take turns beating the practitioner, kicking the practitioner's abdomen, forehead, back, face and mouth. They also smash chairs on the practitioner and burn the practitioners' fingers with a cigarette lighter. Some practitioners have lost teeth, had their eardrums broken, suffered severe burn marks on their fingers or had deformed fingers after the torture. With this method, the guards tortured practitioner Jia Jingwen and broke the handcuffs. They kicked practitioner Li Zhongjie's mouth and made him unable to close his mouth for a very long time. With the same method, Guo Weibin, Ma Jiuqing, Shen Chuang, Jiao Zhihua, and An Qingzhong beat practitioner Li Zhongjie and Zuo Zhongyou for over an hour, and caused them to feel indescribable pain in their organs.

This is a torture method that the authorities at the Jinzhou Forced Labor Camp frequently use against Falun Gong practitioners. First they stop a practitioner from having any sleep for a few days. Then they cuff the practitioner's hands behind the back and tie the practitioner's legs into the double-crossed posture with a rope. Then they step on the tied-up legs and knock the practitioner down so that his/her back is flat on the floor. A few guards then use the electric batons to shock the bottom of the practitioner's feet and the breastbone. Another two guards twist and beat the practitioner's head, and turn the practitioner's body upside down to make it easier for the other guards to shock the sensitive areas of the body with the electric batons. After being tortured by this method, a practitioner will not be able to walk for months.

A practitioner is forced to double-cross the legs. Then the guards kick the knees, and two of them tie the two legs together with a fat rope and forcefully pull the two ends of the rope in opposite directions. Another guard presses the practitioner's back to prevent the practitioner from moving. In addition, they insert a wooden stick under the practitioner's hips to increase the pain. They force the practitioner to sit in such a posture for a long time. Under this torture method, some practitioners have had their legs broken or could not move their legs for a very long time afterwards.

This is one of the common torture methods used at the Jinzhou Forced Labor Camp against newly arrested Falun Gong practitioners. The following demonstrates exactly how the guards continuously beat into unconsciousness and severely injured three Falun Gong practitioners at the Jinzhou Labor Camp.

Step 1: In a small room, one guard pulled the first practitioner's arms from both sides of a vertical bar of the iron bed so that the practitioner could not move. Then three other guards brutally beat the practitioner and cut the neck, the back, and the legs of the practitioner with wooden planks until he lost consciousness.

Step 2: Taking the second practitioner into the room, two guards started to beat the practitioner with wooden planks until the practitioner fell down. The practitioner's back and head were injured, but the guards kept up the beating until the practitioner lost consciousness.

Figure 34

Step 3: Taking another practitioner in, one guard seized him by the throat so that the other two could beat his back and legs with big wooden planks until he too lost consciousness. Finally the four guards stepped on the heads, feet, and hands of the three practitioners until they were confident that all three practitioners lost consciousness. With their faces deformed after the brutal beatings, the practitioners had injuries all over their bodies and were not able to move.

Ms. Xie Xiulan, a Falun Gong practitioner from Liaoning Province, has been sent to forced labor camps twice during the last five years because of her belief in Falun Gong. She was detained for four years and four months in total, first at Masanjia Forced Labor Camp and then at Dalian Forced Labor Camp. She was tortured physically and mentally, for example by being hung up by handcuffs, confined in a small cell and forced to sit on an iron chair or stand continuously for eight days. Her legs were tied in a double crossed position with rope, and she was forced to write the three statements. Due to the torture, her weight dropped from 51 kg (about 112 lbs) to 40 kg (about 88 lbs), and she developed symptoms of an ovarian tumor. Ms. Xie escaped from the forced labor camp on July 19, 2005.

The following is Ms. Xie Xiulan's personal testimony of the persecution she suffered in the forced labor camp.

At around 7:30 p.m. on December 6, 2000, I was 200 yards away from my home when a policeman arrested me and took me to the Xinghai Police Station. The police officer asked me whether I practiced Falun Gong. When I answered "yes," two public security officers immediately pushed me and two other practitioners, (Ms. Duan Guilan and Ms. Zhang Xiuhua), into a car. On the following day, I was sent to the Yaojia Detention Center in Nanguanling, Dalian City, and 42 days later, I was sent to the No. 2 Women's Camp of Masanjia Forced Labor Camp where I was persecuted for more than two years.

At about 9 p.m. on December 17, 2001, we were shown the Chinese Central TV's "Focus Talk Show" that slandered Falun Gong. Ms. Shi Shengying, Ms. Sun Jinjun and I left the room, refusing to watch. The labor camp director, Su Jing, then locked me up in a "triangle room."

One day in early March 2002, because I practiced the Falun Gong exercises, a guard put me in a storage room on the first floor, cuffed my hands to an iron bed, and did not allow me to stand or sit. The camp guard ordered the inmates to grab my hair and smash my head on the brick floor. My wrists and forehead bled from the beating. I was then cuffed to a heating pipe and forced to stand there for eight days without sleep.

On April 8, Ms. Song Guixiang, Ms. Hu Ying, Ms. Sun Jinjun and I did not cooperate with the evil. We refused to participate in all activities, and shouted "Falun Dafa is great." The guards kept us inside an iron gate on the first floor, hung up one hand with a rope, and cuffed the other hand to the heating pipe. The guards played recordings that slandered Falun Gong and pasted slanderous posters all over the wall. They were afraid of us shouting, "Falun Dafa is great," so they sealed our mouths with strips of cloth. After a while, the corners of our mouth and our teeth started to bleed. At midnight, we shouted, "Falun Dafa is great."  Su Jing led more than 20 guards to seal our mouths with tape, and dragged us into the small cells where practitioners Ms. Sun Caihong and Ms. Li Liming were already detained. The five small cells were full of practitioners. Every cell had two practitioners. We were cuffed to the tiger bench for 12 days.

On May 13, the forced labor camp played recordings that slandered Falun Gong, and I shouted, "Falun Dafa is great." The chief warden ordered inmates to cover my mouth and punch me in the face. As a result, the bridge of my nose was fractured and it bled profusely.

On July 1, Ms. Shi Shengying and I refused to wear the labor camp uniforms and shouted, "Falun Dafa is great." We were locked up in a small cell for a month, and were forced to sit on the iron chair with both hands cuffed. As a result my feet and legs became swollen and deformed, and yellow fluid oozed out of my toes. I was not released from that position until August 2.

On August 22, the forced labor camp held an illegal trial, and we refused to attend. The group leader ordered inmates to seal our mouths shut with tape and pulled us to the meeting place. As soon as we shouted, "Falun Dafa is great," two guards came up to pull our hair and twist our arms. They pushed us to the floor in a room on the first floor. Every room had eight or nine Falun Gong practitioners. Several rooms downstairs, all with iron doors, were full. On that day, practitioners Ms. Li Liming, Ms. Sun Caihong, and Ms. Li Dongqing were sent to the Dabei Prison in Shenyang City.

On January 22, 2003, group leader Wang Xiaofeng and a deputy leader talked me into going behind an iron door on the first floor. Once we got there, they tied my legs into a double-crossed position. When I could no longer endure the pain after three hours, I was forced to write three statements against my will. Later I awakened and immediately announced that all words and acts against Falun Gong were null and void. The group leader again dragged me by the hair and pulled me to the room that housed the water pump. They pushed me to the ground, and I lay there for the whole morning. Later I was dragged to the toilet, where the guards ordered the inmates to take turns to watch me. I took the opportunity to clarify the truth to them. After 3:00 p.m., they pulled me to a storage room on the first floor and did not allow me to use the restroom. At night, the guards ordered the inmates to tie me up with rope and hung me up to the heating pipe on the ceiling with my feet off the ground for more than three hours. I could not breathe and had to wet my pants.

Before April 2003, when we refused to do Taichi as ordered, the guards tortured us by hanging us up and exposing us to cold temperature barefoot. Practitioners Wang Yulan, Huang Guifen, Sun Jinjun, Song Guixiang, Sun Juan, Guo Guixiang, Tao Yuzhen, Hu Ying, Su Ming, Li Gang, Li Guijie and I were persecuted this way.

I was detained in Masanjia Forced Labor Camp for more than two years and eleven months (twenty days short of three years), and was released on November 17, 2003.

On March 30, 2004, I clarified the truth and distributed materials in the country areas of Xinjin County, Dasa, Hongshi and Cuigou. I was reported, and three police officers and a driver carried me into a car at 10:00 a.m. on March 31 and detained me at the local Dasa Police Station. I was sent to the Xinjin County Detention Center at 6:00 p.m., and subsequently held there for 43 days. During the detention I had a stomachache and was sent to the Xinjin County Tumor Hospital for a check-up on April 29. The ultrasound showed that I had a tumor on my left ovary. The police walked me right out of the hospital and claimed that it was only an inflammation. I was then sent to the Dalian Forced Labor Camp.

At Dalian Forced Labor Camp, the guards brutally tortured Falun Gong practitioners. Torture methods included the "death bed torture," standing on ice, the "big hang up" (1), locking up in a small cell, sleep deprivation and so on. I refused to stand up, so the guards ordered inmates Da Wangcong and others to beat me in the storage room. They kicked my chest and head, kicked me to the ground, deprived me of sleep at night, and forced me to remain standing for four days straight. By this point my mind was muddled and filled with fear, and I wrote a statement against my will.

While in Dalian Forced Labor Camp, I had the symptoms of heart disease many times. The women's section of the Dalian Forced Labor Camp disassembled on October 28, 2004, and I was sent to the 2nd Station of Masanjia Forced Labor Camp again. On November 8, I declared that all words and acts against Falun Gong were null and void, and kept practicing Falun Gong.

In the 2nd Station of the camp, practitioners refused to perform labor or wear uniforms. They did not cooperate with the evil at all, and opposed the persecution and requested immediate release. The guards detained us on the second floor of the 1st Group. As soon as we shouted, "Falun Dafa is great" or practiced the exercises, they dragged us into a small cell, beat us, cursed at us, and forbade us from going downstairs or to take showers. We opposed the persecution, clarified the truth, and went on hunger strikes.

During the detention, I was locked up in a small cell twice for shouting "Falun Dafa is great." Later the hospital found that I had a tumor of 2 inches in diameter in my left ovary. I said that it was caused by the persecution. I had no illness before I was arrested. I was 112 lbs when I arrived there and dropped to 88lbs after several years of persecution. A police team leader said that they did not arrest me. I said, "You can release me then. You know I am a good person. Why am I being detained and persecuted?" He remained silent.

On July 19, 2005, I managed to escape from the den of evil and I keep on practicing Falun Gong and tell the truth to the people.

(1) The "Big Hang Up" - There are two forms to this torture: The first is when both hands are cuffed behind the back and only the toes are touching the ground, one is hung by a rope that is tied to the metal window frames. The second is when one hand is cuffed to one bunk bed and the other hand to another bed, and the two beds are pulled in the opposite directions. It feels extremely painful as the body is pulled apart.  See illustration on /emh/articles/2004/11/17/54624.html.

Since October 1, 2005, Falun Gong practitioner Bai Shaohua, whose family members were arrested in Beijing, has been in severe danger after being punitively force-fed. He was sent to the public security department hospital for emergency treatment twice and his situation is extremely serious. Bai Shaohua's older brother Bai Xiaojun was persecuted to death in 2000.

In this large scale assault on Falun Gong practitioners, Bai Shaohua, together with Liu Yujian, Yan Jiguo and others have endured severe persecution.

Mr. Bai Shaohua, aged 34, graduated from the Department of Economics at the Chinese People's University. He and his brother are talented at calligraphy and playing musical instruments, and both of them are well-educated. In 1994, Mr. Bai's family participated in Teacher's seminar in Harbin and started practicing Falun Gong. After graduation, Bai Shaohua was employed by the New Otter Corporation in Beijing. Under his influence, all of the people in his department began practicing Falun Gong, and in 1998 they made two million yuan more in profit than the previous year. For that reason the general manager decided to give priority to Falun Gong practitioners when hiring employees.

After the persecution started in 1999, Mr. Bai's family received a great deal of attention from the CCP. Li Lanqing, the former head of the 610 Office, gave special instructions to severely punish him. In the last several years, Bai Shaohua was separated from his family, and his family members were subjected to having their houses ransacked, incarceration and brainwashing.

Bai Shaohua's 70-year-old mother lost her eyesight during detention. No sooner had her eyesight recovered after her release than she was arrested again while distributing Falun Gong flyers. Mr. Bai's wife, who was pregnant then, was also sent to a prison thousands of miles away.

Bai Shaohua was wanted by the police nationwide, and they even set up a special team to track him down. On April 4, 2002, Bai Shaohua was arrested again and subjected to severe persecution. In the Beijing Law Training Center, he resisted the persecution with great willpower. He held a hunger strike for more than 100 days there and forestalled the authorities' attempt to escalate the persecution. Without sufficient "evidence" to determine the sentence, the authorities sent him to the Tuanhe Labor Camp.

In the Tuanhe Labor Camp, Bai Shaohua was brave in exposing and stopping the police's evil deeds. He was once bound to a death bed for long periods and forbidden to use the toilet.

On October 14, 2004, Bai Shaohua was released after his sentence was up. However, under the pressure of surveillance, he had to leave home once more. Later, he was monitored while working and had to quit the job. Finally, on orders from high level CCP officials, he and his family were all arrested.

Bai Shaohua's brother Bai Xiaojun was a lecturer at Northeast Normal University. He was a gifted person in many fields. On July 21, 1999, he was detained at Fengtai Stadium in Beijing for appealing for justice for Falun Gong. Here, he was kicked and had his ribs severely injured while trying to stop a policemen's cruelty toward a female practitioner. This process was witnessed by a CCTV anchorman who was also detained there as a Falun Gong practitioner. Bai Xiaojun was sentenced to labor camps twice and was persecuted until he was extremely weak. Because he refused the brainwashing, Bai Xiaojun received an extended sentence in the labor camp, where he was eventually killed.

The CCP's persecution of Falun Gong has been widely denounced by people all over the world. However, Jiang Zemin and Luo Gan have not stopped the persecution. They pay more attention to covering up their deeds so that many people mistakenly believe that the persecution has ended. Bai Shaohua's case is strong evidence that the persecution is still continuing.

While I was clarifying the truth about Falun Gong, I met a woman who had been released from Yaojia Labor Camp. She was a convicted criminal, and she told me about the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners in Yaojia Labor Camp that she had witnessed when she was there.

At Yaojia Labor Camp, the guards tie Falun Gong practitioners with iron chains onto a bed. They don't allow practitioners to use the toilet, leaving them no choice but to relieve themselves on the bed. Then they order the criminals to clean it up. The police make the criminals force-feed Falun Gong practitioners. She also witnessed a guard using needles to pierce each finger of a practitioner.

That woman said that the guards also tried to make her force-feed the Falun Gong practitioners. She told them, "I can clean up after them, but I'd rather die than force-feed them." The guards were not able to force her to do it. She cleaned up after the practitioners every day. She took care of a total of eight Falun Gong practitioners. She said that there are still about 10 practitioners detained there.

There is a scar on her hand. She told me that when she was on trial, the interrogator burned her with a cigarette butt. I asked her how she managed to get out. She said she had no idea. One day, the head of the labor camp asked her if she wanted to go home, and she said, "Of course," so the director released her.

I told her that good is rewarded with good and evil is met with karmic retribution. Because she had righteous thoughts, she treated the Falun Gong practitioners well, and did not force-feed the practitioners, she benefited.

She said that she knows that Falun Gong practitioners are good people. She can recite "Falun Dafa is Good" from Hongyin II, and she can also sing some songs about the truth of Falun Gong. I told her some more facts about the persecution. She said she understood everything I said and she planned to withdraw her membership to all  Chinese Communist Party organizations.

Mr. Nie Feiyao is from Hengyang City and works in Guangzhou. He was arrested twice for distributing truth clarifying materials. He was sent twice to Changsha City, Hunan Province's Xinkaipu Labor Camp for "transformation". He suffered horribly there. Since his release he has been mentally ill. When he was a little more focused and clear-minded, he managed to outline the horrific experience he faced inside the labor camp. Judging from his current condition and physical appearance, it seems that the labor camp injected him with drugs that damaged his nervous system. His wife found his written description of the treatment he experienced and sent it to us to expose the persecution:

"Inside the Xinkaipu Labor Camp, I suffered severe, inhuman persecution. In the beginning, they ordered collaborators to continuously force me to watch video recordings that defamed and vilified Falun Gong. Later they came in groups and in shifts to try to "transform" me with their twisted and evil logic. This continued for about two weeks. When they thought I was wavering in my determination, they intensified their methods of persecution. They forced drug addicts in the jail to assist them. At the peak, they assigned six drug addicts to guard and "transform" me. They restricted my movement and wouldn't allow me to speak. In the end, they resorted to tying me to the bed. Both my hands were tied behind my back and raised as far back as possible. My feet were also securely bound to the bed. My body was tied to the middle of the bed. I couldn't move. My mouth was gagged with dirty socks, to the point of suffocation. I was tied in this position for four days. When they finally untied me, for about a week I was unable to walk. My hands were so numb and weak that I was unable to lift my rice bowl when eating. I became mentally unhinged and forgetful.

My father came from Hengyang City to visit me. They wouldn't allow the visit. They did not even let me know he was there for fear that their evil deeds would be exposed. Their attitude changed when my wife wrote a letter to the labor camp demanding an explanation and my release. At this point they hypocritically came to comfort me, allowing me to write a letter home. They tried to get me to lie and say that things were fine so as to cover up their evil deeds.

Close to the end of my prison term, they secretly intensified the persecution. On several occasions they tried to force me to write a repentance statement. I don't understand why, but I suddenly became mentally disoriented. I became very absent-minded and I lost my memory. I couldn't walk by myself, I couldn't use my hands to feed myself, and I almost lost all ability to take care of myself. I suffered a mental collapse. The labor camp was afraid to assume any responsibility, so they sent more people to try to force me to write a guarantee statement. They called for local police to take me home when I was released. At that time, I was not in a clear state of mind. The persecution has led to irreparable damage and loss."

Between March and April 2002, the Jiamusi City Xigemu Women's Forced Labor Camp started pressuring Falun Gong practitioners into being "reformed" through brainwashing. In addition, over twenty female guards were relocated from the Jiamusi Prison to the forced labor camp to participate in the persecution.

When the brainwashing started, the guards moved Falun Gong practitioners from their "small cells" and gathered them all into a large room on the third floor. They forced practitioners to sit on little stools to watch propaganda that defamed Falun Gong, from 6:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. The little stools were specially made such that four spiral nail poles protruded above the surface. The practitioners were forced to sit with their backs straight, their two hands flat on their kneecaps and their legs bent at a 90-degree angle. Several guards rotated, patrolling day and night with rubber and wooden clubs. As soon as they saw that someone's posture was not correct, they beat that practitioner with the club. As a result of sitting on the little stool for an extended period, some practitioners' buttocks were severely bruised and torn by the protruding spiral nail poles.

One time, because the practitioners refused to read articles that defamed Falun Gong, the guards called in some male guards from the management office and proceeded to brutally beat the practitioners. One practitioner's arm was broken from the beating. Another practitioner's leg was fractured. Many other practitioners were severely injured.

The chief guard in charge of torture on the second floor dragged three to four Falun Gong practitioners to the second floor every day. He first tried to force the practitioners to copy the repentance statement. If someone refused, he immediately started torturing them. First the guard held the practitioner to the floor. He then lifted the bed board and handcuffed the practitioner's hands onto the steel bed frame. Such a torture method is called "behind-the-back handcuffing." (The practitioner's hands are first tied behind the back with one hand over the shoulder and the other hand against the lower back. The police then apply a great deal of force to pull the hands toward one another and handcuff them together.) This causes the practitioner under torture to suffer excruciating pain from torn muscles and fractured bones. When the torture lasts a long time, the practitioners lose consciousness from the pain.

Later, a guard devised a vicious torture method. When they handcuff the practitioners' hands, they lock the handcuffs deep into the practitioners' bones. In a very short while, the handcuffed hands turn from red to black due to the lack of blood circulation. After half an hour, the hands above and below are switched. During the process of switching, the guard intentionally lifts the handcuffs up to worsen the pain. Because the handcuffs were locked into the bone, the skin on the practitioners' wrists was torn and the gaping flesh wounds were produced. During this torture, one can often hear painful cries from the corridor. After several months of brutal torture, many practitioners became handicapped from the beatings and the handcuffing. Some practitioners even became paralyzed.

Those who participated in the torture include: He Qiang, Liu Yadong, Sun Limin, Li Xiujin, Mu Zhenjuan, Sun Min, Gao Jie, Gao Xiaohua, Hong Wei, Jiang Jianan, Zhang Yan, prison guard Lin, prison guard Sun, and others. In addition, guards from the management department participated in the torture. Yu Wenbin was the "educator" of the brainwashing session.

Ms. Li Haixiang, 55 years old, is a family member of an employee at 728 Salt Plant, Yingcheng City in Hubei Province. After she began practicing Falun Gong in 1995, the illnesses and pain all over her body vanished. On the evening of July 19, 1999, her home was ransacked by some officials of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). She was illegally arrested and imprisoned twice. The officials came to her home to harass her every day. Her father worried all day and night, and he died in December 2001. The officials also forced her son to pressure her to renounce Falun Gong, threatening to dismiss him from his job if he refused to do so. As a result, her family was unable to live a normal life. She could not read Falun Gong books or practice the exercises and she was constantly under pressure. She had symptoms of blood poisoning, and left the world on February 19, 2005.

Mr. Feng Qingke, 62 years old, is a retired worker at Xinji City, Hebei Province. He started the practice of Falun Gong before April 25, 1999. After July 20, 1999, his wife went to Beijing to appeal and to clarify the truth. She was stopped and sent back by the police. After that, the police went to their home many times to harass and threaten them. They arrested them many times, extorted ten thousand yuan from them, and damaged Mr. Feng's body and mind. As a result he could not practice Falun Gong, and his health worsened. He left the world on September 30, 2005.

Ms. Liu Tin-er, 44 years old, lived in Beiduanzhuang Village, Town of Lizhuang, Qingyuan County, Hebei Province. For practicing Falun Gong, she was arrested many times, detained, illegally fined, and suffered mistreatment at a labor camp. Her mind was seriously harmed. She died on November 19, 2003.

Ms. Gu Xijuan, was a department head at Wuxi City Insurance Company, Jiangsu Province, (home address: 42 Sunjiang New Village #401, Wuxi City). Because she refused to renounce Falun Gong, she was persecuted many times by CCP personnel. In January 2001, she was arrested by 610 Office personnel and persecuted in a brainwashing center. In 2002, she was arrested once again and taken to a brainwashing session at Jinchengwan, where the former Wuxi County Court had been located. During this period, Gu Xijuan had blood in her stool. She requested a hospital examination, but the 610 Office personnel used various excuses not to take her to the hospital, so her health drastically worsened. In 2002, Wuxi City 610 Office personnel went to her company to harass her, and the pressure caused her physical and mental health to deteriorate. She died in September 2002.

Mr. Ma Jianshe, 53 years old, was from Sijie, Xinji City, Hebei Province. He used to have diabetes long ago, and had sought after medical help in every way, but had no success. He had been in misery beyond description. After he practiced Falun Gong, the disease he had suffered for many years vanished. He tried to be a good person everywhere and at all times. After July 20 in 1999, he went to Beijing to appeal, but he was arrested and sent back to his native town by CCP personnel. He was pummeled by the police, detained for more than 40 days, and illegally fined 2,600 yuan. From then on, the public security bureau and personnel at 610 Offices treated him as a key person to persecute. National Security Group Chief Geng Zhanfeng (the father of a current police officer Geng Chao) led the police to Mr. Ma's home many times to search the place and harass him. They threatened, "If we find even a little Falun Gong material, we will go after you until you have lost everything." In April 2003, 610 Office personnel led the police again to break into his home suddenly, and they took him to a brainwashing session. They used violence to try to force him to turn against Falun Gong. They even detained his relative that was visiting him. Threatening to harm his relative, they forced him to renounce Falun Gong. Ma Jianshe's body and mind were devastated. Due to the police harassment and threats at his home, he suffered a relapse of his old disease and left the world on June 13, 2005.

After the persecution of Falun Gong started on July 20, 1999, she endured the pain of watching her children being persecuted and was subjected to pressure and harassment at every turn. In the Spring of 2005, she was subjected to the government agents' unlawful persecution and intimidation once again. She passed away on August 2, 2005 as a result.

Mr. Li Zhengang, 74 years old, was a Falun Gong practitioner from Baoding City, Hebei Province. He began his practice in 1997. After that all of his diseases quickly disappeared. After July 20, 1999, his wife and daughter went to Beijing many times to appeal for Falun Gong. As a result, they were illegally arrested and sentenced to forced labor camps. The police officers visited his home many times to harass the family. His wife was forcibly and illegally fined, with the amount automatically deducted from her salary for three years.

To clarify the facts to the government, she went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong twice. She was detained illegally and sent to the notorious Shibalihe Forced Labor Camp in Zhengzhou City, Henan Province. Although she was overage for a labor camp, the government agents gave her a one-year sentence anyway. For years after that, whenever it was a so-called "sensitive period," the agents would harass her at her home. In January 2005, they ransacked her home once again and arrested her daughter. Under such huge and unjustifiable torment, she was thrown into a stupor, became paralyzed, and developed edema all over.

On November 23, 2005, the Minghui website reported that the 97-year old father of Falun Gong practitioner Tian Fujin from Tongliao City, Inner Mongolia was severely ill and bedridden. He was expecting his son and granddaughter to come home and see him, but both were in prison. The Wuyuan Forced Labor Camp, however, refused to release them.

At 7:00 p.m. on November 18, 2005, Tian Fujin's father died. Tian Fujin and his daughter did not see him before he passed away. His 81-year old mother and other family members and friends of Tian Fujin had eagerly awaited his return.

Mr. Tian Fujin is 55 years old. He was the former vice president of the Leather Factory of Tongliao City. For practicing Falun Gong, he was illegally sentenced to five years in prison. His family has been torn apart for the last six years, and six of his family members were subjected to persecution and sentenced to forced labor camps and prisons. Family members were separated from one another, their business went bankrupt, and their savings were exhausted.

Tian Fujin was sentenced to a forced labor camp twice for a total of five years. He is still being persecuted at the Wuyuan Forced Labor Camp in Inner Mongolia. His first daughter Tian Fang and third daughter Tian Miao were sentenced for four and six years, respectively. Both are being persecuted at the Women's Prison of Huhhot City in Inner Mongolia.

We appeal to all righteous people to rescue Tian Fujin's family and help all of the innocent Falun Gong practitioners who are being persecuted.
