Fellow Practitioners, Greetings!
It has not been easy for me to write this letter. Usually, there is no way Dafa practitioners here can communicate with the outside world. Because of this, the situation here has deteriorated and the arrangements of the old forces still exist. The evil and their followers that oppose the righteous Fa are still persecuting Dafa practitioners. However, the practitioners here can look at problems not as ordinary people. Though they have gone through tortuous paths, they have studied the Fa and they have elevated themselves quickly in the cultivation of their hearts. They also have written their solemn declarations to remain steadfast in their belief in Dafa and to staunchly defend the Fa. Many practitioners have conducted themselves extremely well here and truly can be called Teacher's students.
The important part of this letter is to brief you on the state of affairs here. For example, many practitioners, including Zhang Hongwei, Liu Zhaojian, Shi Guohong, Wang Zengwu, Wu Yifeng, Li Dehai, Bai Ye, Yang Feng, Lei Ming, Yang Huiyong and many whose names I don't know are being persecuted severely and are suffering inhuman torture. Such persecution is aimed at shaking the righteous belief of the Dafa practitioners. The criminal gang is headed by political committee member Liu Changjiang, assisted by Secretary Li Yongsheng, and convicts Wang Cheng, Li Ming and others.
Liu Zairian and Zhang Hongwei could hardly walk after being persecuted by the ruthless supervision section, which confined Zhang Hongwei for 58 days to a fixed bed meant for death row inmates. Shi Guohong was severely assaulted because he refused to write the "four letters" [Practitioners are coerced under brainwashing and torture to write these as proof that they have given up their belief. Created by the "610 Office," the statements consist of a letter of repentance, a guarantee to never again practice Falun Gong, and a list of names and addresses of all family members, friends and acquaintances who are practitioners] when he was first sent to this prison. After Wu Goofing refused to write the "four letters," he likewise was sent to be dealt with by the brutal supervision unit. Li Doha wrote a solemn declaration and was confined to the fixed bed for a day and a half with his tongue badly bitten. Lei Ming refused to write the "four letters" and was beaten severely by the convict Wang Cheng for about an hour. Bai Ye was also confined to the fixed bed for 15 days. Instigated by Li Ming, a convict assaulted Liang Zhenxing. There are still a number of Dafa practitioners who are being persecuted and are being confined to so-called self-examination, and about seven or eight practitioners confined in the solitary confinement rooms charged with false evidence are being persecuted.
Please ask the practitioners in countries overseas to expose the evil here to the legal community and everyone else, and let the people know what they have done here. Dafa practitioners here will continue to validate the Fa, as always. We will walk our paths righteously, using our righteous thoughts and divine actions to reach the consummation of our great prehistoric vows.
Sincerely,
Dafa practitioners who are illegally confined at the Jilin jail, Jilin Province
With both hands conjoined. (Heshi)
