1. [Maoming City, Guangdong Province] Illegal Prison Sentence for Dafa Practitioners Mr. Wu Zhiqi and Mr. Wu Yongjian -- Belated News

Mr. Wu Zhiqi, 46, is a resident of Wenliu Village, Longwanguan District, Maihua Town, Maoming City. Before he began practicing Falun Gong, he had nose and throat cancer; however, Falun Gong practice cured the cancer. On January 15, 2002, policemen from Maoming City's "610 Office*" and from the Maihua Police Station arrested him, put him into Maoming City's Detention Center, and sentenced him to seven years of imprisonment. Wu Zhiqi is now being held at Yangjiang City's Wenquan Prison.

Mr. Wu Yongjian was a teacher from Maoming City's Education College. In 2000, when he went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong, Beijing police arrested him at the place near Tiananmen Square where he was staying. He was later taken back and put into Maoming City's No. 1 Detention Center. Because he persisted in practicing Dafa, he was sentenced to seven years of imprisonment. He is now being held at Yangjiang City's Wenquan Forced Labor Camp.

* 610 Office: an agency specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems.
