It has been more than three years since she was illegally listed as being wanted nationwide. Lu Yanna has been forced to leave home to avoid further persecution and unlawful arrest by the authorities.

[Jingyuan County, Gansu Province] Lawless Perpetrators of the Dongwan Township Torture Falun Dafa practitioners
At the moment, officials from Dongwan Township informed residents to keep a close eye on visitors. Whenever they see a visitor or a Falun Gong practitioner they must report it immediately. Besides, the Jingyuan County Public Security Bureau has not only illegally detained a large number of Falun Dafa practitioners at detention centres or forced labour camps (According to Clearwisdom report, among the Dafa practitioners, Bai Sanyuan of Pingbao was tortured to death.) but also illegally arrested two other practitioners recently for allegedly possessing Teacher Li's new articles.

They searched the house and took away some Falun Dafa material. The policemen also searched a shed from where they took away several boxes of printing paper. Then they went to Zhao Xiyun's husband Li Fuhe's (also a Dafa practitioner) work unit to bring him back home. The couple were arrested and sent straight to the Jingzhou City Detention Centre.

[Jiamusi City, Heilongjiang Province] The Principal Culprits in Persecuting Falun Dafa Practitioners Zeng Qinghong and Jia Qinglin Recently visited the city of Jiamusi
Around May 26, members of the Standing Committee of the Politburo of the Chinese Communist Party Central Committee Zeng Qinghong and Jia Qinglin visited Jiamusi and the surrounding cities and countries (probably Hegang and Huachuan). A large number of plainclothes public security personnel were deployed around the Jiamusi Guest House. Whenever any person or vehicle passed by the Guest House the plainclothes officers would stop them for questioning. Many streets were sealed off, which caused a lot of inconvenience to the public.
On the afternoon of May 27, public security personnel guarded every crossing along the main boulevard, Changan Road. Even those lanes not normally noticeable were guarded. Police cars were everywhere. The street peddlers who normally line both sides of the street, the bicycle repair stand and people from the labour market were all driven off the street because Zeng and Jia were to pass by the area on their inspection tour. The motorcade passed Changan Road at about 4 p.m.; however the sections of the road where the motorcade would pass were sealed off long before that. Pedestrians and bicycles were not allowed to use the road. Only when the motorcade passed was the traffic permitted to return to normal. Residents, taxi drivers and even the policemen were all disgusted with the unnecessary arrangement. Some said, "The Party is doomed. We make such a fuss when only vice premiers are in town. If the head of the country comes then all the residents of the city would probably be banned from coming out of their houses." Some said, "They came here to solve problems so they should work together with the people of the city and communicate with them. But instead they are so afraid of the people. Can their kind of officials really serve the people?" When some others learned that there were people coming from Beijing, they said, "Don't bring SARS here."
Zeng and Jia left Jiamusi on the morning of May 28. It is said that the two men came to visit the city because of the large scale protest staged by the Jiamusi Textile Factory workers who had blocked the train many times. However, the lawless officials of the city have not devoted their energies to serve the people, but instead to persecuting Falun Dafa practitioners. The officials issued orders that efforts should made in preventing against SARS; however, more effort should be made to arrest Falun Dafa practitioners.
While the SARS virus was spreading in China, most of the areas in Heilongjiang Province suffered from a severe drought. The water level of the Songhua River in Jiamusi is very low and the rainfall is scarce, so agriculture in the area suffered huge losses.

[China] Question Persecutors: Is There Any Difference Between What You Are Doing and What the Crooks Do?
One day when I drove four persons from the district police department to the neighbourhood committee, one of them said, "Yesterday (26th) people from the neighbourhood committee and the police station went to knock on a resident's door. When no one answered the door they just carried a ladder and broke into the house from the window. They left when they found there was nobody in the house." I said, "It's against the law to break into a private house." That person said, "It was done in cooperation with members of the police department." I said, "Members of the police department must obey the law too." That person said, "The owner of the house practices Falun Gong". I said, "Those who practice Falun Gong are all good people. Besides, they have not done any thing wrong and everyone is equal before the law. Why couldn't they do their job in line with the law? Is there any difference between what they are doing and what the criminals do. I don't see that there is any difference between them and common criminals."

[Tianjin City] A Brief Account of the Persecution of Falun Dafa Practitioners at Forced Labour Camps in Tianjin City
Originally there was only one forced labour camp in Tianjin City, known as the Jianxin Forced Labour Camp, where Dafa practitioners were being detained. In order to persecute Falun Gong practitioners, the city specifically set up the Banqiao Forced Labour Camp (No. Four Division) and No. Five Division. From the very beginning, the No. Five Division illegally detained about 40 Dafa practitioners. The Jianxin Forced Labour Camp was originally used to hold people who had committed all kinds of criminal offences. With more and more Dafa practitioners being illegally sent to the camp the number of real criminals held there decreased to about 4 or 5 and the rest are all Dafa practitioners. At present about 50 to 60 Falun Dafa practitioners are still illegally being detained in the camp.

Prior to the Sixteenth Congress of the Chinese Communist Party, Zhang Duoyun's daughter Zhang Lingzhi was illegally arrested by the police. She is still being held at the camp and has suffered from all sorts of torture. We hope the overseas Dafa practitioners can continue to make phone calls to clarify the truth.
