On July 1, 2001, authorities of the Huhhot Female Forced Labor Camp held a conference under the pretense of the day of the Chinese Communist Party's establishment. They made a rule that each Falun Gong practitioner would be guarded by three or four prisoners. The police and the head of the camp had continuous patrols keeping watch on the practitioners.
Right after the police announcement, the authorities had several collaborators* make speeches composed of propaganda against Falun Gong. During the break after the second collaborator spoke, Falun Gong practitioner Liu Zhenyu stepped up calmly to the microphone and called out, "Falun Dafa is good!" The words lasted just a few seconds, but the confident move in such an evil environment showed the firm righteous belief of Ms. Liu, a twenty-year old undergraduate who was dismissed from college and jailed by Jiang's regime for practicing Falun Gong.
Right after she spoke, the policemen viciously dragged her down from the stage and out of the meeting place along the ground. As the Falun Gong practitioners stood up one after another, the policemen panicked and shouted, "Sit down; be seated immediately!" The inmates also moved to block the practitioners' mouths and hold them down. What happened in a few minutes proved a principle that Teacher explained to us, "The evil has utilized the power in bad people's hands to create turmoil for nearly two years, using the most base actions ever in human history--whether ancient or modern, Chinese or foreign--and employing all the most malicious means to persecute Dafa and its cultivators. Its aim is to use coercive measures to change Dafa cultivators' hearts and have them give up their cultivation practice. This is futile." ("Coercion Cannot Change People's Hearts" from Essentials for Further Advancement II).
Ms. Liu did not show up for dinner in the dinning room. Despite being gagged by the police, the people coming back after their slave labor jobs heard her pained moaning that night, which transmitted from the third floor to the first floor. Every day the police abused her inhumanly using different tortures such as beatings and electric shocks. They even locked her up with a kind of handcuff or shackle called "wolf's fang" for days.
I hope that our jailed fellow practitioners will confront the Jiang regime's thugs with righteous thoughts and refuse to cooperate with this evil persecution. The Falun Dafa practitioners' determination is powerful. As Teacher said, "No matter what the situation, do not cooperate with the evil's demands, orders, or what it instigates. If everyone does this the environment won't be this way." ("Dafa Disciples' Righteous Thoughts are Powerful" from Essentials for Further Advancement II).
* Collaborators are former Falun Gong practitioners who have turned against Dafa due to brainwashing and torture.
