Brainwashing centers are being established in every city in Sichuan Province to persecute Falun Dafa practitioners and force them to give up their belief. The scheduled brainwashing term is three years, while life sentences will be given to determined practitioners. The brainwashing center of Qingbaijiang District, Chengdu City is to be built in the Longwang Grain Depot, which is affiliated with the Qingbaijiang District Provisioning Department. At present, the "610 Office"* of Qingbaijiang District has asked the builders to survey the site. Construction is already underway.

I am a Falun Dafa practitioner from Sichuan Province. I began cultivation practice in June of 1998. Because I persisted in practicing Falun Dafa and spoke the truth about the persecution, the local police went to my home to look for me. I continually refused to cooperate with them so they resorted to threatening and manipulating my family members to try to get them to turn against me. They pressured my son, telling him that they would withhold his wages and remove him from his job as a civil servant. They threatened to punish my entire family and all my colleagues by withholding their wages. Because of this, my family was against my practicing Falun Dafa. I tried to clarify the truth to them and although they were aware of my improved health condition since I started practicing, they would not listen to me no matter what I said. At that time, I realized they had been so deeply poisoned by the insidious propaganda against Falun Gong. Because of the policy that implicated them and threatened their interests, they took it out on me by resorting to all forms of violence -- banging me against a wall, attempting to throw me down a flight of stairs, slapping me on the face, strangling me with their hands, and pinching me leaving wounds all over my body. The neighbor saw that I was beaten up and said: "Is Falun Gong really that good? Your two sons and your husband hit you so heartlessly, yet you didn't fight back or scorn them." No matter what I remained steadfast in my belief. The police brought all my relatives and friends to me in an attempt to persuade me by tempting me with money and material things. They were unable to move me as I am and was determined to practice Falun Dafa.

(Clearwisdom Net) Dafa practitioner Ms. Wei Guirong was a 54-year-old staff member in the Erligang Administration Office of Guancheng District, Zhengzhou City of Henan Province.

In October 1999, several fellow practitioners went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Dafa. After being arrested, they mentioned Ms. Wei's name to the police. She was therefore captured and detained in the Zhengzhou City's No.4 Custodial Center, accused of being an "organizer, plotter and instigator." Her husband rushed about everywhere and spent almost 10,000 Yuan in order to finally rescue his wife. During that period, Ms. Wei's younger sister, who did not practice Dafa, came to the center to visit her from their hometown, which was hundreds of miles away. Seeing Ms. Wei's suffering for no reason, the sister could not accept the situation and fell ill after returning home, and soon died from the stress of the injustice.
