Her elderly mother has been left unattended and sent to a nursing home. Unfortunately, her mother has difficulty moving around and cannot be taken care of very well in the nursing home.

15. [Huanggang City, Hubei Province] Huanggang City "610 Office" Applies Pressure to Companies and Organizations
After receiving a brainwashing quota from the provincial "610 Office," the Huanggang City "610 Office" in Hubei Province has ordered the abductions of any Falun Dafa practitioners who have shown outstanding performance in various companies and organizations. Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Xiong Xiulian is one of these victims. Each company or organization where practitioners have been arrested has to contribute 6,000 yuan to the brainwashing center [500 yuan is the average monthly income for an urban worker]. Because of widespread corruption, many factories in the Huanggang area are on the verge of bankruptcy. Under pressure by the Huanggang City "610 Office" for the company either to pay 6,000 yuan to the provincial brainwashing center or to have the practitioner sign the transformation statement [renouncing Falun Gong], leaders of many companies are infuriated. But they dare not speak out against the "610 Office" and have been harassing Falun Dafa practitioners instead. Most companies cannot afford to pay out 6,000 yuan, and their leaders have repeatedly begged practitioners to sign the transformation statements. When practitioners refused to comply, the leaders forged signatures in front of practitioners. Some companies have threatened practitioners with suspension of salary or termination if they refuse to sign transformation statements. Some leaders know that they cannot force practitioners to sign the statements, so they simply make a phone call to make sure the practitioner is at home and then go ahead and date the statement with a forged signature.

Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Yu Min, 40, is an employee of the Huludao Textile Factory. She suffered from breast cancer prior to practicing Falun Gong. Despite all sorts of treatments, she was not able to recover. After practicing Falun Dafa, she has set high standards based on the principle of Truthfulness-Benevolence-Forbearance, and the illness is completely gone. In order to validate the effectiveness of Falun Gong in keeping people fit and to expose the lies spread by news media in China, Ms. Yu has continued to tell people around her about the magnificence of Falun Dafa. Facing the threat of arrest, she has continued to deliver materials that clarify the facts about Falun Gong.
On November 27, 2003, Liu Xingcheng and numerous other officers from the Lianshan District Branch of the Huludao City Police Department unlawfully searched Ms. Yu's home.

19. [Daqing City, Heilongjiang Province] Security Division of the No. 2 Construction Company in Daqing City Extorts Money from Falun Dafa Practitioners
Zhang Zhongyi was the former head of the security division in the Zhu'an Construction Group Company in Daqing, Heilongjiang Province. At the beginning of 2001, he led Zhang Dejun, deputy head of the security division, Liu Hongliang and other division staff to extort 10,000 yuan from each of the families of six Falun Dafa practitioners employed in the company. These six practitioners had gone to Beijing to appeal on behalf of Falun Gong and had already been unlawfully detained for over eighty days of abuse and torture. The construction company subsequently went bankrupt, and the practitioners have not received any salary for years. They went to the leaders to ask for a total of 60,000 yuan in back pay. The leaders either made up excuses or rejected their request outright, as there was no paper trail when they extorted cash from the practitioners' families.
The telephone number of the office of the head of the Security Division in the Construction Group Company is: 86-459-6557637.

Mr. Wu is over 50 years old, and he was beaten to the point of losing consciousness. In addition, blood gushed out of a wound on Mr. Sun Fu's head.
3. Forty yuan have been extorted from each Falun Gong practitioner to buy "prop" luggage. Practitioner Li Wei has been forced to pay for four other inmates, totaling 160 yuan. [Note: The "prop" luggage is not to be used by anyone except when television crews are on site producing programs and contain items such as toiletries, blankets and other necessities in order to create an illusion that the practitioner is being detained under humane circumstances.]
22. [Jilin Province] Authorities Tighten Internet Access in Jilin Province
Recently, several practitioners have discovered that officers from police stations are screening technical people who are good at personal computers and networking. Authorities have also sent people to certain highway exit checkpoints to examine notebook computers. A while back, police in the Changchun New High-Tech Development Zone unlawfully arrested over twenty Falun Dafa practitioners, who had received higher education and are knowledgeable in computer technology, to be persecuted.
Recently, the Internet information blockade has escalated. Practitioners at some sites where Falun Gong information is held have encountered difficulty in promptly uploading documents exposing the evil persecution to the Minghui website.
