On Monday Mr. Wang will be sent to Yinmahe Forced Labor Camp in Jiutai City and his wife will be sent to Heizuizi Women's Forced Labor Camp in Changchun City.
Mr. Wang Tongchun was sentenced for the following reasons: 1) sending articles to the Minghui website to expose the persecution the couple had experienced; 2) writing truth-clarification letters to Yinmahe Forced Labor Camp; and 3) having contact with Mr. Wang's younger sister, also a practitioner, who resides in Japan.
Wang Tongchun's wife was sentenced for assisting her husband to go to Beijing.
The "610 Office" in Changchun indicated that they had kept up surveillance on Mr. Wang Tongchun for more than eight months.
When Japanese Falun Gong practitioners phoned the Songjiang Political and Security Section where Mr. Wang Tongchun was detained, Wang Jiang from the Section claimed that Mr. Wang Tongchun was followed and arrested on his way to Beijing, after photos recreating tortures that Mr. Wang had sent abroad were intercepted by Chinese customs.

4. [Jiyang County, Shandong Province] Mr. Duzezhou Walks Out of the Brainwashing Center with Righteous Thoughts
In September of 2001, Mr. Du Zezhou of Jiyang County, Shandong Province, was detained and sent to the Jinan City Brainwashing Center by the Jinan City "610 Office." Because Mr. Du refused to renounce Falun Gong he was transferred by the City "610 Office" to Liuchangshan Forced Labor Camp in Jinan City to serve a three-year term. In the labor camp, they used all sorts of torture, including violence, threats, and depriving him of his right to meet with his father in order to try to make him renounce Falun Gong.

After local practitioners heard the news, they exposed it right away by posting it on the Minghui website. When overseas practitioners got the news, they took immediate action to phone Weining County and tell the local people the truth. The direct calls to the police system worried the police. At the same time, the detained Mr. Han was all the more righteous in his thoughts and actions and completely negated the persecution by the old forces. No matter where he was, he clarified the truth. Those who learned the truth about Falun Dafa respected him very much. One month later all the practitioners who had been arrested were released. Finally, a window opened, and practitioners who persist in practicing Falun Gong or whose truth-clarification materials are discovered by the police are no longer sentenced to jail or forced labor. This has greatly inspired local practitioners.

They were sent back because "Falun Gong practitioners are not allowed to go to Beijing."
Huadian City "610 Office" then took the opportunity to extort money.

After the practitioners returned, the "610 Office" detained the adults and the children for more than 24 hours with no legal cause.

In the afternoon of September 17, 30-year-old practitioner Ms. Yan Liping was reported and arrested while handing out truth-clarification materials in the Hanji Township of Hanchuan City. She is now in the Hanchuan City No. 2 Detention Center. Ms. Yan Liping clarified the truth about Falun Dafa to anyone she met. When her brother and sister-in-law requested her release, the detention center staff lied that they would release her on October 2. However, on September 30 the city police department, in collaboration with the "610 Office," transferred Ms. Yan to the Hanchuan City No. 1 Detention Center for further detention. Later they sentenced her to two years of forced labor and sent her to the Qilihu Prison in Zhongxiang City, Hubei Province, without notifying her family.
In the afternoon of October 13, practitioners Ms. Huang Haitang, who is in her sixties and from Xiaojiatai in Yongfeng Village, Liuge Township of Hanchaung City, Hubei Province, and Huang Zhenggao, who is in her twenties, were carrying bricks for someone who was building a house. Huang Zhenggao read her Falun Gong book during the break. Unfortunately, He Chengsheng, the Director of the Office to Comprehensively Tackle the Problems of Liuge Township in Hanchuan City, discovered her. He Chengsheng threatened to send Huang Zhenggao to the police station. Then Ms. Huang Haitang began to clarify the facts to him. Instead of listening to her kind advice He Chengsheng said, "Oh, you also practice Falun Gong, do you? Okay, I will detain you as well." Practitioners Huang Haitang and Huang Zhenggao were both arrested and are now held at the Hanchuan City No. 2 Detention Center.

On August 12, 2004, Ms. Chen was directly sent to Xingshan Brainwashing Center for further persecution.

23. [Hunan Province] Mr. Yu Shaoqi from Chenxi County in Huaihua City Is Arrested for Making Truth-Clarification Phone Calls
Mr. Yu Shaoqi, 27 years old, is a practitioner from Chenxi County, Huaihua City, Hunan Province. About two weeks ago, after reading articles on policeman Tang Yubao disfiguring Dafa practitioner Gao Rongrong with electric shock torture, he phoned Tang Yubao. He asked him kindly to stop violating the law. The Chenxi County "610 Office" promptly arrested him. The Head of the National Security Division Yu Qingchang beat him cruelly. All his teeth came loose and his mouth bled profusely. Yu Qingchang also twisted Mr. Yu Shaoqi's hand to the point that it was about to break. Mr. Yu Shaoqi is now still under detention.
Note:
1. "Tying the Ropes": The police tie the practitioner with a thin rope, circle the rope around his neck and tie his hands behind his back. Then the police would use all the force they can muster to tighten the rope. The rope becomes tighter and tighter around the body of the practitioner, making it more and more difficult for him to breathe. The pain is so intense that the practitioner sometimes loses control of his bladder. There are instances when the rope was tightened enough to break a practitioner's arm.
