1. [Tianjin] Tianjin Women's Forced Labor Camp Guards Intensify Persecution of Falun Dafa Practitioners
Tianjin Women's Forced Labor Camp has launched a new round of severe persecution against Falun Dafa practitioners in Unit 1 who refuse to renounce their belief in Falun Dafa. Practitioners who are being targeted include: An Yuzhi, Zhao Shuxia, Chen Ruiqin, Cui Yanqing, Jiao Qihui, Zhang Xingyun, Yang Jing, He Qinying, Zhu Xijuan, Gao Tianhua, Wu Yuling, Li Shuzhi, Zhang Guiyun, Wang Jingxiang, Gao Jianling, An Qi, Wang Haibo, Liu Shuqin, Li Xiufeng, and Wang Chunhua. They are in a very dangerous situation.
In order to coerce each practitioner into writing a Guarantee Statement or a repentance statement (1), Tianjin authorities are awarding prison guards 10,000 to 20,000 yuan for each statement they procure.
