Facts of the Persecution
1.The Abduction and Persecution of Liupanshui City No. 1 High School Teacher Wang Heqin of Guizhou Province
Ms. Wang Heqin is an outstanding teacher in Liupanshui City No. 1 High School, Guizhou Province. Because she practices Falun Gong, she was illegally arrested six times and forced to leave home to avoid persecution on two occasions. On January 20, 2005, the perpetrators again abducted Ms. Wang, and she was detained at Liupanshui City No. 1 Detention Center. Ms. Wang's mother, more than 60 years old, and her 9-year-old daughter, are left home alone without care and are enduring much hardship. In early 2002, without explanation, Ms. Wang was prohibited from teaching at her school. After appealing to the principal, she was allowed to return to work. However, she was transferred to a position in the library with a lower salary. Wang Heqin's mother, He Jingming, is also a Falun Dafa practitioner. Her home was ransacked by 12 policemen on March 29, 2002 and she was detained for 6 days at the Public Security Bureau. She was detained for 14 more days at the detention center. The police did not release He Jingming until she was critically ill as a result of cruel persecution. Since being released, He Jingming has been bedridden at home for more than two months and is unable to care for herself. Wang Heqin's daughter, only 9 years old, was refused permission to see her mother by the National Security officers.

2. Falun Dafa Practitioners in Quzhou County, Handan City, Hebei Province, are Abducted While Shoveling Snow To Help Others
Before the Chinese New Year, snowfall in Handan, Hebei Province, created hardships for the people residing there. Several Falun Dafa practitioners from Suxiaoying Village, Dahedao Township, Quzhou County, Handan got together and shoveled snow to help other people. They held a banner which read, "Falun Dafa is Great," shoveled snow, and clarified the truth. When they had finished more than a kilometer of snow shoveling, Dahedao Township Police Station Manager Tian Lianhe led several policemen to abduct these five practitioners and take them to the police station. They tried to force the practitioners to clear snow at the police station and township courtyard. The practitioners did not cooperate with this unreasonable demand, so the police pulled one practitioner into the room by the hair. The policemen even set up a secret tribunal to interrogate Falun Dafa practitioners. Tian Lianhe instigated four hired thugs, which included Huang Yantao, to beat and kick the practitioners. Some practitioners lost consciousness from the beating, and were sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. Then police from the County Public Security Bureau showed up. One practitioner escaped, while four practitioners were forcibly taken to the detention center and arrested. At this time, three of the Falun Dafa practitioners are on a hunger strike in the detention center. They are: Mr. Su Zhaochen, over 70 years old, Ms. Wang Fenglian, over 40 years old, and Ms. Yin Feng, over 40 years old.
