3. [Dalian City, Liaoning Province] Two Sisters Secretly Sentenced; Family Members Appeal for Legal Support

On April 6, 2005, the Dalian Zhongshan District Court sentenced Ms. Hu Shumei and Ms. Hu Guilian without informing their family members. The court fabricated the crime of "hindering the implementation of the law" to sentence them. Their family members, however, were not informed until recently, and their lawyer was not allowed to see the sisters. The family was not given the details of the sisters' sentencing.

Both sisters were arrested on September 6, 2004. On October 13, the detention center forced the family members to sign the arrest paper and made up an arrest date of September 30, 2004. In an earlier incident on April 26, 2002, Ms. Hu Guilian's daughter was sentenced to two years of forced labor simply because she refused to sign the paper when her parents were detained. This time, the family members, feeling intimidated, signed the arrest paper out of pressure. Ms. Hu Guilian's husband Mr. Liu Wencan is still paralyzed from being tortured for seven consecutive days and nights when he was previously detained.

4. [Yanjin County, Henan Province] Police Arrest Dafa Practitioners

On the afternoon of March 18, 2005, the Yanjing County Police Department received a report from the Cenggu Township Police Station stating that someone was clarifying the truth about Falun Gong in the township. They suspected it was Ms. Bian Zhaoqing, who lived in the township, and broke into her home. They also took some truth clarification materials. At that time, they did not arrest Ms. Bian because they lacked proof.

On March 21, when Ms. Bian went out shopping and was chatting with friends in the Dongjie Area, the Yanjing County plain-clothes police arrested her. The details are not known. Ms. Bian's husband has been paralyzed for many years and depends on her care.
