3. Huili County Hospital Withheld Ms. Luo Jiping's Retirement Salary
Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Luo Jiping is 59 years old and a retired employee of the Huili County People's Hospital in Sichuan Province. She has not taken a single dose of medicine or seen a doctor at all in the past several years since she started to practice, saving lots of money that would have been spent on medical expenses. In September 2000, Ms. Luo Jiping went to the local government to clarify the truth and was fined one thousand yuan by police. Ever since then, police, her employer, and people from the neighborhood administration have kept coming to her home to harass her. From September 2003 to December 2004, her employer withheld her retirement salary. Ms. Luo went to talk with her employer to let them know that such action is illegal. From January 2005, her employer started paying her 300 yuan each month basic living expense, but still would not pay her the full amount of 900 yuan.

4. Crimes Committed by the Yiling District 610 Office of Yichang City and the Yidu City Legal Justice System
The Yiling District 610 Office of Yichang City and the Yidu City Legal Justice System in Hubei Province have been continually harassing the Falun Dafa practitioners, closely monitoring them and threatening them. Staff from the 610 Office arrest practitioners at will, and then extort money from their families. Ms. Yang Suqin is an elderly practitioner who was locked up in a brainwashing class. Gong Binghua and Hu Qinghua (both gender unknown) instructed 610 Office staff to beat Ms. Yang with a wooden stick. As a result, she suffered a fractured hip. The Yiling District Education Department brainwashed students so they would hate Falun Dafa, harming those innocent children. The Yidu City State Security Division, Lucheng Police Station, Yidu City Police Department, Department of Justice, Procuratorate, the Court House, and 610 Office are acting jointly in this persecution. According to incomplete statistics, in the past six years, there have been more than ten Falun Dafa practitioners sent to labor camps and many people unlawfully detained. Ms. Zheng Jumei (in her 60s) was arrested at her relative's house by police from Yaodian Station at the beginning of 2004 and was sentenced to two years in prison without trial. Ms. Zheng is now locked in Fanjiatai Prison located in Shayang City.
