- Liu Lifang, female, 44 years old, works at the China Bank near Chaoyang Road. On the evening of March 11, 2008, she went home after work. Four or five policemen from the National Security Team searched her home and took her away. The police confiscated her Dafa books and other personal property. Presumably she is detained by the National Security Team, although there is no real way of finding out. Her thirteen year-old daughter was left alone at home with no one to take care of her.
- Kong Hongyun runs a clinic at Building 42 in the dormitory area of the cotton mill. On March 13, she was arrested. It was said that she was turned in because she clarified the truth about Falun Gong at the clinic.
- Ms. Chang Jinfu lives in Xidayuan, Baoding City. She was arrested in Beijing because she distributed truth-clarifying materials. She is currently detained at the Xinshi District Police Department in Baoding City. Details are under investigation.
Additionally, a few days ago, police from the Dingxing County Police Department went from place to place harassing Falun Gong practitioners listed on their black list. Around March 12-13, two Falun Gong practitioners from Dingxing County were arrested. Details are under investigation.
It is said that Party officials just had a meeting in Shijiazhuang City. They plan to intensify their persecution of Falun Gong during the run-up to the Olympic Games in Beijing.
