Individuals who have exposed the illegal detention, torture and deaths of Falun Gong practitioners in Chinese police custody have been charged with “leaking state secrets,” and sentenced to prison terms or held in detention and tortured themselves.
On March 3, 2003, Dafa practitioner Tang Fafen was illegally sentenced to two years of forced labor. She was brutally tortured in the Zizhong Female Labor Camp in Sichuan Province. On April 12, 2003, Tang Fafen was released, on the verge of death, and passed away at home two days later.
I am a female Falun Dafa practitioner who was going to college in 2000. In July of that year, I went to Tiananmen to appeal for Falun Gong by doing the peaceful sitting meditation. Police dragged me into a vehicle, sent me to the police station, detained me for three days in a detention center, and later locked me in the Beijing Liaison Office.
In order to stop her from cultivating Dafa, a guard grabbed
her hair and slammed her head against the wall. The next day, she passed away
as a result of the severe injury she had sustained.
On June 10, 2001, Mr. Chen and his sister were arrested at the Donghuayuan Bus Station in Huailai County because they were openly discussing Falun Gong in public. The director and nine policemen of the Donghuayuan Police Station made the arrest.
On June 10, 1999, because of Jiang Zemin’s personal will and abuse of power, the “610 Office” was specifically created to persecute Falun Gong, with absolute power over each level of administration in the Party and all other political and judiciary systems.
Ms. Wang told reporters that Jiang’s regime arrested her family members because she narrated her experience of brutal persecution in China, and her participation in international lawsuits holding Jiang responsible for his crimes. Her family members are not Falun Gong practitioners. Jiang’s regime carries out a policy of “guilt by implication” to retaliate and persecute her family members.
“The Chinese regime’s current cover-up of the SARS outbreak is sadly an indicator of a much larger problem,” “Since 1999, Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, the U.S. government and many other reputable sources have documented hundreds of deaths of Falun Gong practitioners in China from torture and other abuse, yet to this day, the Chinese regime maintains that not a single Falun Gong practitioner has died in custody from police torture or abuse.”
We are family members of Falun Gong practitioners in China, people of all ages, from infants to elders. Since July 20, 1999, practitioners have suffered all kinds of terrible tortures.
I’m a Dafa practitioner in Mainland China, and I’m over three years old. I can recite many of Master’s articles and poems from Hong Yin. I especially like listening to Master teaching the Fa and Falun Dafa music.
