Facts of the Persecution

1. Falun Dafa Practitioners Han Yingli and Qiu Shuqin from Beijing Are Abused

Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Han Yingli, an employee of Qinghua University, was sentenced in 2003 to four years in the Beijing Women's Prison. Another Falun Dafa practitioner from Qinghua University, Ms. Qiu Shuqin, has been held for an extended term in solitary confinement, with around the clock monitoring, but escaped on April 7, 2004. Falun Dafa practitioner Ms. Yuan Lin, an employee of Beijing University, was sentenced to eight years in the Beijing Women's Prison. There are many Falun Dafa practitioners detained there, and all of them are closely monitored. They are not allowed to talk to each other or meet together. These "strict control wards" are for practitioners who have remained steadfast. Ms. Zhang Shurong was shocked with electric batons, causing severe swelling and burns on her lips and face. She suffered a nervous breakdown and has lost the ability to care for herself. Most "Personal cangues" (1) are drug addicts, and many are very cruel. They play loud music during the day to cover their crimes of torture, and horrible screams can be heard constantly during the night. Ms. He Wenyi has endured inhuman suffering from being tortured, and she has been transferred back and forth between the hospital and the "strict control ward."
