Apologies if this may be in the wrong section, but due to the huge amount of text I thought it would be more fitting to have it in Topics of Interest & Research section.

Notes on China's victims who were mostly Falun Gong (also known as Falun Dafa) believers:

1st Victim: Ms. Zhao Chunying

Ms. Zhao Chunying, 56 years old, was a resident of Baoquanwei, Xiaohengshan Mine, Hengshan District, Jixi City, Heilongjiang Province. Because she went to clarify the truth of Falun Gong, she was detained in the Jixi City No. 2 Detention Center since April 17, 2003. On May 10, 2003, her family was notified that she had died. Her body was found to be covered with injuries.

Prior to practicing Falun Dafa, Ms. Zhao Chunying suffered from necrosis in the femur joint and from dizziness. She used to walk very slowly. After she started practicing Falun Gong in 1998, Ms. Zhao recovered fully, and walked very lightly and easily. When Falun Dafa was persecuted in China, Zhao Chunying was forcibly sent to Wanjia Forced Labor Camp in Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province, because she clarified the truth on behalf of Falun Dafa. She was tortured mentally and physically there. Later, she exposed how she was persecuted on the Internet, and the police found out. The director of Hengshan Police Station, Yu Baoshan, leading four other police officers, arrested her on April 15, between 7 and 8 PM. She was sent to Jixi City No. 2 Detention Center on April 17. Her family was notified on May 10 that she had died.

Ms. Zhao's body was kept in the Jixi Funeral Home. Her family members were extremely shocked upon seeing her body, which was covered with injuries. Her eyes were slightly open, her face was a purple-blue color and there was a big crack on the back of her head. There were bloodstains everywhere, and her ribs were fractured, two on each side. Her bones and the joints on her arms were clearly visible; the condition of her body was extremely tragic to see. Her family decided to take photos and lodge an appeal regarding her death. The guards tried to block them, telling the family that no photos were allowed. Ms. Zhao's family tried with all their might, and finally managed to take several photos. After that, the forensic doctor examined the body once, but lied under police pressure, saying that her body might have been wounded due to self-inflicted punches, or because she was sick, or that perhaps she had been beaten to death by prisoners. Her family members asked him, "Why do you refuse to say that it is possible that she was beaten to death by police?" The doctor went totally silent.

Ms. Zhao's family has appealed for justice for her death over the past 4 months but have not obtained any results so far.

Ms. Zhao Chunying is the fifth Falun Dafa practitioner known to have died as a direct result of the persecution in the Jixi region. We publish five photos, as well as one photo taken before death. We are investigating the people who are responsible for Ms. Zhao's death. We will further follow up on her case, expose the evil, and bring the killers to justice as soon as possible.

2nd victim: Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Gao Rongrong

Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Gao Rongrong was an accountant at the Luxun Fine Arts College in Shenyang City.

The guards at the Longshan Labor Camp in Shenyang City shocked 36-year-old Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Gao Rongrong's face and other parts of her body for nearly seven hours with electric batons, which severely disfigured her face. Ms. Gao is presently being held in Room 0533, Division Two in the Orthopedics Department at No. 1 Hospital affiliated with the China Medical University in Shenyang City.

Prior to this incident, Falun Gong practitioners Ms. Wang Xiuyuan and Ms. Wang Hong were tortured to the brink of death at the same Longshan Labor Camp and died several days after they were released.

On May 7, 2004, Gao Rongrong's face is covered with burns from electric baton shocks. The picture was taken ten days after the torture.

Gao Rongrong, 36 years old, an accountant at the Luxun Fine Arts College in Shenyang City, persisted in her practice of Falun Dafa. When the persecution began in 1999, she was a major target of the persecution. She lost her job because of the persecution, and she went to Beijing to appeal for Dafa but was arrested and held for several months. She was sent to the Longshan Forced Labor Camp in July 2003.

On May 7, 2004, Tang Yubao, deputy head of the No. 2 Brigade, team leader Jiang Zhaohua, called Ms. Gao Rongrong to the duty office and shocked her with electric batons for 6-7 hours, from 3:00 p.m. to after 9:00 p.m. She sustained burns on her face, head and neck, which caused her face to swell and become disfigured. Her face was covered with blisters, her hair was matted with blood and pus was adhering to her scorched skin. She could only open her eyes a crack because of the swollen face and her mouth was severely swollen and deformed. Even inmates who had lived with her day and night for a long time could not recognize her. Picture 2 shows her face after the blisters had dried up, with the scars still present. The scars on some parts of her face are thick, which shows the severity of the electric shock. The perpetrators shocked many parts of her face repeatedly; many blisters and burn scars have overlapping layers.

Since Ms. Gao was detained at the Longshan Forced Labor Camp, her body was severely damaged from the torture. She had pain in the area of her liver and abdomen; she had an intermittent fever and persistent nausea, and could not eat. Deputy head Tang Yubao of the No. 2 Brigade slapped her face until she lost hearing in one ear. Yue Jun, head of the No. 1 Brigade, ordered inmates to humiliate her by cutting her hair until it was close to her scalp on the top of her head. Picture 3 was taken when some hair had grown back.

Gao Rongrong suffered humiliation; the hair on top of her head was cut very short

On March 22, 2004, Gao Rongrong refused to attend a Dafa-slandering meeting. Tang Yubao pulled her off her bed, grabbed her by the neck and dragged her outside to beat her. Several team leaders pinned Gao Rongrong to a chair. Tang Yubao also ordered two team leaders to carry Ms. Gao into the Administration Section office and cuff her to a heating pipe, and then they beat her and shocked her head, face, neck, hands and feet with electric batons for half an hour. Later, labor camp head Li Fengshi walked in and ignored the lawless guards' abuse of Gao Rongrong; instead, he said to her, "This is an autocratic government agency. What do you think the handcuffs and electric batons are there for? I don't believe they can't discipline you, little Gao Rongrong."

In an attempt to escape from the inhuman tortures on May 7, Gao Rongrong jumped from the 2nd floor office window, fracturing her pelvis, thigh and legs.

Picture was taken on the eighth day after the incident. Because of the circumstances at the time and the camera's quality, the picture is not very clear, but we can see electric shock scars on both of her ankles. The electric shock injuries on the sides of her legs were more serious than shown in the picture because we were not able to get the pictures taken from a proper angle. We can see bruises from her being kicked on the front of her right shin, and the area and severity of injuries are greater on her left calf and thigh. The doctor diagnosed that she sustained two fractures on her pelvis, her left leg was severely fractured and her right heel was broken. She was too weak to undergo an operation.

Gao Rongrong was too weak to undergo an operation

The Longshan Labor Camp and Shenyang City Judicial Bureau claimed the electrical shock scars on Gao Rongrong's face and body were from her fall from the second floor. It has been two months since the disabling incident took place and Gao Rongrong's condition has not improved.

On the same day as May 7, Tang Yubao also shocked the faces of Falun Gong practitioners Jin Kegui, Liang Shujie and others. Jin Kegui's face was severely scorched and swollen over a large area. Her eyes were black and blue, and pus seeped from her broken skin. She was limp from the beating. Her daughter tried to visit her, but was refused by the labor camp.

In April 2004, the Longshan Labor Camp detained 52-year-old Falun Gong practitioner Wang Xiuyuan from the Shenhe District, Shenyang City with an extended term. She was on the brink of death, and passed away on April 27, 2004, one week after she was released.

In 2001, Falun Gong practitioner Wang Hong was tied up, forced to squat, and force-fed at the Longshan Labor Camp until her kidneys failed. She died in late August 2001, several days after she was released.

In order to be promoted to a provincial-level work unit, the authorities in the Longshan Labor Camp posted signs that read "Scientific Administration and Civilized Law Execution." Head Li Fengshi often personally participated in the persecution of Falun Gong practitioners. He ordered the beating and torture of practitioners who refused to work or refused to have their pictures taken, including Gao Rongrong, Su Huihuan, Sun Yan, and Feng Guifen. According to the investigation by the World Organization to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong Practitioners, in late 2001, the Longshan Labor Camp received a 400,000 Yuan reward for its "achievement" in persecuting Falun Gong.

According to what we know so far, Gao Rongrong is being held in Room 0533, Division Two, Orthopedics Department at No. 1 Hospital, affiliated with the China Medical University in Shenyang City.

3rd victim: Wei Zaixin

Falun Dafa practitioner Wei Zaixin, male, 63 years old, was a senior engineer at the School of Advanced Technological Studies in Fushun City, Liaoning Province. On February 7, 2002, he went to the home of a fellow practitioner where he was abducted, beaten, and cruelly tortured by the police from Section One of the Police Department of Fushun City, Liaoning Province. Police from the Liangzhan Street Police Station were also present to help extort a confession from him. After being tortured for the entire night, he was sent to the intensive control team in Wujiabao Forced Labor Camp. Because of Wei's firm steadfast commitment to Falun Dafa, Wujiabao Forced Labor Camp officials forbade Wei Zaixin's family members from visiting Wei or sending him clothes or other items.

In June 2002, Wei Zaixin was sent to the No.2 Detention Center in Shizilou, Jiangjun District by the Jiangjun Police Station in Fushun City to await his sentence. While Wei was detained there, the police in the detention center instigated criminal inmates to inhumanly abuse him. In July, the Police Department sent Wei Zaixin, who was on the verge of death due to torture, to the city hospital and asked his family members to pick him up. On November 15, 2002, because Wei Zaixin was so seriously injured from the torture by the police, he failed to respond to any medical treatment, and passed away, suffering a wrongful death.

EDIT: The second victim, Ms. Gao Rongrong has since died according to the Amnesty International Annual Report (page 90) found here.

the chinese government seems to have no respect for life be it human or otherwise. on the other hand, many of the chinese people have no respect for animal life. its a pathetically sick county and i am damn sure glad i don't live there.

[ernyzaz]

guys they born as babies cute little creatures, no one deserves to be tortured the society made these people torture other people so sick sick sick society... cant stand it

[conworldus]

The Falungong is known to self inflict injuries and even death because it is a fucking cult and a fucking cult does that because they make you crazy. If we can torture people like this we might as well kill them and silence them, instead of sending them to hospitals and letting press all over it and get brain dead comments from TwistedPrincess. Why Don't shit on my country we are just fine.

You know I met a chinese man in a chinese buffet. He worked there. His English was messed up but a bit understandable if you listened closely. And I do.
He seemed friendly enough but pushy and a bit strange. I asked him about Falun Gong and he went off on a rant about how those people are crazy so the best thing to do with them is beat them up and kill them. He was just full of hatred for anyone who uses this exercise. Just like this brainwashed commie ***** hater here. Trying to tell us that a Falun Gong enthusiast will break thier own legs and slam thier head into the wall until they are dead. Ya Riiight!. Chinese society is so effed up by now it is amazing. They eat baby soup now, beat dogs to death cause they think the adrenaline contaminated meat will give them energy, forcibly take babies from poor farmers and sell for adoptions and even have special buses equipped with a medical team and everything needed to rip the organs out of unwilling prisoners for sell on the world organ market. They don't even bother to hide it but they have thier paid monkeys troll the internet and put up hateful retorts to anyone who exposes them.
