- I am a Dafa practitioner in the Shouguang City. Because I went to Beijing to appeal to the central government, the County Government escorted me back and didn't give me any food and water. Afterwards, they sent me to the City Police Station and detained me there for 15 days. Later they sent me back to the Village and detained me for more than 1 month. During the detention, I was exposed to the burning sun during the day for 5 consecutive days. At night, I was forced to stand in the courtyard and not permitted to close my eyes. At that time, it was the busy period for the autumn harvest. Only after they finished harvesting the crops, did they let me rest. After dozens of days, they tricked me into attending a "Learning Class." They forced me face down on the ground in the daytime. With my head not touching the ground and two hands on my back, I was exposed to the hot sunshine. At night, they placed bricks on my legs and beat me using leather belts. They hit my face while grabbing my hair, and kicked me repeatedly. Sometimes, three or four people surround me and hit me simultaneously. If I refused to curse our master, they wouldn't stop beating. These villains completely deprived me of the right of free speech. . One day, my boyfriend came to see me and found that my whole body was beaten black without any unbruised area. . He said : " Is this a Learning Class? You beat good people so horribly, what kind of society is this?" Just because of this sentence, those vicious people beat him brutally in the same way. After they tortured me for nine consecutive days, they forcefully sent me to a mental hospital under the fabricated excuse of mental illness. They injected medications into us. Medications that can destroy one's neural system and extorted money from us: RMB 50 per day. We were forced to stay for two months. Later the County Government fined me another RMB 6,000. After they extorted RMB 9,000 total, they released me.
- On the night of October 4th, 2000, a practitioner couple from Jitai Town, Shouguang City, Shandong Province rode bicycles to Beijing to protect Dafa. In front of Tiananmen, they were captured and questioned by police and were sent to Chaoyang detention center. The wicked police stripped their clothes and searched everywhere: they took everything belts, keys and RMB 30. After the search, they forced the couple to enter another cell, forbidding them to wear clothes. During the inquiry, these two disciples told them their names and addresses, and the police then took them to the Deputy Office of Shandong Province in Beijing. This couple was then taken to the courtyard of the County Government by the county's car. There, the police divided into two groups, with 8-10 people per group. They separated the couple and beaten them viciously. They shackled this couple's hands underneath their feet, and beat them using brooms. After two brooms were broken to pieces, they beat them using aluminum alloy plates and plastic pipes, and burned their hair with fire. Some policemen stomped on the practitioners' big toe. The nails of the big toes instantly became black and then fell off. After they got tired after beating, they used electric clubs to shock this couple. When they shocked the couple, they poured cold water onto the tops of their heads. After the electric clubs ran out of electricity;. They generated electricity using phone machines.

- From late June 2000 to late August 2000, 11 Dafa practitioners from the Shouguang City went to Beijing to appeal. After they were taken back by the County Government, they were forcibly sent to Beiluo mental hospital and they experienced inhuman torture there for 64 consecutive days. They are:
Luocheng County:
Ge Lanfeng, female, around 40 years old;
Li Jianmen, female, around 40 years old;
Xu Jinhui, female, around 30 years old;
Liang Suqing, female, around 35 years old;
Ning Xiuying, female, 32 years old;
Fu Lianhua: female, 38 years old;
Li Yichang, Li Yimin: male, 35 years old;
Wangwang County:
Yin Dexiu: female, 51 years old;
Liu Hairong: 25 years old, Yin's daughter, graduate student enrolled;
WenJia County:
Sang Xiulian: female, 42 years old.
They were detained together with with mental patients, and didn't see sunshine for 64 consecutive days. Every day, they endured miserable spiritual and physical torture. Doctors and nurses tied them to the bed, forced them to take shots and medications: three times per day without any interruption. The practitioners were injected with one kind of medication --- Dongmianling, which is supposed to be taken only by patients with severe mental illnesses. They were given another unknown medicine. The practitioners refused to cooperate with them. These evil doctors then inserted pipes into their noses and pried their mouths and teeth using chopsticks, they tortured them by vigorously moving a chopstick back and forth inside their mouths. Many disciples' mouths were full of blood.
After taking this kind of medication, one was in a drugged state and would fall down after managing to stand up. Normal people were treated like the mentally ill. The wicked doctors even said: "Here is the No.2 detention center!" After five to six days, they raised the dosage of medication. The Dafa disciples strictly conducted themselves by the criteria of a practitioner: they recited Hong Ying and Lunyu even if they were inside such a stringent environment. Dafa displayed its power: after several days, this kind of medication which would have severely destroyed one's nerves almost had no effect on the practitioners, and the disciples were even more determined to study Dafa and practice Gong.
After miserably torturing the disciples for 64 days, Beiluo mental hospital extorted from each disciple RMB 3000. The county extorted from Dafa disciple Sang Xiulian RMB 21,000. Li Jianmei was sent to a labor camp; Liu Hairong was expelled from school.
Regarding all the despicable, miserable persecutions against Dafa practitioners by the evil people in Shouguang City, Dafa practitioners solemnly warn the dregs of the relevant County Governments: when you are implementing the so-called "Orders form higher authorities", you are helping the wicked to do evil things! Compassion and evil will meet with reward and retribution. When Dafa is revealed in this world, all evil beings will be eliminated. If you don't want to be Jiang Zemin's follower, please stop the unlawful deeds that reward the evil while cruelly harming the just! Otherwise, what awaits you is the fair trial by the law and the endless retributions in thousands of hells! Bear in mind, Bear in mind !
