[Harbin City, Heilongjiang Province] Tyranny: the Police of Jiang Zemin's Regime Forced People to Swear at Others
To prevent Dafa Practitioners from going to Beijing to appeal during the time when the People's Congress Conference was being held, many policemen and plain-clothed police paced up and down on the trains heading to Beijing from Harbin City. They examined the passengers and tried to identify Falun Gong practitioners among them. They also forced every passenger to curse Dafa, the coarser the better. For those who refused to do so, the police would either interrogate and examine them or forcibly take them away.
Many passengers, especially those who brought their children with them, were extremely angry at the police's behavior that violated their human rights.
Afterwards, the passengers discussed how children were educated and taught from an early age not to swear at people or use any dirty language. However, today in China, the good cannot be distinguished from the bad. The police, who violated the law while they executed the law, actually forced people and children to swear at people and use dirty language. What's wrong with China today?
In addition, prior to the People's Congress Conference being held in Beijing, some steadfast practitioners in Harbin City were arrested and sent to drug rehabilitation centers to attend the so-called "Education Class." [a class to turn Falun Dafa practitioners away from practicing Falun Dafa, curse the Fa and Teacher Li, and promise not go to Beijing to appeal for Falun Dafa/translator].
[Beijing] Dafa Practitioner Su Wuhua from the China Institute of Science and Technology Information was Forcibly Sent to a "Transformation Class"
On March 8, it was said that Su Wuhua was forcibly taken away from his work place and sent to Daxing County [suburban area of Beijing] to be forcibly "transformed." His present whereabouts are unclear. His daughter is only one year old.
Su Wuhua was an employee of the Information Resource Construction Department at Wanfang Data Library LLC, China Institute of Science and Technology Information, which is subordinated directly to the Ministry of Science and Technology. Two weeks ago, the secretary of the institute's party committee seriously warned Su that he could be sent to a "Transformation Class." He said the class might be sponsored by the Department of Science and Technology or the Police Department. This had terribly frightened Su's family.
On March 8, Su Wuhua was suddenly taken away from his work unit, although he refused to go with them. His family was only notified after his arrest. The relatives questioned why they were not notified in advance. The leader of the work unit replied that it was because the other party (the transformation class) decided not to inform the family in advance, in case Su would escape. The leader also threatened that, although the term of transformation was approximately 10 days, it would be hard to know what would happen if Su could not be transformed. Beijing's Daxing County is the location of the notorious Tuanhe Detention Center that persecutes Dafa practitioners. It seems clear why the Ministry of Science and Technology chose this location to forcibly and illegally "transform" its employees.
We call on all kind-hearted and righteous people and human right organizations to condemn this illegal transgression that violated human rights.

[Jiangyuan County, Jilin Province] People at the Jiangyuan County Detention Center Forced Dafa Practitioners to Do Overtime Work and Tortured Them
Several dozen Dafa practitioners are being held at the Jiangyuan County Detention Center in Baishan City, Jilin Province. They were forced to pick 20,000 ice cream sticks a day. Later on, it was reduced to 15,000 sticks, after Dafa practitioners went on hunger strike to protest. The practitioner who could not complete the task was punished and locked up on the "execution bed" (a bed reserved for those criminals who are sentenced to death and will be executed) or hung up and suspended in the air. They had to get up to work at 5 am every day and work till 7 or 8 pm. Moreover, during the midnight hour, they had to get up and stand for 1 hour. Each of them was forced to hand in 1,000 Yuan for "deposit" when being released; otherwise they had to remain in custody. There was no receipt for the money issued to any of them. For all events and purposes, the police took the money for themselves and the Dafa practitioners will never again see their money.
