Investigative Report on the Participation of Officials of Sichuan CCP Committee and Government in the Persecution of Falun Gong

Introduction

Since July 20, 1999, some officials in CCP committee (CCPC) of Sichuan Province and Sichuan Provincial Government have been following Jiang Zemin’s regime to persecute Falun Gong. They have resorted to inhumane methods to persecute Falun Gong practitioners in Sichuan province, including brainwashing by means of violent tortures, searching practitioners’ houses and confiscating their properties, detaining practitioners illegally, and applying all kinds of torture methods during incarceration and long-term forced labor. According to information published on Minghui Net [1], up to January 13 2005, at least 81 Falun Gong practitioners have been confirmed being persecuted to death (excluding 39 death cases in Chongqing City, which was originally a city in Sichuan Province, and now a city under direct jurisdiction of central government). This figure places Sichuan Province in the fifth position in the country in terms of death toll of Falun Gong practitioners. (The names of Falun Gong practitioners who have been persecuted to death are listed in the appendix.)

The leaders who are primarily responsible for the persecution of Falun Gong in Sichuan Province are Zhou Yongkang, the former secretary of CCPC (Chinese Communist Party Committee) of Sichuan Province, Zhang Zhongwei, governor of Sichuan Province, Wang Sanyun, deputy secretary of CCPC of Sichuan Province, Yan Zhenggang, director of the “Provincial Office of Preventing and Handling the Evil Cult Problem,” (also called the “610 Office”). Starting from the second half of 2002, the official title of this “610 Office” was changed to “the Office of Leadership Group of the CCP Committee of Sichuan Province Responsible for Maintaining Social Order and Coordinating Anti-Terrorism Tasks.” Detailed planning of the persecution is carried out by the Provincial Political and Judiciary Committee, in concert with the Department of Public Security, Department of Justice, Procuratorate, court and related departments. The individual municipal and county level Political and Judiciary Committee, Department of Public Security and Department of Justice are responsible for implementing the orders from provincial levels. The Nanmusi Female Forced Labor Camp in Zizhong County [2], Sichuan Province Xinhua Forced Labor Camp in Mianyang City, Sichuan Province [3] , Deyang City Prison [4] , the Red-cross Hospital for Psychiatric Prevention in Pengzhou City, Sichuan Province [5], People’s Hospital of Qingyang District, Chengdu City of Sichuan Province [6] and others serve as the “concentration camps” for the persecution. Falun Gong practitioners are being persecuted physically and mentally in these places. Sichuan Province is one of the worst provinces involved in persecuting Falun Gong.
