Thanks tatiana!
Mrs. Tatiana A Kostanian said:Hello Eval. For over a year or so, I have been working arduously with the Falun Gong members in my city as well in New York, plus placed on two websites a global petition against the harvesting of organs and tissues by the Chinese Communists; as well the Chinese Communists selling of these innocent victims lives of their organs and tissues and the ongoing transplant surgeries they perform continuously today, all the while the Beijing Olympics were being forced down our throats. The Chinese Communists have virtually enhanced their nation’s financial portfolio, by the selling of their victim’s organs and tissues, in the billions of dollars. I have spoken as well to social workers, medical peoples here in the States who have received these actual medical bills to insurance companies as well Medicare (and other international insurances) to demand payment for these transplant surgeries of their wealthy patients. What most do not know in the globe today, is that once these patients go for a transplant, when they arrive home (most wealthy Chinese patients) they are never given any medical records, or medical records of the victims who were/are killed? Naturally, almost all hospitals, physicians, medical personnel will not take on any if these patients because they have no medical records of follow up or medical records of their host's (victims). So they in turn these transplant patients themselves become victims as well and will be soon enough at death's door.
I am a dialysis patient being kept alive. I have spoken out, and continue to speak out against these horrors of the Chinese Communists. I have met many Falun Gong members whose loved ones have and are still incarcerated and or have met and lived through such close encounters, torture, etc. I have been written up in the Epoch times, and work ongoing with David Kilgour, (past MP in Ottawa) and his partner, David Mattas. We must continue to bring global attention and make sure all responsible persons are found guilty. I put nothing past the exercises of what the Chinese Communists are doing to innocent civilians and children. I am as well working with Tibetan Monks, and worry as well of their lives, and the outcome of the Chinese Communists in Tibet. It is chilling to say the least. Thank God for David Kilgour and David Mattas and the Committee Investigating Persecution Of Falun Gong. (i serve on that as well). Let us pray that sanity will one day return for all, and freedom and peace the most important to reign.
P.S. Please do not let up on placing a glaring light on what is transpiring to Mainland Communist China's very own people. It is more than a tragedy that is in continuance without letup transpiring inside Mainland China today. I hope others here and round the globe, will join in helping to getting out the news about the genocide of and to the Falun Gong!

I think it's an important issue and that no one should be killed for his beliefs (especially in such brutal and unhuman way). You have rised the awareness of one more person. Thank's and good luck...

At least 3209 practitioners are confirmed to have died in the persecution of Falun Gong. Their names are listed below. Links are provided to summary statistical data, as well as to brief summaries for each of the confirmed death cases listed.
The Chinese Communist Party (CCP) keeps tight-fisted control over details of the persecution, so many thousand more death cases remain unconfirmed. When the truth is told and a final tally is made in years to come, the total number of deaths and other casualties could be shockingly high.
For example, an independent report prepared by two prominent Canadians (David Kilgour, Canada's longest serving Member of Parliament and former Secretary of State for Asia Pacific, and David Matas, a human rights lawyer well known for his work related to the Holocaust) comes to the shocking conclusion that mass organ-harvesting of Falun Gong practitioners has taken place over the last several years. It appears that tens of thousands of practitioners have been custom-killed for their organs. The illicitly harvested hearts, livers, lungs, corneas (and more) were sold at huge profits to unwitting transplant patients, many from outside China. Meanwhile, the practitioners' murdered bodies were quietly and quickly cremated to destroy the evidence. (Bloody Harvest - Revised Report into Allegations of Organ Harvesting of Falun Gong Practitioners in China http://organharvestinvestigation.net/)
The persecution of Falun Gong reaches almost every corner of the country, with deaths confirmed in virtually every one of China's provinces, autonomous regions and province-level municipalities.
In addition to the deaths, over 100,000 have been sentenced to forced labor camps. Many thousand mentally-healthy practitioners have been locked up in psychiatric hospitals, brutally beaten, and drugged into submission with anti-psychotic drugs. Huge numbers have been forced into brainwashing sessions organized to coerce them to renounce their beliefs. Tens of thousands have been detained, jailed and/or imprisoned.
Torture is widespread and systematic, ordered by top Party officials to help wipe out the practice. Police and CCP officials at all levels routinely extort huge sums from those they threaten and arrest, and their families.
Countless families have been broken up, and countless practitioners dare not return to their homes, wanting to avoid arrest and to protect their families and friends from the CCP's guilt-by-association policy.
Hopefully, the horrific experiences and graphic photos presented here will lead all those who read them to stand up and speak out to help stop the persecution of Falun Gong.

Organ Harvesting from Living Falun Gong Practitioners by the Chinese Government
Introduction
Mounting evidence tells a terrible tale of mutilation and murder in China. Witnesses and Chinese physicians reveal that persons affiliated with the Falun Gong cultivation practice are being killed for their organs, bones, and tissues, which are sold and transplanted at enormous profit. The perpetrators are officials of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), acting in collaboration with surgeons, police, prison authorities, and military officials. Victims are held in concentration camps prior to having their organs harvested. As many as 36 such camps are said to exist, the largest holding up to 120,000 persons. Multiple accounts suggest that a flurry of organ harvesting is now taking place, coupled with the killing of camp detainees; CCP authorities are reportedly hastening to destroy all evidence of the organ harvesting atrocity. The move follows exposure by Western media and human rights groups.
A re-enactment of organ harvesting from living Falun Gong practitioners for profit, at an event exposing the CCP's organ harvesting crimes. A heart or liver can fetch hundreds of thousands of dollars. Overseas patients are major recipients of Chinese organ transplants.
Chart from the Orient Organ Transplant Center Website (http://www.ootc.net ) (Tianjin City) showing escalating numbers of organ transplants since 1999, when the persecution of Falun Gong started. The website claims, "from January 2005 to now, we have done 647 liver transplants - 12 of them done this week; the average waiting time is 2 weeks." The chart indicates that from virtually a standing start in 1998 (when it performed only 9 liver transplants) by 2005 it had completed fully 2,248.

Leads Pointing to Illegal Organ Transplants: Media Expose the Illegal Organ Transplant Market in Shenyang, Liaoning Province
(Clearwisdom.net) Since the exposure of the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) crimes of removing organs from living Falun Gong practitioners and cremating their bodies to destroy the evidence, the Falun Dafa Association and Minghui/Clearwisdom website have launched the "Coalition to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong in China (CIPFG)," and is collecting evidence from all sources. Please find below recently discovered information. We sincerely hope that people will step forward and expose the cruel killing of Falun Dafa practitioners, as well as the collusion among all forced labor camps, prisons and hospitals in China, to thus help stop the persecution.
1) Media Expose the Illegal Organ Transplant Market in Shenyang of Liaoning Province
The Liaoshen Evening Paper published an article, "Female Patient Strolls in Expo Garden after Heart Transplant" on May 23, 2006. The article was a clear sign of the illegal organ transplant market in Shenyang.
"In May 2005, Ms. Wu from Shanghai suddenly suffered heart problems while visiting Shenyang, and her life was in danger. In order to save her life, Shenzhou Hospital (former Shenyang Medical Institute No. 2 Hospital) decided to perform heart transplant surgery immediately. They found a matching donor within a short time. On the morning of May 20, Ms. Wu had a heart transplant. ... One year later, Ms. Wu came to Shenyang again, ... the experts at Shenzhou Hospital did a full checkup on Ms. Wu."
Since the exposure of the CCP's crimes of removing organs from live Falun Gong practitioners, the CCP media have published many reports regarding organ transplants, including such information as "free organ transplant," "voluntarily donated organs," "family donates organ" and so on, to deceive people, mislead the public and cover up its crimes. However in New England of the United States, the general waiting period for a kidney is around three to seven years. Patients waiting for a heart transplant have to wait even longer.
This article does not mention the details of the donor and surgeon who operated, but it does say a patient from Shanghai suddenly suffered heart trouble in May 2005, and Shenzhou Hospital was able to do the heart transplant for her on the morning of May 20. The hospital found a compatible donor and completed the surgery for an emergency patient from another city within the short space of approximately ten days. Everything happened so rapidly. This point alone is enough to suggest that there is a large illegal organ market in Shenyang.
2) Chen Rongshan of Jinzhou City People's Liberation Army 205 Hospital Has Performed 568 kidney transplant surgeries
Investigation shows that the Urology Department of Jinzhou City People's Liberation Army 205 Hospital has performed kidney transplant surgeries during recent years. Its advertisement says that its Urology Department is "the biggest organ transplant center and Hemodialysis Center in Liaoxi. It performed over 40 successful kidney transplants on the average per year and that the surgery success rate is 100%." Relating to the organ harvesting from live Falun Dafa practitioners, what does "over 40 kidney transplants" each year mean?
Our reliable internal source alleges that this Urology Department can find a liver donor for patients within a week. On May 23, 2006, page B4 of the Liaoxi Business Paper published an article promoting the chief of this Urology Department and director physician, Chen Rongshan. The article boasts that Chen Rongshan "has performed as many as 568 kidney transplants in recent years, with a success rate of 100%. The first-year kidney survival rate is as high as about 98%, and has achieved the highest success rate in the international organ transplant arena. His specialized technology is recognized throughout Liaoxi. Patients admire him and come from everywhere. He even had patients from Taiwan, Singapore, South Korea, Malaysia, and other countries." It is obvious that finding a live donor in about a week and performing 568 kidney transplant surgeries indicates that Chen has access to a large living organ bank, a killing machine for the CCP regime.
The articles also mentions two kidney transplants. In April 2002, a patient with kidney disease was at death's door. Chen was ready immediately to perform a kidney transplant. According to the report, "The patient was for 10 days under special care and the kidney transplant surgery was successful. A dying patient regained life. For this Chen was recognized as a transplant specialist." The other case happened at the end of 2002. Chen Rongshan did a kidney transplant for a patient from Shandong, "Finally, his surgery was extremely successful." However, while one life "regains life" with "great success," wasn't another life, most likely a Falun Gong practitioner's life, taken?
We have investigated and collected evidence for several days. According to a witness, in 2001, this hospital performed five kidney transplants, one after the other. Our witness was one of them. The other four people died soon after the operation. Only she survived because she practices Falun Dafa. In autumn of 2004, a young woman in her 20s from Jinzhou had a kidney transplant in the 205 Hospital. The hospital said that the donor was a prisoner in a forced labor camp in Panjin. The doctor said this prisoner was over 20 and very healthy. The patient asked the doctor, "How long will it take to get the live kidney?" The answer was, "Half a day." She also recalled that during the two to three days of her hospital stay and surgery, this hospital transplanted four to five kidneys. Another person testified that in the month of February, 2006, four kidney transplant surgeries were done in this hospital. One of the patients was the principal of Jinzhou City Taihe Hospital, called Li Wei. He spent 60,000 yuan for the kidney transplant, but died after over a month. Afterwards, Li Wei's relatives and friends were all surprised about the fast speed of his kidney transplant (completed within a week), but were even more shocked by his sudden death.
We are still investigating more facts.
We allege that the above instances show that Jinzhou 205 Hospital is using organs from live Falun Dafa practitioners for transplant surgeries. They are committing monstrous crimes!
We call on people worldwide to immediately use all means to stop Jinzhou 205 Hospital from brutally killing Falun Dafa practitioners.

3) Qinduankou Prison in Hubei Province Beat Falun Dafa Practitioners, Suspected to Participate in Organ Harvesting
Officer Xiao Wenhua of Qinduankou Prison in Hubei Province instigated Strict Discipline Team prisoner Wang Zhonghua to beat Falun Dafa practitioner Zhou Jiangang. Wang said, when telling other prisoners to beat Zhou Jiangang: "You can beat him anywhere, but not the lower back [where the kidney is located]."

Falun Gong is a traditional Chinese spiritual discipline that is Buddhist in nature. It consists of moral teachings, a meditation, and four gentle exercises that resemble tai-chi and are known in Chinese culture as “qigong.” The latter are a truly unique, and very much enjoyable, way to improve the health and condition of one’s body.
At the core of Falun Gong are the values of truth, compassion, and forbearance (or in Chinese, Zhen, Shan, Ren). Falun Dafa teaches that these are the most fundamental qualities of the universe itself, and takes them to be a guide for daily life and practice. Falun Gong is also known as “Falun Dafa.”
By 1999 Falun Gong was reported to have grown to become the largest, and fastest growing, practice of the sort in Chinese if not world history. In just seven years since its 1992 introduction to the public, an estimated 70-100 million persons in China were by then making Falun Gong a part of their daily lives.
In Asia spiritual practices of this variety are often referred to as ways of “cultivation”, or “self-cultivation,” and form an important part of traditional Chinese culture. Various Daoist, Buddhist, and Confucian practices fit this rubric.
Through consistent and dedicated practice, the student of Falun Gong comes to achieve a state of selflessness, greater insight and awareness, inner purity, and balance—the inner workings of what might be called true health. Ultimately he or she approaches what in the Asian tradition is known as “enlightenment” or “attaining the Dao” (or “Way”).
While Falun Gong aspires to inner transformation of the self, it nevertheless typically translates outwardly into positive change in the world, insofar as the practitioner becomes a more patient family member, a more conscientious employee, a more giving member of the community, and so on.
Falun Gong has thus been the subject of many citations, awards, and proclamations as conferred by government officials and a variety of organizations. Many who practice Falun Gong have been the recipients of service awards in their communities. The practice’s founder, Mr. Li Hongzhi, is a four-time Nobel Peace Prize nominee and was nominated by the European Parliament for the Sakharov Prize For Freedom of Thought.
Few people today are aware that the practice and its followers received much in the way of official recognition in China during the 1990s, prior to a dramatic, and violent, change in political winds in 1999 which saw the practice banned.
In 1993, Mr. Li Hongzhi was named the “Most Welcomed Qigong Master” in Beijing and bestowed by an official body with the Award for Advancing Frontier Science. That same year, The People's Public Security News—the official newspaper of China’s Ministry of Public Security—praised Mr. Li for his contributions “in promoting the traditional crime-fighting virtues of the Chinese people, in safeguarding social order and security, and in promoting rectitude in society.”
By 1999, Chinese officials went so far as to quantify Falun Gong’s benefits, such as when one official from China’s National Sports Commission, speaking with U.S. News & World Report, declared that Falun Dafa “can save each person 1,000 yuan in annual medical fees. If 100 million people are practicing it, that’s 100 billion yuan saved per year in medical fees.” The same official went on to note that, “Premier Zhu Rongji is very happy about that.”
Today Falun Gong is practiced freely in more 70 countries around the world, with clubs and associations existing in a range of cities, companies, universities, and other settings. Regrettably in China, its country of origin, it is currently banned and the subject of gross human rights violations at the hands of communist rulers.

Psychological Abuse
17 May 2008
The goal of forcing people who practice Falun Gong to renounce their beliefs and cooperate with the authorities has been, from the outset, a central part of the Chinese Communist Party’s campaign.
While every form of physical torture involves mental torture as well (whether being forced awake for over a week or being electrocuted in the genitalia), Falun Gong practitioners have also been specifically targeted for psychological persecution. This has come in two forms: brainwashing and psychiatric torture.
Brainwashing is the more widespread, with facilities across at least 21 of 22 provinces in mainland China, and four of the five “autonomous regions.” These brainwashing classes are also held at each administrative level: provincial, municipal, county, and township. According to one analysis, the density of brainwashing facilities is greater than that of prisons, labor camps, and mental hospitals. (report)
Reeducation
Brainwashing often includes physical torture [see torture section], with the goal of “transforming,” or reprogramming practitioners to the point that they abandon their spiritual practice. Authorities promise adherents that their ordeal will be over once they sign a three-fold “statement of guarantee” displaying the “correct” understanding about Falun Gong, promising not to protest ever again, and disclosing information about friends and family who practice Falun Gong.
The mental anguish does not stop there, as the transformed practitioner is then immediately required to not only stop believing in Falun Gong, but to turn against it. Once a transformation statement is signed, practitioners are then often taken in front of television cameras and asked to read the statement with their “new understanding” about Falun Gong for use in propaganda materials; if the statement is not satisfactorily repentant or insufficiently disparaging of Falun Gong and its founder, the process must be repeated.
Then the recently “transformed” are quickly obliged to take an active role in transforming other detained practitioners. Those who prove particularly capable are even taken on speaking tours to other prisons and labor camps to assist transformation efforts there. Prominent others have been used in efforts to change international perceptions of Falun Gong, as when PRC diplomats took U.S. resident Teng Chunyan to visit congressional offices.
How to break a practitioner
The accounts of Falun Gong adherents who have emerged, often mentally scared, from prolonged brainwashing sessions reveal that the cadres’ methodology has become increasingly sophisticated over time. Still, the basic approach is consistently as follows:
1.
Isolate them and lock them up, either alone or with criminals.
2.
Strip them of clothes and personal dignity – drill into their mind that they are criminals who have committed a terrible crime - people with dangerous mental problems.
3.
Deprive them of sleep for days on end; if they fall asleep wake them up immediately with a blow or loud sound. Keep doing this until they can no longer keep track of time or remember basic details about their life.
4.
Force them to watch 10 hours a day of video vilifying Falun Gong and, especially, its founder Li Hongzhi. Play the tapes at full volume and do not allow them to look away.
5.
Convince them that the only way they will ever be able to leave again is if they sign the three-fold statement of guarantee and that everything will be over once they do.
6.
Bring in their parents, children, and siblings intervention-style to cry and even kneel in front of them, begging them to come home. Bring in their spouses to threaten with divorce.
7.
Threaten, and if necessarily, take away their jobs, pensions, or enrollment in university. Threaten that their family members will also lose their salaries and education opportunities.
8.
Bring in transformed former-Falun Gong practitioners (ideally someone the person was previously very close to) to help them see the light. Alternate one-on-one sessions with ones in which many people talk at the same time.
9.
Tell them Falun Gong is banned around the world, since there is an international consensus that it is just like the Branch Davidians, Aum Shinrykiyo and other “evil cults.” They may not accept this at first, so just repeat it hundreds of times daily for weeks or months.
10.
Replace Falun Gong by instilling in their minds a different ideology – try Marxism (make them read The Story of Lei Feng, Mao Zedong’s Selected Works, etc.) and, if that fails, give them the Bible, Buddhist Scriptures, etc.
11.
Beat them.
12.
Tell them this is all for their own good.
The above, of course, does not include the extreme physical violence and sexual assault detailed elsewhere in this site or the use of psychotropic drugs described below.
John Pomfret and Philip P. Pan of the Washington Post provide a vivid account of how mental and physical torture are combined in efforts to break the Falun Gong (news). Individuals who have gone through this process describe at “spiritual murder” (testimony).
Once released from brainwashing classes, practitioners and their families are then forced to retroactively pay tuition and room and board for their time there. (report)
Hundreds, if not thousands of the Falun Gong have been tortured in mental asylum, where they are injected with unknown psychotropic drugs (more on psychiatric torture).
For many, however, these transformation efforts have proven a useless, if painful process. After returning home and collecting themselves from the traumatic experience, many resume practicing Falun Gong.
Some even post statements online nullifying any statement they made against Falun Gong under coercion. According to the Falun Gong website Clearwisdom.net, where such statements known as “solemn declarations” are posted, over 380,000 such declarations have been recorded as of March 2008.
