【新唐人2011年7月20日訊】今年的7·20，就是法輪功團體的第12個7月20號，也是中共鎮壓法輪功的第12個年頭。這個為時不短的12年，對於許多中國大陸的法輪功修煉者來說，是歴經一個出生入死，滄桑巨變的過程。他們在面對強權的鎮壓，有過絕望、痛苦，瀕臨崩潰和死亡﹔他們在鐵腕高壓面前堅持信仰，在生死交戰之際浩劫重生，最終坦然的在鏡頭下，講述他們的故事。
720特別報導，《禁頭人物》獻給大家——「他們的故事」。
這是來自河南的金昭宇，2008年她嫁到芬蘭之後，一直忙碌奔波於營救自己的母親陳真萍。金昭宇和她的芬蘭籍丈夫Tommy這幾年來見過了芬蘭政要、人權組織、大大小小的芬蘭媒體，就是希望修煉法輪功的母親陳真萍能夠獲得自由。
十多年來，金昭宇幾乎身兼母職，從20歲起獨自撫養小她九歲的妹妹。
金昭宇：「記得2000年鎮壓以後，幾乎每個新年，家中只有我和我妹妹。大年初一的時候，我和我妹妹吃著方便麵，吃著吃著都會哭起來，因為家裏沒有媽媽，家裏空蕩蕩，媽媽不是在看守所，就是在勞教所，不是在拘留所，就是在洗腦班。」
現在金昭宇的媽媽被判刑8年，目前被關押在河南省新鄉市女子監獄，年僅20歲的妹妹金昭桓也因為當地迫害法輪功組織610和警察不間斷的抓捕，迫不得已逃到了泰國，另一位來自吉林長春的蘭麗華，也是在這樣的花樣年華，遭到了警察無理的拘捕和毆打。她回憶起2002年3月5號，《長春電視》成功插播法輪功真相後，她隨後被關押7個月，巨大的精神壓力使她的外貌全變了樣。
蘭麗華：「架著我就開始走，出去之後給我塞到一個警車裡，幾個人同時對我暴打，當時的時候那件事情對我衝擊特別大，因為我那個時候才23歲，我從來沒有經歷過幾個男的對一個女的同時打，就是那種衝擊我當時就抽了，整個人渾身全部抽搐。」
與蘭麗華同是吉林人的房思邑，是一位高級中醫美容師，目前和蘭麗華都被聯合國安置在芬蘭，2010年她到日內瓦聯合國人權會上作證，講述她在獄中被藥物折磨的經歴，令在場很多人都動容落淚。
房思邑：「打得甚麼針我不知道，從那天打針的時候肚子就開始腫脹，一天比一天大，不到一個星期的時候那肚子就像快生孩子了，就比要臨生產的肚子還要大，已經成了透明的球了，我跟那些醫生說，我煉法輪功被他們迫害成這樣，只要我放回家，我會完完整整健健康康的來見你們，那個醫生抿嘴楞一下，甚麼都沒說，當時有一個醫生就說，你要是能活著就是奇蹟，我說我不但能活著，還能健康的活著。」
房思邑回憶，當時醫院有許多民眾圍觀，在這些善良人們的幫助下，獄方迫於壓力讓她保外就醫。今天房思邑以健康紅潤的樣貌接受採訪，證實了醫生口中的這個奇蹟。
在中共殘酷鎮壓法輪功長達12年的時間，有許許多多類似金昭宇、蘭麗華和房思邑的故事。共產黨使用了各種各樣的手段，想把信仰真、善、忍的好人，轉化中共洗腦下假、惡、鬥的壞人。現在居住在澳洲的曾錚，曾是「北京大學」的高材生，不料想，一心想要報效祖國，不願意出國留學的她，卻在經歴四次的關押後，被迫遠走他鄉。
曾錚：「一進去首先聽到的聲音就是蹲下，然後就是電棍，如果慢了一點電棍馬上上到你的身上，從第2天開始，每天早晨洗臉刷牙上廁所，一共只給2分鐘的時間，然後每天把你的生活安排得緊緊的，16 個小時都要你背勞教所的規則，搞得人都要崩潰了，讓你一點做人的尊嚴都沒有，每天都只想著，掙紮著不要自己瘋掉。」
這種迫害是持續而漫長的，今年盛夏的美國首府，將近2000個燭火點亮了華盛頓的夜空，悼念著那些在血腥暴力下失去生命的法輪功修煉者。還有多少的漫漫長夜需要度過，沒有人知道答案，這些法輪功追隨者只希望把他們的故事，傳遞出去，讓正義和良知與他們同在。

The Stories of Falun Dafa Practitioners
July 20, 2011 marks the 12th anniversary of
the Chinese Communist Party’s (CCP)
persecution towards Falun Dafa practitioners,
which started in 1999.
In the past 12 years, many Falun Dafa practitioners
in China have gone through fire and water.
Facing repression, they have been in despair and pain,
and at the edge of collapse and death,
yet they remained steadfast in their faith
and experienced rebirth after excruciating experiences.
Now they calmly tell their stories.
Here is a July 20th Special Report.
Jin Zhaoyu is originally from Henan Province.
She went to live in Finland in 2008
after she got married.
She has been busy rescuing her mother since then.
Her mother Chen Zhenping is a Falun Dafa practitioner.
Jin and her husband Tommy have met with Finnish politicians,
human rights organizations and the Finnish media
in the past few years, striving to rescue her mother.
For over a decade, Jin acted as a mother to her sister,
who is 9 years her junior.
Jin Zhaoyu: “Since the persecution started, only my sister
and I spent the New Years together almost every year.
On the New Year eve, we ate instant noodles and cried.
Mom was not at home, our house was empty.
Mom was at the detention center,
in the labor camp or in a brainwashing class.
Jin’s sister, who is only 20 years old,
was forced to flee to Thailand
to escape from the harassment of the police.
Lan Lihua from Changchu, Jilin Province
was also tortured by the police at a young age.
She talked about being detained for seven months
after the program about the truth of Falun Dafa
was broadcasted at the Changchu TV station.
Her appearance completely changed
due to enormous amount of mental pressure.
Lan Lihua: “They took me away and
put me into a police vehicle.
Several people brutally beat me. It shocked me.
At that time I was only 23 years old.
I’ve never seen several men beating one woman.
My whole body shivered and twitched.
Fang Siyi, also from Jinlin,
was a senior Chinese beautician.
Both Fang and Lan went to Finland
under the arrangement of the UN.
In 2010, Fang testified at the
UN Human Rights Conference in Geneva,
about the torture by drugs she experienced in prison,
many people onsite were moved to tears.
Fang Siyi:
“I don’t know what kind of injection it was.
My belly was swollen after they started the injection,
and got bigger and bigger.
Within a week, my belly was like a pregnant woman’s,
or even bigger, it was almost like a transparent ball.
I asked the doctor to let me go home,
and I would come back in good health.
One doctor did not say anything; another one said
that it would be a miracle if I could survive.
I told them that I would survive and be in good health.
Fang recollected that many people
who witnessed this helped her.
Under the pressure, the prison put her on bail for treatment.
Today Fang Siyi is in good health
and proved the miracle she told the doctors.
In the past 12 years, there were many similar stories.
The CCP wanted to transform good people, who believe in
“Truthfulness, Compassion and Tolerance” into bad ones.
Zeng Zheng was a top student from Beijing University.
She never thought about going abroad before,
and always wanted to serve her country.
After a 4-year detention, she was forced to leave China.
Zeng Zheng: “Once I got in, I first need to squat,
then they would shock me with electrical batons.
Since the 2nd day, we were only given 2 minutes in the morning
for washing, brushing teeth and using the restroom.
Daily schedule was very intense.
You need to recite rules and principles 16 hours a day.
I was on the brink of collapse.
There was no dignity at all.
Each day I struggled not to lose sanity.”
This persecution is continuous and very long.
In the summer of 2011, nearly 2,000 candles
lit the night sky of Washington D.C.,
mourning the Falun Dafa practitioners who lost their lives.
How many more dark nights are there?
No one knows.
Falun Dafa followers only hope to spread their stories.
May justice and conscience be with them.
