Corrupt Police Traffic in Drugs and Torture Dafa Practitioners in Shanshui Forced Labour Camp

The police in the Sanshui Forced Labour Camp of Guangdong Province have tortured practitioner Chen Baoca, a resident of Zhanjiang City using many brutal methods. The police forced him to squat down in front of them for a long time, even when his head was covered with large drops of perspiration. They often viciously beat his head. When Chen asked to use the toilet, three policemen refused his request. They taunted him, "Aren't you guys who practise Falun Gong supposed to be tolerant?"

On winter days when the weather was very cold, they forced practitioners to stand in icy winds. During very hot weather, with temperatures as high as 38~39^oC [100~102^oF], they ordered practitioners to keep running all day, not allowing them to use the toilet or drink water.

I was sent to Sanshui Forced Labour Camp in 2001. Within a few days after I was taken there, I found that drug addicts in the camp were buying and selling drugs. When meeting with visitors, the addicts are separated from the visitors by a glass plate. They talk to each other via telephone, under strict control. How could they obtain those drugs? Some practitioners reported the drug pushers to the police, but the police prohibited the practitioners from speaking out. Why? The police were involved.

Practitioner Liang Shoulin wrote in his diary about the policemen's various illegal behaviour, such as beating people, selling drugs and bribing on duty policemen with thousands of Yuan [Chinese currency, the monthly salary for an average Chinese urban worker is about 500 Yuan]. As a result, he was prohibited from writing.

Many relatives of those drug addicts had hoped they could give up their addictions while in the labour camp. Unfortunately, the corrupt police involved in selling drugs have actually led them further astray.

Practitioner Xing Beishong from Jieyang City, Liu Fangfei from Longmen County, and Cai from Dianmai County have been beaten and shocked with electric batons. The police locked them in small cells and cuffed their hands on both sides and started torturing practitioners with electric batons. The police were laughing with distorted faces while they were torturing practitioners. When practitioners who were tortured with electric batons were taken out of the small cells, their hands were severely swollen from being cuffed for a long time. Their faces were swollen, beyond recognition, as if they suffered from oedema, and there were large blood stains on their bodies. In order to cover up their brutal crimes, the police ordered those practitioners not to speak of the tortures they endured; otherwise they would suffer even more severe torture.
