Shizishan Labour Camp Officials Add Heroin to Dafa Practitioners' Food

Hubei Province's Shizishan Forced Labour Camp authorities viciously abused and mistreated [Falun] Dafa practitioners. Every Dafa practitioner was forced to take off all clothing for a body search as soon as he arrived. Two criminals were assigned to each Dafa practitioner, monitoring him around the clock. They didn't allow Dafa practitioners to sleep and forced practitioners to recite the so-called labour camp regulations. Some practitioners were forced to sit quietly, with the body kept at a 90 degree angle or stand in the "army corps" posture till one or two o'clock in the morning, sometimes prolonged to three o'clock. They were then forced to get up at 5:00 a.m. every morning. Guard Zhang Guorong said, "Falun Gong practitioners will never leave here unless they have been 'transformed.'"

Instigated by the guards, other criminals here often brutally beat and abused Dafa practitioners. One Dafa practitioner went on a hunger strike to protest against the persecution. The guards put handcuffs on him and, except for going to the restroom, he had to "sit quietly" from 5:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m., sometimes until 2:00 a.m. This practitioner still refused to give up his faith and was sent to a mental hospital for further persecution.

The guards in Shizishan Forced Labour Camp instructed criminals to put poison in Dafa practitioners' food. Once a collaborator [a former practitioner who had given up Falun Dafa due to the severe brainwashing by the police] gave a biscuit to a Dafa practitioner. After the practitioner ate it he felt pain, and was cold and light-headed. These collaborators also added heroin into Dafa practitioners' food. However, Dafa practitioners soon recovered from the impact of the drugs after they ate the poisoned food. This shocked the perpetrators.

Higher-level government officers often inspect the labour camp here. During their visits, one Dafa practitioner would rush out and shout for fair treatment of Dafa practitioners whenever the officers came. The persecutors hated him and were afraid of him. Every time before any higher-level officers came, they would find some excuse to torture this practitioner. The lawless guard Hu Wenjie said, "It is quite normal for people to die in a labour camp. If one were beaten to death, we simply issue a 'proof of suicide.'"

The guards formed a special team called the "201 team" for the female Dafa practitioners who firmly practice Dafa and refuse to cooperate with the persecution. This team was monitored by the so-called "security team." The security team members wore uniforms and carried electric batons. In the evening, cries of female practitioners and shouts of their tormentors could often be heard. Guard Wang Weimen said, "This is what those who dare to practice Falun Gong exercises deserve."

We hereby appeal to everyone: please extend a hand to help rescue those Dafa practitioners that are trapped in such a hell on earth and are experiencing life threatening abuse every day.
