Mudanjiang Railroad Employee Mr. Zheng Jingjiang Taken to the Yichun Brainwashing Centre

Falun Gong practitioner Mr. Zheng Jingjiang is an accountant in the Mudanjiang Division of the Harbin Railroad Bureau. On September 6th, he was taken to the Yichun Brainwashing Centre by two leaders from his work unit, officers from the Heilongjiang Railroad Security Section and agents from the Domestic Security Division. Another employee, Mr. Zhan Xingchao, who also practises Falun Gong, was arrested on the same day.

The Yichun Brainwashing Centre was set up by the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) authorities on November 15th, 2010. It is called a “Legal System School,” but is actually a secret prison specially used to brainwash Falun Gong practitioners in an attempt to force them to renounce their belief. Many Falun Gong practitioners from Yichun have been severely persecuted both physically and mentally in the brainwashing centre. Their basic freedom and human rights are taken away and as part of the brainwashing, practitioners are forced to watch videos and read literature that slander Falun Gong.

Prior to this recent round of persecution, Mr. Zheng Jingjiang was detained and tortured in the Sidao Forced Labour Camp in Mudanjiang at the end of 2002. Under prison guard Wang Xuewen's orders, Jin Xiangzhe and Zheng Haipeng pinched Mr. Zheng's fingers with pliers and kicked him. Although Mr. Zheng's fingers and ribs were injured, the guards still subjected him to forced labour.

In the autumn of 2003, guard Tan beat four Falun Gong practitioners who were detained in the Fourth Unit, including Mr. Zhang Minghui, Mr. Zheng Jingjiang, Mr. Sun Yusheng and Mr. Yu Bo. The guards claimed that the beatings were because they found Falun Gong articles on Yu Bo. Guard He Xuhai personally beat every Falun Gong practitioner with a wooden stick. Guard Qiu Cheng slapped the practitioners' faces with his shoes. Guard Wu Yingzhi ordered Zhao Shun and Shui Hongjun to beat the Falun Gong practitioners. After the practitioners were released from the labour camp, policemen of the Railroad Public Security Section went to Mr. Zheng Jingjiang's home and the company where his wife works to harass them many times.

The Yichun Brainwashing Center is located on the fourth floor of the Xingxingsuo Karaoke Bar which is across from the old Yichun Tore Hall. An armed police unit is headquartered on the left side. All rooms above the third floor are decorated as hotel rooms. Every room has four beds. Wang Shu from the Heilongjiang 610 Office (an organisation of special agents just for persecuting Falun Gong) often visits the Yichun Brainwashing Centre. He and Liang Baojin and others intend to hold brainwashing sessions there for three years (since 2010).
