Practitioners Nearly Escape from Wangcun Forced Labour Camp

Falun Dafa Practitioners Defy the Persecution by Leaving Wangcun Labour Camp

On October 24, 2002, in the No.2 Labour Camp of Shandong Province (Wangcun Labour Camp in Zibo City), five Falun Dafa practitioners rushed out of the gate of the labour camp. The practitioners' defiance of their illegal and inhuman detention shocked the evildoers .

At 5:00pm on October 24, Xia Binquan and four other Falun Dafa practitioners who were forced to work in the carpet workshop of the labour camp took a break by going to the toilet. They could see that the gate of the labour camp was left open. Courageously, they ran to the gate together. One of them, Duan Dedao was intercepted at the gate. The other four successfully rushed past the gate and ran toward the hills, where there was little sign of human habitation. Because they had been tortured for a long time in the labour camp, they were extremely weak. The police caught them when they were halfway up the hill. The evil police forcibly dragged them back and cruelly tortured them and punished them physically. They used electric batons and other kinds of cruel torture instruments to force the practitioners to repent and write promise statements to stop practising Falun Gong. Now, these five practitioners are being closely watched and have no personal freedom.

Wangcun Labour Camp is currently brutally persecuting several dozen Falun Dafa practitioners.

Labour Camps' Use of the Hellish Water Dungeon

The interior of the grisly water dungeon in the labour camp is a big cement pool. Next to it is an iron rack that is used to hang people in the water, and above that is a cement cover. The people inside this grim chamber can't tell whether it is day or night and the water is so cold. The water is so deep that people cannot touch the bottom and have to move continuously and keep awake. Modern scientific experiments have proven that it is life-threatening to go without rest for 5 or more days. The water dungeon is one of the tools commonly used by labour camps to persecute practitioners. It is a ghastly experience.

The labour camps have temporarily stopped using the water dungeon because they have an even crueler instrument of torture. It is a specially made electric baton. Electrically shocking the human body is an appalling torture, even more vicious than the water dungeon!

The Protest of a Falun Dafa Practitioner in the Labour Camp against the Persecution

In mid July 2002, the labour camp held a conference of more than 700 people. During the conference, Falun Dafa practitioner Zhao Jianguo from Guan County stood up to tell the policemen in the labour camp his opinions and thoughts. But, he did not even finish one sentence when the person sitting next to him covered his mouth. He was held to the ground and cruelly beaten by 7~8 people in broad daylight. Then, he was dragged out of the conference hall and was strictly watched.
