• The Persecution of Falun Gong Practitioners in Moganshan Women's Forced Labour Camp in Zhejiang Province

  2011-07-12
  New or steadfast practitioners are intensely brainwashed from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m in Moganshan Women's Forced Labour Camp. Videos denouncing Falun Gong are broadcast loudly and continuously. Materials written by some practitioners under intense pressure are also used to deceive other practitioners. Practitioners are ordered to read books denouncing Falun Gong. If they become sleepy, their sitting posture is not good, or they want to drink water or even need to use the toilet, they are insulted. Once a programme is broadcast or an article read, practitioners are forced to write their “understanding” of it. If many programmes have been broadcast, practitioners are forced to write an “understanding” of each one, or else points are deducted from them. Ten points deducted results in a one-day sentence extension.
