Is This a Hospital or a Dungeon?
2007-08-04Since November 2005, the No. 5 People's Hospital in Jiujiang City has treated Ms. Jiang Xiaoying, a clear-minded healthy person, as a mental patient. Staff at the hospital gave her injections, forced-fed her drugs and drew blood from her for 50 consecutive days. Since Ms. Jiang resolutely resists the inhumane torture, the hospital staff now torture her at night. Several men and women come to the ward where Ms. Jiang is held every night. They lock the door from the inside and tie up Ms. Jiang. They punch and kick her whenever she resists. They pry her mouth open with a spoon, loosening two teeth, to pour the drugs down her throat. -

Persecution of Falun Gong Practitioners at Qiqihar Forced Labour Camp in Heilongjiang Province
2007-08-03I was arrested by officers from my local police station in the end of 2004 and was sent to the Qiqihar Forced Labour Camp. The practitioners who refused to be "transformed" were all forced to do the dirtiest and heaviest work. The labour camp forced me to package pesticide in the agricultural chemical factory. The strong pesticide smell in the air made it hard to breathe and caused my abdomen to swell. The work the labour camp assigned to us was hard to finish. Guards arbitrarily increased our workload and they inspected the practitioners' work very strictly. The labour camp also forced us to work in the corn-processing factory which caused our hands to become swollen. If we stopped to rest for a while, the officials yelled at us. -
