Watch Out for New Techniques that the Chinese Communist Party Uses to Persecute Dafa Practitioners
2006-06-08
A little while ago, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) declared that they have developed some kind of system that can recognise peoples' voice during phone communications. Through this system, they can recognise the identity of the speakers in communication. At present, this system has gradually been promoted for wider use. If they want to track and recognise a specific person's voice, they first of all need to get a sample of this person's voice on the phone, so they first need to record some section of this person's voice over the phone. As long as your voice on the phone is recorded, then no matter where, when or through what communication device you are making a phone call, this system can recognise you. -

Letter from a Practitioner in China to the Coalition to Investigate the Persecution of Falun Gong
2006-06-07The persecution of Falun Gong has lasted for seven years. During the seven-year period, I have been driven into exile for four years while my husband has been imprisoned for four years. My underage daughter has been living a very hard life on her own for all these years. In order to try to arrest me, the 610 office often harasses my mother and my mother-in-law. On June 2, 2003, a group of people who claimed to be policemen raided my mother's home one more time. My mother, who is over 70 years old, was living by herself. The policemen asked my mother to surrender me and threatened to arrest her if she refused. She was so worked up and frightened that she suffered a mental collapse. -

Pay Attention to the Guanshan Forced Labour Camp in Tieling City
2006-06-06When I was detained at the Dalian Forced Labour Camp, I heard the people guarding me say that they had given up on those steadfast practitioners who would not follow orders. They sent them to Guanshan Forced Labour Camp in Tieling. The conditions are extremely severe and dangerous, and the work is very hard. Injury or fatal accidents occur frequently. As soon as someone is sent there, the guard would meet him with a shovel handle, beating him from the gate all the way to the building area. When someone dies there, they would report it as an accident and no one would investigate any further. -

Exposing the Brainwashing Sessions in Hunan Provincial Women's Prison
2006-06-06In order to force Falun Gong practitioners to "transform," (give up practising Falun Dafa) the Hunan Provincial Women's Prison conducted brainwashing sessions many times inside the prison. The brainwashing sessions were designed to break down the steadfast practitioners, and thus the suffering of practitioners was intensified, both mentally and physically. They ordered practitioners to recite the prison regulations, and tried to brainwash practitioners with all sorts of deceit. Whoever refused to obey them, they punished at will by forcing her to stand, putting handcuffs on her, forcing her to "carry a sword in back" (a cruel form of handcuffing which causes severe bodily injury), putting her into solitary confinement and so on. -
