  A female practitioner who lives next door to us did not tell her name. They detained her in the Tuanhe Labour Camp in Beijing for a year. A practitioner who went to Beijing with me was locked up in the detention centre. Because she later had high blood pressure and was about to die, she told her name and address and was taken home. She told me that there were still many practitioners who did not tell their names. We do not know their current circumstances, or if any of them have been transferred to the Sujiatun Concentration Camp and murdered.

• Exposing the Gross Abuse of Women Falun Gong Practitioners at the Guangxi Province Women's Forced Labour Camp, Part 3

  2006-04-09
  A practitioner remembers that Guangxi Women's Labour Camp is notorious for its rats. Inmates are afraid to stick their feet out at night, as the rats often bite people's toes. Many inmates' toes are injured as a result of rat bites. It is terrifying when you see rats jumping around along the bed frames, at times over your body, face, or head. A rat bit me during my first month there. At that time, I was forced to be in the study group, where I had to memorize the prison rules, do military training, watch brainwashing videos, write responses and do hard labour. I did not finish until 2 a.m.

• Qinhuangdao Practitioner Mr. Hong Fei's Death After Being Arrested

  2006-04-09
  Mr. Hong had never thought that he would leave his parents forever after being arrested on March 7th, 2006. Police broke into Wu Wenjin's house and arrested two people inside. Because Mr. Hong was very weak, he was frightened and became physically incapacitated. However, the authorities still dragged him into the vehicle. On the way to the station they discovered that Mr. Hong was dying and could not be saved. They were afraid of being held responsible, so they threw him to the side of a road and used a quilt to cover him. Afterwards, Daonan Police Station officials lied and said that someone had reported his death.

• "Make It Impossible for Those Who Are Detained to Come Out"

  2006-04-07
  The guard said, "We don't want to abuse Falun Gong practitioners. We know that Falun Gong practitioners are the nicest people, but the government heavily pressurised the prisons again and again, saying that we were too soft toward Falun Gong, saying that it's a class struggle between the Party and Falun Gong and that we must be ruthless toward you guys. You see, the foundation for the prison building is growing deeper and deeper, the new buildings are much better looking than the old ones, but the cruelty toward those held inside is getting worse and worse."

  2006-04-07
  On March 11th, 2006, Yuan Qingsheng's family was finally able to meet him in the Dianjiang Prison in Chongqing City. Yuan Qingsheng was only able to walk with small, slow steps towards his family members, and his entire body looked ill and very fragile. He was emaciated to the extent that parts of his body were distorted. His family members were shocked to see him in this condition. Mr. Yuan leaned on the window with one arm as if all his energy were drained from him, and his other arm drooped down, dangling at his side. It was obvious that the dangling arm was severely injured and he did not wish his family members to see it.

  The Group 2 work section is a large metal shed that measures over 1,000 sq. feet. The shed has an asbestos roof and two sides lean against a wall, while the other two sides are open. Wind and rain freely sweep through the shed. Sometimes more than 200 people work together in this shed. When people work overtime on winter nights, they cover the two open sides with plastic sheets. But Nanning winters are cold and damp, and the plastic sheets are powerless against the bone chilling weather.

  2006-04-07
  "Our happy family met with disaster on the evening of March 14th, 2006. My daughter-in-law was not home at the time when more than ten state security agents and policemen stormed into my house and arrested my son. They also took away our computer and other things. My son never did anything against his conscience, nor did he violate the law. He is a good son and all my neighbours praised him. The police took him away as if he were a robber and the only reason is because he practises Falun Gong. I am an old lady, and I had to watch my good son being taken away."
