• A Teacher Lost Her Sanity Due to Persecution

  2011-08-31
  The Minghui/Clearwisdom website previously reported that Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Deng Xiaomin lost her sanity due to persecution. It has been about eight years, and Ms. Deng is still mentally unstable. We all wonder what the guards in the labour camp did to her. Her elderly parents had no choice but to take her to a mental hospital. In 2000 she was sentenced to to three years in Jiangxi Province Women's Forced Labour Camp. Ms. Deng began a hunger strike. Guard Wang Junsheng and another guard named Lu knocked her down and shocked her with an electric baton, causing her to pass out. After 40 days on a hunger strike, she was force-fed through a tube pushed through her nose. Her nose bled, her face was swollen and bruised, and the tube was not taken out.

They even take practitioners to their notorious forced labour camps, imprison them and put them in brainwashing centres.

As of July 1999, however, many Falun Gong practitioners, who had committed no crime, were incarcerated there.
