Practitioners Enslaved in Qianjin Forced Labour Camp in Harbin City
2008-02-20
Labour camp officials force practitioners to work overtime and give them excessive workloads. Practitioners are forced to get up at 5:30 a.m. and must work from 6:00 a.m. until 7:30 or 8:00 p.m. They get only 15 minutes for lunch and must work their entire shift without a break. Zhang Bo, Chief of the First Division, personally monitors everyone's work. Anyone who does not finish the assigned quota has to take the work back to his or her cell and may not go to sleep until the work is done. Huo Shuping, Chief of the Second Division, often punches and kicks practitioners and abuses them physically. She also forces practitioners to work more than the regular quota. When inmates are tasked with making rice paper bags, she increases the quota in the Second Division from 400 to 450 bags a day. -
The Seventh Division of Yang'ai Prison in Guizhou Province Brutally Persecuted Falun Dafa Practitioners
2008-02-20When I was detained in the Seventh Division of Yang'ai Prison in Guizhou Province, I witnessed the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) prison police brutally persecute Falun Gong practitioners. The police were inhuman. Falun Gong practitioner Qu Jing used a hunger strike to protest the persecution against her. The police tied her up on the "death bed" for a very long time and force-fed her. The food that spilled onto her during the brutal forced-feeding sessions soaked her shoulder for a long time, causing the skin to fester and become infested with maggots. Prison policeman Tian Weiwei also brutally beat Qu Jing and incited the criminals who were sent to watch Ms. Qu to brutally beat her. -
Mr. Huang Fujun Tortured to Death, His Family Seeks Justice to No Avail
2008-02-19On July 24th, 2007, Falun Dafa practitioner Mr. Huang Fujun was arrested by police and beaten until both of his feet were crushed and broken. On November 2nd, the police notified his family to visit him in hospital, when he was dying. He was unconscious, as thin as a skeleton, his face deformed from force-feeding tubes, which were still inserted in his nose. His buttocks were covered with terrible festering sores. Even in such a critical condition, guards still cuffed and shackled his wrists and ankles. Mr. Huang was taken home on November 4th. A 44-year-old man who was in good health, was tortured to such a degree within only three months. On November 6th, he died with his mouth and eyes open. -
Torture, Brainwashing and Slave Labour at Nanmusi Women's Forced Labour Camp in Sichuan Province
2008-02-19Ms. Zhou Rong was sent to the No. 4 Team, where the inmates were forced to do very heavy labour. They had to process pig hair all day long. The pig hair was soaked in a caustic solution. After a while the labourers' hands rotted from prolonged contact with this solution. Because Zhou Rong refused to write the so-called "ideological re-understanding" or to read books slandering Falun Gong, guards made her stand till late at night. They also threatened to add more hours to her workload. -

Facts about the Persecution of Dai Xiaoping at the Wangcun Women's Forced Labour Camp in Shandong Province
2008-02-19Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Dai Xiaoping was incarcerated in the Wangcun Women's Forced Labour Camp in the autumn of 2001. That is where I got to know her. As soon as she arrived, she was sent to the most vicious Division No. 5. As she was very steadfast, she was locked up in a solitary cell and made to undergo "reformation" [brainwashing] for long periods of time, which she resisted. The guards became more determined to brainwash her. They locked her up and tortured her more cruelly. They vowed that if they did not succeed, they would never let Ms. Dai go. Ms. Dai Xiaoping's husband was physically abused until he became partially paralysed on one side of his body. He died on June 13th, 2004 as a result of the persecution. -
Mr. Yang Baochun Unjustly Imprisoned in a Psychiatric Hospital
2008-02-18Mr.Yang Baochun, 40, is from Handan City, Hebei Province. He travelled to Beijing in July 1999 to appeal for justice for Falun Gong. He was arrested, escorted back to his hometown, and taken to a forced labour camp. He subsequently lost his right leg due to torture in the labour camp. He was then taken to the local psychiatric hospital, Ankang Hospital in Handan City, where he is still being held. At the psychiatric hospital, Mr. Yang has been tortured, starved, shocked with electric batons, and beaten. They also broke his cane, making it difficult for him to get around. -
Psychiatric Hospital Used as a Tool for Persecuting Falun Gong Practitioners
2008-02-18The Jiujiang City Fifth People's Hospital in Jiangxi Province, a psychiatric hospital, detains Falun Gong practitioners in order to persecute them. This kind of illegal detention defies conventional wisdom that psychiatric hospitals offer nurturing care. Ms. Jiang Xiaoying, a practitioner, has had her arms and legs tied, and she has been injected with nerve damaging drugs and other unknown drugs. Psychiatric patients have been instigated into attacking and insulting her, and family visits have been denied for several years. Ms. Jiang has protested against her detention on many occasions. Ke (male, first name unknown), an employee from the hospital's security office, threatened her by saying, "We will send you to forced labour if you protest again." -
Police Torture a Retired Teacher, Causing His Stomach to Burst, Requiring Extensive Emergency Surgery
2008-02-18Mr. Lei Zhengxia, is a 62-year-old Falun Dafa practitioner. On January 14th, 2008, he was arrested from his home by police officers. Police interrogated Lei Zhengxia by use of torture every day. Policeman Li Hong personally attacked Lei Zhengxia's stomach, chest and other vital spots of his body until all the internal organs were severely damaged. Lei's stomach had burst from the torture. Police sent him to the hospital on January 27th where emergency surgery was performed. We heard that the medical and operation fees reached nearly 40,000 yuan up to February 2nd. The police didn't want to pay for the medical expenses since that might mean legal responsibility for the interrogation by torture and intentional injury. Lei Zhengxia's younger sister and other family members worry about being able to afford the huge amounts of medical expenses. -
Practitioners Brutally Tortured and Brainwashed in Heilongjiang Women's Prison
2008-02-18Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Xu Jiayu was sent to the newly built 13th prison ward in the Heilongjiang Women's Prison on December 27th, 2006. The 13th prison ward was built specifically to hold Falun Gong practitioners. Guard Xu Zhen and a prisoner began brainwashing Ms. Xu Jiayu on December 28th. Ms. Xu talked to them about the truth of the persecution of Falun Gong and they became angry. The guards set up a TV and VCR. They put in a tape slandering Falun Gong. From 6 a.m. to 9 p.m., the guards took turns asking non-stop questions. This created a tremendous mental pressure that lead some to succumb to the authorities demands to renounce their practice of Falun Gong. -
Persecution at the Yinmahe Forced Labour Camp in Jiutai City, Jilin Province
2008-02-17I want to tell of some of the abuses I have experienced and witnessed at Yinmahe Forced Labour Camp. I am doing so to refute the Communist Party's false claim of "now being the best period of human rights in Chinese history." The Camp's goal of "reforming" or brainwashing us amounts to transforming human beings into subservient robots. In order to achieve this goal, the officials resorted to savage beatings, electric shocks, tying us onto the Death Bed, long-term handcuffing, sleep deprivation, and toilet bans, among other methods. The inmates were authorised to do anything they pleased with me. They beat me, pinched my nose until tears ran down my face on numerous occasions. They slapped my face with shoe soles and burned my heels with cigarette lighters, saying it would cause agonising pain when I walked without leaving a scar, thus no evidence of torture. -
Details of the Persecution Ms. Ren Shuzhen Suffered in Yongdeng Country, Lanzhou City
2008-02-17After she started cultivating Falun Gong, Ren Shuzhen's illnesses disappeared. Following the onset of the persecution, she went to Beijing to appeal. She travelled twice by train and walked all the way the third time. Authorities arrested and detained her on all three occasions. The officials sentenced her to one year in a forced labour camp in 2001. While in the camp, the guards verbally and physically abused practitioners, regardless of their age. They used violence to compel good people to "reform." Ren Shuzhen refused to write statements defaming Falun Gong, resulting in her being subjected to a severe beating at the hands of the persecutors. Following this abuse, she was unable to turn over for more than 20 days. Another beating followed, at the hands of guard chief Hu, who beat for persisting in her belief in "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance." This beating affected her hearing, and she also became incontinent. -
Mr. Wang Hongshu Taken Into Custody And Beaten Savagely by Officers of Diaobingshan City
2008-02-17Mr. Wang Hongshu is a 50-year-old practitioner. At about 5 a.m. on January 17th, 2008, when he was on his way to his sister's home he was intercepted by a car without any licence plate. There were two people in the car. They did not show any ID and were not in police uniform. After they discovered that Mr. Wang was a Falun Gong practitioner, they dragged him against his will and tried to force him into the car. Mr. Wang tried to inform them about the true nature of Falun Gong. They said, "Do not talk with us about this. We must seize you." Mr. Wang refused to cooperate with them, so they beat him savagely. As a result, one of Mr. Wang's front teeth was knocked out, and another became loose, his face became blue and purple and his left eye filled with an abnormally large amount of blood. -
Bloody Violence Witnessed at Changlinzi Forced Labour Camp in Heilongjiang Province
2008-02-17I am a Falun Gong practitioner and I have been detained at the Changlinzi Forced Labour Camp. On February 2nd, 2004, I heard the sound of someone being slapped. I saw a group of guards and inmates rush to where the slapping was taking place and more sounds of someone's face being slapped followed. Ten minutes later, inmates were seen dragging three men covered in blood. I saw inmate, Qi Lianfeng brutally punching the severely injured man he was dragging. Qi was punching the man's weak spots such as the chest and the ribs. The scene was pitiful. Inmates dragged the three severely injured men into the "small cell", and tied them to "iron chairs". This was followed by brutal beatings, being shocked with electric batons and unbearable verbal abuse. -
Practitioners Force-Fed Drugs, Exposed to Swarms of Mosquitoes at No. 2 Women's Prison in Yunnan Province
2008-02-16A Falun Dafa practitioner who was recently released from the No. 2 Women's Prison in Yunnan Province revealed that the prison guards forced every imprisoned Falun Dafa practitioner to give up her belief by being "transformed". All of the practitioners were forced to have their blood pressure taken. Subsequently, they were told that they had high blood pressure and needed to take drugs and receive injections. Nerve-damaging drugs were administered for long periods of time. The No. 2 Women's Prison is located near a forested mountainous region that is host to swarms of mosquitoes. Most inmates are allowed to use mosquito nets while they sleep. However, Falun Gong practitioners are not allowed to use the mosquito nets. An elderly practitioner was so badly bitten she had bite wounds all over her face.
