Practitioners Wrongly Held in Changlinzi Forced Labour Camp Demand Unconditional Release
2008-01-11My name is Zhang Shengjie. I'm 59 years old and from Harbin City. I was arrested on November 1st, 2005, and sentenced to three years of forced labour. I have been detained in the Changlinzi Forced Labour Camp for over two years. I have talked to the division head and explained that Falun Gong practitioners are all good people. The response I got was that all practitioners in detention are required to be "transformed." I cannot understand into what kind of people the CCP wants the practitioners to be "transformed." In such a society with low moral standards, and where money is above all, practitioners follow the principles of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Tolerance" to purify their minds and gain good health, and to further improve the moral standards in the society. -
