  • Persecution of Practitioners in Shiling Prison, Siping City, Jilin Province (Part 2)

    Practitioners who protest with hunger strikes are force-fed. Force-feeding is one of the tortures that destroys practitioners' wills and brings more suffering than one can imagine. It actually is one of the most brutal, cruel, and deceitful torture methods. They use it to torture practitioners and deceive the outside world. Practitioners that are force-fed are all in terrible condition. Their mouths, throats, and intestines are injured. After having been force-fed for a while one suffers constant internal pain. It feels as if one's intestines are being torn apart.

  • Exposing the Hypocritical Tactics of the Langfang Brainwashing Centre

    Han Zhiguang has been the Head of the Langfang City 610 Office since July 20th, 1999. He repeatedly incited his subordinates to commit crimes. To deceive the practitioners into cooperating, however, he always put himself forward as a kindhearted person. He sent numerous practitioners to forced labour camps. He was cited for his so-called "merit" in persecuting Falun Gong. He is known to have used a particularly vile form of persecution: those who had been coerced into renouncing Falun Gong would be released only when they had betrayed two fellow practitioners.
  • Please Continue to Try to Rescue Practitioner Ms. Yang Xiuling from Henan Province

She was sentenced by Chuanhui District Court to 10 years, but the prison officers refused to accept her. Her case was rejected and retried by Zhoukou Intermediate court due to "insufficient evidence" on December 15th. Her husband was deceived by the Chinese Communist Party's (CCP) lies and was frightened by their high-pressure terror tactics. In fear of being persecuted also, he divorced her.
  • Persecution of Practitioners in Shiling Prison, Siping City, Jilin Province - (Part 1)

    The staff at Siping Shiling Prison, from the top to the bottom levels, put much effort into the goal of "destroying practitioners physically," unless they renounce their belief in Falun Gong. Yet, they show a completely different image to the world beyond the prison gate. When a Falun Gong practitioner is first transferred from another prison to Siping, they give the practitioner the impression of having escaped the brutality experienced in other prisons. However once they discover that the practitioner cannot be "transformed," they show their brutal side. They then use all kinds of torture methods to the point of "physical destruction."

One month later she developed symptoms of schizophrenia.

His body was also as thin as a skeleton.
  • Drug Poisoning - A Method of Torture Often Used by the Chinese Communist Party

    In order to quickly "reform" the practitioners, destroy the practitioners’ willpower and justify the persecution, the officials at detention centres, labour camps and prisons where practitioners are held against the law often resort to preposterous tactics. They secretly inject sleeping practitioners with unknown drugs or put poisonous drugs in their food, which results in general malaise, difficulty walking, stunted speech, rapid decline of reaction and memory, and organ damage. Some practitioners suffer from a complete mental breakdown or cannot wake up from comatose sleep and have disordered thinking.
