My 80-year-old Mother Died of Grief after the Police Lied to Her and Refused to Let Her See Me in Detention Three Times
2006-10-17On February 4th, 2003, police burst into my home, raided it and sent me to a detention centre. I was imprisoned in this hell on earth for about half a year. During this period, my 80-year-old mother was left alone by herself without anyone to take care of her. My mother visited the police station to ask for my release. Police shouted insults at her and said "You have no hope of seeing your daughter, so there is no need for you to come back." On another occasion they said to her, ""Since your daughter practises Falun Gong, she refuses to acknowledge her family. She does not want you as her mother." After my mother returned home, she was so upset that she cried every day and became critically ill. She died soon after. -

Guizhou Province Women's Forced Labour Camp Refuses to Let Guards Go Home in Order to Cover Up News of Atrocities
2006-10-17Practitioners were frequently taken to isolated places, where selected individuals took turns driving them into the wall or iron beds by pulling their hands and deliberately tripping them. The perpetrators repeated this again and again for pleasure, while saying that they were 'giving lectures.' The practitioners were forced to stay longer if they did not cooperate. The brutal persecution of these female practitioners is constantly changing and it seems there is no end to the cruelty. Even a glance between practitioners incurs a beating. They also commonly rub an unknown drug on the practitioners at random. -

The handcuffs remained, even when they were eating or using the toilet. -
The Bitter Experiences of Two Falun Dafa Practitioner Police Officers in Huanan County, Heilongjiang Province (Photos)
2006-10-16There are two police officers in my hometown, the chief and the deputy chief of the local police station, Officer Sun Jihong and Officer Shang Xiping. After they began practising Falun Gong, they got rid of much bad behaviour typically seen in today's police force in Mainland China and became honest and kind. Since the onset of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) persecution of Falun Gong, both of them suffered severe persecution. Beijing police officers beat Sun Jihong to death. His wife, Yuan Hezhen, was tortured to death. It was recently learned that Shang Xiping has been sentenced to ten years in prison. -

A member of the organisation department, Chen Su, interrogated me twice. He tried to force me to stop practising. I answered him, "My determination in Dafa cultivation is unwavering." They asked me to write the three statements. I did not cooperate. -
The Persecution of Dafa Practitioners Mr. Sun Kuixun and Ms. Sun Huijun from Pingdu City in Shandong Province
2006-10-16On September 5th, 2006, authorities from a detention centre sent more than ten police officers to Sun Kuixun's house. He was arrested and to protest he went on a hunger strike. The police directed workers to force-feed him. First they used scissors to force open his mouth, stuck in some pliers to hold his mouth open, and a doctor inserted a tube. Even though he knew that inserting the hard tube would cause severe pain, he still inserted it and pulled it out, and re-inserted it. After they inserted the tube, he was fainting and on the verge of death, so the authorities sent him to the emergency room. When Sun Kuixin first awoke in the emergency room, a leader of the team said, "You should be grateful that I did not kill you!" -
Practitioner from Jiamusi City, Heilongjiang Province Recalls Being Mistreated Five Years Ago
2006-10-16In late July 2000, I travelled to Beijing to appeal for Falun Dafa. I was arrested while riding on the bus from Tianjin to Beijing, and was interrogated for an entire day. Inside the Tianjin Detention Centre, when we did do the exercises, the guards beat us. There was no bedding, only rough wooden boards for sleeping. We were forced to eat mouldy steamed corn bread and a piece of dried vegetable. We are kind people and yet we were treated worse than criminals. To protest our detention, we went on a hunger strike. The guards force-fed us, which caused my teeth to become loose due to my mouth being forced open. -

Mr. Lu Tong Recounts the Torture He Suffered at Fangqiang Forced Labour Camp in Jiangsu Province
2006-10-15Practitioners who refused to renounce Falun Gong were forced to stand in the corner facing the wall from 6:00 a.m. to 1:00 a.m. or 4:00 a.m. the next morning. Sometimes practitioners were forced to stand all night. Inmates took turns to monitor us around the clock. In this vicious environment, physically abused and injured practitioners were forced to clean the floor on their knees [because they no longer could stand after standing for long hours.] Fifty-eight-year-old Zhao Jinquan's ankles were so swollen that they became as thick as his calves. Some practitioners had been forced to stand daily for five months or a year. I was forced to stand still daily for over three months. -

610 Office Tries to Coerce a Practitioner to Be Their Spy: the Story of Mr. Huang Yuxuan in Baise City, Guangxi Autonomous Region
2006-10-15On September 13th, 2006, police arrested me and interrogated me. I was only allowed to sleep one hour every day. After several days, I was traumatised and exhausted. I could see no hope of getting out. I wanted the persecution to end, so I made up a false oral confession. After that I just fabricated things as I thought of them and gave the police several other false oral confessions. I wrote that after I was released I would mobilise other Falun Gong partitioners to hand in Falun Gong materials and would secretly investigate those who made Falun Gong materials. Now I solemnly declare that the two guarantee statements I wrote in September 2006 are null and void. -
