  I have been jailed in detention centres seven times, jailed in a labour camp once and in brainwashing classes three times. In December 2000, at Haidian Detention Centre in Beijing, the police incited inmates to pour cold water on my naked body for an hour. Then they hung a bottle of water from my private part and swung it. My wife He Xiuling was jailed in detention centres five times. In 2003, because she produced some material exposing the persecution she was jailed in a detention centre. On March 11th, 2004, she was very weak and was dying from the torture.

• Mr. Wang Jianguo Persecuted to Death; the No. 1 Custodial Station in Jilin City Couldn't Get Away with Shirking the Responsibility

  2006-05-09
  Today, as the behind-the-scenes crimes of the Sujiatun Concentration Camp are being exposed to the public and shocking the whole world, Mr. Wang Jianguo, a Falun Dafa practitioner, was persecuted to death by the Nanjing Police Station and the No. 1 Custodial Station, both in Jilin City. On April 12th, 2006 Mr. Wang's family members were told that he had died from a hunger strike and malnutrition. When the family went to the postmortem they found that the back of Mr. Wang's head was covered with pits and bumps, there were scars on his left arm, and there were bruises and a bloody wound on the right side of his face. It is far more likely that Mr. Wang Jianguo was beaten to death.

• Fellow Practitioners Who Didn't Give Your Names: Where Are You?

  2006-05-08
  Another practitioner and I went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Gong in December 2000. We were arrested and jailed at the Haidian Detention Centre in Beijing. On New Year's morning, 2001, the police loaded Falun Gong practitioners onto buses and we were sent to the northeast area. One bus held 50 practitioners. Endless numbers of white buses travelled one behind each other along a curving mountain highway. The police said, "It is a secret where you are being sent. All we can tell you is you are going to the northeast area." (Translator's note: People usually call the three Chinese provinces of Heilongjiang, Liaoning and Jilin the "northeast" area).

• Mr. Jia Jingwen's Black Hair Turned Grey within Three Months of Persecution at Jinzhou Forced Labour Camp

  2006-05-08
  "One day at end of July 2004, the police arrested me and sent me to Jinzhou Forced Labour Camp. Because I refused to follow their orders to get my hair cut and wear the prison uniform, they brutally beat me and put me into the "small cell for new arrivals." As soon as I arrived there, I saw a man with his hands cuffed behind his back, and wearing a helmet. He was very thin and had a grey beard, which almost covered his face. At first, I did not realise that he was my fellow practitioner Mr. Jia Jingwen. Although we had been close friends for over a year, I did not recognise him until I took a close look."

• Informing the World About Labour Camps, Detention Centres, Prisons, and Hospitals in Mainland China

  2006-05-07
  In March of 2005 at Wanjia Forced Labour Camp, all inmates, including Falun Gong practitioners, were ordered to have their blood drawn and tested. They said that they were testing us for infectious diseases. Everyone had a full test tube, which was the width of a thumb, filled with our blood. Every test tube was numbered. During the procedure, the prison hospital director was very aggressive and at the same time afraid that anyone might refuse. Thinking back, I'm speculating - was this in reality to build a database for live organ harvesting from Falun Gong practitioners?

• Some Thoughts on the CCP's Bloody Persecution in Concentration Camps

  2006-05-07
  I was shocked after reading reports that exposed those Chinese Communist Party (CCP) agents who were harvesting organs from living Falun Dafa practitioners at the Sujiatun Concentration Camp in Shenyang. Although I was shocked, these findings came as no surprise. In 2002, when I was unconstitutionally detained in the so-called "Legal Education Programme" (a brainwashing centre) I heard from the doctors there about harvesting human organs and some other horrible stories. I didn't pay too much attention to these stories then. Based on the doctors' discussions and on those from the "helping and educating" people, I could see that the CCP is capable of doing anything during this persecution of practitioners who firmly believe in Dafa.

  2006-05-06
  55-year-old Sun Suzhen, lived in Liaoning Province. She was sentenced to five years imprisonment in 2003 and sent to the Liaoning Provincial Woman's Prison.

Guards frequently tried to force her to finish the quota by using electric baton shocks or by making her squat down. Criminal inmates also beat her. Under intense physical and psychological pressure, Ms. Sun Suzhen passed away on March 25th, 2005.
