Methods Used to Persecute Practitioners at Tuanhe Forced Labour Camp in Beijing
2005-10-26Tuanhe Forced Labour Camp in Beijing is notorious for its brutality and hypocrisy. Many cruel means have been used to persecute practitioners over the past several years, in efforts to "transform1" them. To the public, it claimed that its "education" style was "like life-giving spring breezes and showers." This so-called "education" is in fact a retinue of cruel torture and brainwashing. Authorities at Tuanhe use inmate "helpers," "enduring eagle" (sleep deprivation), threats, physical abuse, enforced sitting, hard labour, and other methods to persecute practitioners to get them to recant their beliefs. -
