Falun Gong Practitioners Are Still Being Brutally Tortured at the Tangshan City Forced Labour Camp
2005-02-06Falun Gong practitioners are still being tortured at the Tangshan City Forced Labour Camp in Hebei Province. On March 18, 2004, practitioners detained there held a group protest calling for the police to stop the physical abuse and respect the human rights of practitioners. Instead of respecting their request, the labour camp police launched another round of brutal persecution and torture of practitioners. Guards twisted one man's hands behind his back, and then used a rope saturated with water to tie him very tightly. At the same time, they raised his hands up to the back of his head. Each rope torture session lasted for about 15 minutes and this man was in his 60's. -

Three More Falun Gong Practitioners Pass Away as a Result of the Persecution
2005-02-04The three practitioners died as a result of harassment and interference in their lives. Had the persecution of Falun Gong not happened, they would most likely still be alive today.

They sadly all died as a result. -
