A guard holds the victim's head from outside the cage and presses the victim's eyeballs very hard with both thumbs. The victim is in extreme pain and loses his sight for over half an hour.

Several guards rotated, patrolling day and night with rubber and wooden clubs. As soon as they saw that someone's posture was not correct, they beat them with the club.

    I met a woman who had been released from Yaojia Forced Labour Camp. She was a convicted criminal, and she told me about the persecution of Dafa practitioners in Yaojia Labour Camp that she had witnessed when she was there.

Then they order the criminals to clean it up. The police make the criminals force-feed practitioners. She also witnessed a guard using needles to pierce each finger of a practitioner.
