• Organ Harvesting Atrocities Against Falun Gong -- Investigation Leads from China's Guangzhou City – A Comprehensive Report

  2011-04-03
  Ms. Hao Runjuan from Guangzhou City was very healthy before she was arrested. After being continuously tortured for 22 days by police in the Baiyun Detention Centre, Hao Renjuan passed away. The police authorities conducted a full body autopsy without her family members' knowledge. When the family was told to identify the body, it was completely unrecognizable, with fresh bloodstains on it. There were no inner organs, no skin and no eyes in the body. Because the body was so disfigured, none of her family members believed that it was Hao Runjuan, even after seeing the body twice. Then, the family had to take her two-year-old son for a DNA test to confirm that the body was truly his mother's. Finally, it was confirmed that the unrecognizable body was that of Hao Runjuan.

• Falun Gong Practitioner Ms. Yan Yuqin Became Mentally Disordered As a Result of Torture in Beijing's Tiantanghe Forced Labour Camp

  2011-04-03
  From the end of 2006 to 2007, I was detained at the Beijing Haidian Detention Centre for over three months. All I heard were the sounds of chains and screaming from beatings every day. The police were trained to be ruthless and never treated detainees as humans. A practitioner in her 50s was detained in the cell next to mine. Because she shouted “Falun Gong is good,” the police chained her hands and feet together. As a result, she could not walk normally. She could only move slowly in the heavy chains, and her back was bent nearly one hundred and eighty degrees. This is called the “Dog Chain” torture.

• Deyang Prison Brutally Persecutes Falun Gong Practitioners

  2011-04-03
  The guards in Deyang Prison have developed methodically denigrating procedures to persecute Falun Gong practitioners. For example, when they approach a guard or an office, they must announce themselves as “Inmate So and So” and announce the “crimes" they were charged with. When practitioners refuse to cooperate and, instead, state the truth by saying "I am a Falun Gong practitioner, I am not a criminal," they are forced to attend "military training" during the daytime and, when the training ends in the afternoon, have to stand for long periods of time and are not allowed to use the toilet.
