I Was Arrested and Taken to Gaoyang Forced Labour Camp to Be Persecuted for My Spiritual Belief
2006-09-29"Most of the people imprisoned in Gaoyang Forced Labour Camp were Falun Gong practitioners. There are also some non-practitioner detainees there, but not many. The atmosphere is especially intense. As soon as a person enters the camp, he/she feels it is ghastly and fearful, causing one to gasp for breath. I lived on the first floor. Five people live in each room. The window was nailed shut and the room was not ventilated. The smell was very strong from the toilets. We often heard guards beating and abusing people on the second floor. There were also the pitiful cries as the practitioners were beaten." -

Two Cases of Becoming Healthy after Practising Falun Gong, Then Dying Due to Persecution
2006-09-2970-year-old Mr. Bai Ruyi had many diseases before he practised Falun Gong. He had hypertension, heart disease and liver dysfunction. In 1998 he started reading a Falun Dafa book. After one month, he stopped taking all his medications. After July 20th, 1999, when the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) started persecuting Falun Gong, Bai Ruyi suffered from harassment, and police searches of his home. The police forced him to write a guarantee statement renouncing Falun Gong. The resulting guilt along with the policemen's harassment and threats caused Bai Ruyi to lose his environment for studying Dafa, and thus he became weaker and weaker. His liver diseases recurred; he vomited blood, and passed away on September 2nd, 2004. -

Exposing the Brainwashing Methods Used by Masanjia Forced Labour Camp
2006-09-28I just came out of Masanjia Forced Labour Camp. The camp had tried all means to persecute me and make me give up Falun Dafa. When I was initially sent to the labour camp, the guards and the collaborators were very "nice" to me. They showed their particular "care" in their attitude of talking and how they treated me in daily life. Never be deceived by them. After a while, their true intentions were revealed. Each air particle in Masanjia is soaked with evil, and it makes people feel suffocated.
