• My Persecution Experiences in Prison

  2006-09-15
  I am a Falun Dafa practitioner living in Fushun City. In July 1999, all the newspapers started defaming Falun Dafa and Teacher Li [Li Hongzhi, the founder of Falun Dafa]. In October when I went to Beijing to appeal for Falun Dafa, I was arrested and sent to the Dashagou Detention Centre in Qingyuan. In the evening, the warden instructed two inmates to tie the cords of a power generator around my wrists, and then started the machine to torture me with high-voltage electricity. Next they tied the cords around my ankles and shocked me. My whole body became contorted and I fell onto the floor, but the inmates pulled me up and continued the torture.

• Four Falun Gong Practitioners in Wuxi City, Jiangsu Province Died as a Result of Persecution

  2006-09-14
  Ms. Gu Xuejuan persisted in practising Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance. She spoke to people about the facts of Falun Dafa to her work colleagues. As a result, she was demoted, and her salary was reduced. After 2001, she was imprisoned in a local forced brainwashing centre twice. The torture she was subjected to caused hematochezia (bloody stools).
