• Pay Attention to the Guanshan Forced Labour Camp in Tieling City

  2006-06-06
  When I was detained at the Dalian Forced Labour Camp, I heard the people guarding me say that they had given up on those steadfast practitioners who would not follow orders. They sent them to Guanshan Forced Labour Camp in Tieling. The conditions are extremely severe and dangerous, and the work is very hard. Injury or fatal accidents occur frequently. As soon as someone is sent there, the guard would meet him with a shovel handle, beating him from the gate all the way to the building area. When someone dies there, they would report it as an accident and no one would investigate any further.

• Exposing the Brainwashing Sessions in Hunan Provincial Women's Prison

  2006-06-06
  In order to force Falun Gong practitioners to "transform," (give up practising Falun Dafa) the Hunan Provincial Women's Prison conducted brainwashing sessions many times inside the prison. The brainwashing sessions were designed to break down the steadfast practitioners, and thus the suffering of practitioners was intensified, both mentally and physically. They ordered practitioners to recite the prison regulations, and tried to brainwash practitioners with all sorts of deceit. Whoever refused to obey them, they punished at will by forcing her to stand, putting handcuffs on her, forcing her to "carry a sword in back" (a cruel form of handcuffing which causes severe bodily injury), putting her into solitary confinement and so on.

• Former Engineer from the Yunnan Province Design Institute Recounts the Persecution He Experienced in China's Forced Labour Camps

  2006-06-05
  "Division 2 where I was persecuted owned some factories and farms, including a vegetable dehydrating processing factory. The vegetable factory was in very unsanitary condition, with mosquitoes, flies mice, and cockroaches everywhere. No one was allowed a hot water shower at any time during the year. Most people had scabies, big blisters, and other infectious skin diseases. When one touched the area with a finger, it bled or oozed pus. It was disgusting and terrible. After some time, even the fingers were infected and oozed pus, but we still had to work for more than 16 hours a day. No one asked whether the products met sanitary standards as long as the quota was met."
