• My Experience is Consistent with the Existence of Concentration Camps

  2006-05-25
  Since the secret concentration camps were exposed, I reflected on my own experience. I realized that practitioners riding on the same buses as me and held in various parts of Liaoning Province, were perhaps again transferred to concentration camps similar to Sujiatun and lost their lives to organ harvesting. I was arrested after appealing with other practitioners on Tiananmen Square. All practitioners refused to tell their names and addresses. We were transferred by buses to the border between Liaoning Province and Hebei Province and tortured in a dtention centre. Due to fear I eventually told my name and address and I was returned to my local area.
