Persecution at Beijing Women's Labour Camp and Beijing Women's Prison - Part 1
2006-01-14
Lawless officials in Beijing have been recruiting and mobilising police from different areas in China to go to Beijing to aid in the persecution of practitioners that travel there to expose the persecution about Falun Gong. The local guards invented inhuman and cruel methods of torture for practitioners that are steadfast in their beliefs. They categorised the secret and vicious torture of practitioners as "education," "reformation," and "salvation." Every practitioner who has ever been detained in the labour camp has suffered under these repugnant tortures. -

"The Same Song" of Demons and Collaborators
2006-01-13"The Same Song", the show and the song, are wicked. It paints a peaceful picture for the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) regime and is used as a tool by the evildoers to attack the spiritual side of Falun Gong practitioners. In labour camps, Falun Gong practitioners were forced to learn this song. Whenever a Falun Gong practitioner was transformed, the first thing he/she was forced to do was not to write any repentance or the pledge not to practise Falun Gong, but to sing this song together with former practitioners who had turned against Dafa, as well as the police. -
