  2005-09-06
  Two years ago, Ms. Xue Xia, a Falun Dafa practitioner from Hebei Province, was persecuted to death at the Shijiazhuang Forced Labour Camp. Xue Xia suffered tremendously from torture in the forced labour camp. She was beaten, shocked with an electric baton, and deprived of sleep. She was forced to take a tablet, known as a brainwashing pill, because it weakens the patient, and produces a loss of appetite and loose bowels. Xue Xia was tortured to the verge of death, and camp officials feared she would die while in custody so they released her. However, she died in hospital in February 2003. She left behind a son and a daughter. Because their mother was a Falun Dafa practitioner, the children have been denied all care and support.

  "I was arrested and held at the Xishanping Forced Labour Camp for two years and was subjected to 26 different kinds of torture: I was tied up. The guard then elbowed my spine with brute force and punched my chest heavily with his fists. I had to stand in the military posture, sit upright and march using three different kinds of steps; I was exposed to mosquitoes, was forced to carry sandbags, stand against a wall, run on the drill ground, do push-ups, jump like a frog, walk like a duck and stand in sweltering heat; the perpetrators choked me and hit my face until my front teeth were broken; they force-fed me, pulled my ears, hit and broke my nose; they hit me with spiked clubs and jammed their knees into my sides; they starved me and forced me to squat. I was emaciated and was force-fed three times (twice the force-feeding caused hemorrhaging and I was rushed to the Accident and Emergency). I was on the brink of death.

• The Cruel Persecution I Suffered in the Shijiazhuang Second Detention Centre

  2005-09-04
  Every other day, they would insert a tube into my stomach through my nose and force-feed me with two bags of soy powder mixed with 300ml water and salt. They called this force-feeding, but in fact it is a brutal torture method. I was in great pain during the whole process. Four people would hold me down by pressing on my legs, twisting my arms and locking my head in a certain position, and then the doctor would insert a tube as thick as a small finger into my nose and down into my stomach, causing me to choke and vomit. To make me thirsty for water, they would put a large amount of salt into the tube as well. In order to prevent me from having a heart attack, each time they started the force-feeding they would stuff a few pills into my mouth.

• Exposing the Atrocities at Changsha City Detention Centre

  2005-09-04
  The centres police have always prevented family members from visiting the detained practitioners. Their usual excuse is that the practitioner does not want the visit. The truth is that they are afraid of the repercussions after the relatives see the mental and physical torment forced on the detainee. Also, the centre likes to create misunderstandings or barriers between the practitioner and their relatives so as to cut off support from the family. The centre has succeeded in creating false impressions for many visiting relatives who were unexpectedly disappointed. Many became miserably bitter after failing to see their relative.
