He was forced to stand up for three, seven, and nine consecutive days without sleeping. As a result he began having illusions, high fever, and urinated blood. His bowels stopped working, his legs were swollen, and his feet were infected and leaked yellow fluid.

  Ms. Liu Yanqin is a farmer in her 50s from Fushun City, Liaoning Province. Because she has remained steadfast in practising Falun Gong, the police have arrested and sentenced her to forced labour education several times during the past ten plus years.

• Practitioners Brutally Persecuted in Wanjia Forced Labour Camp

  2011-05-04
  I have been persecuted many times since Jiang Zemin's, [former leader of China and instigator of the persecution] regime started persecuting Falun Gong in 1999. I was detained twice and sent to forced labour camps twice, and both my body and mind have been greatly injured. In Wanjia Forced Labour Camp practitioners were forced to watch videos slandering Falun Gong and write statements to renounce practising Falun Gong. A dozen collaborators (former practitioners, brainwashed against Falun Gong, made to assist in brainwashing and torturing practitioners) tried to “transform” [forcibly renounce Falun Gong] me from dawn to midnight every day. They threw me into solitary confinement, cuffed my hands behind my back, and hung me up with a rope from the ceiling.

• Cases of Sleep Deprivation Being Used as a Means of Persecuting Falun Gong (Part 1)

  2011-05-02
  Among the methods used to torture Falun Gong practitioners detained in police stations, forced labour camps, prisons, and brainwashing centres, one of the most common is sleep deprivation. Practitioners are not allowed to sleep for long periods of time, and the longest reported has been for 50 days. This is not only torture of the body, but of the mind and spirit as well. The intention is to destroy one's will, get a confession, and make them give up their beliefs. Although there have been many reported cases, since this torture does not result in obvious physical damage, it has been taken less seriously by the public. In reality, sleep deprivation is one of the most insidious torture methods.

• Changzhou University Graduate Student Arrested, His Mother Requests His Release

  2011-05-02
  “I am Yi Song’s mother. My son is a Changzhou University graduate student. Because he firmly practises Falun Gong, officers from the Changzhou 610 Office arrested him on March 22nd, 2011 in order to isolate and brainwash him. My relatives and I went to Changzhou a few days ago although we are poor and live in a faraway city. We had hoped to see my son. However, 610 Office director Ji Liming did not listen to my appeal at all but kept publicly cursing me. Just because I am a Falun Gong practitioner, he regarded me as a person who would “harm the safety of teachers and students in Changzhou University” and took video of us. They demanded that we present our identification cards to him and then followed us, which severely infringed upon our human rights."
