• Brainwashing and Abuse at the Qiqihar Forced Labour Camp

  2008-02-29
  From September 2001 to March 2003, I was detained in the forced labour camp in Qiqihar, Helongjiang Province. I encountered brutal brainwashing and was forced to do hard labour in a poisonous environment. In order to earn money in a low, base manner, the guards in the labour camp forced us into a one-story building nearby to pour pesticide into containers. The toxicity of some of the pesticides is very bad. After a whole day's work, some criminals had bloody noses, swollen eyes and faces, and chapped skin. People should have gas masks to pour pesticides, but we only had regular respirators. After a day's work, the toxic pesticide chemicals were all over our clothes, inside and out. We don't have hot water, let alone bathing facilities. Before meals, over 100 people had to wash their hands using water from the same basin and it was impossible to wash off all of the pesticide.

• Who Are the Real Criminals?

  2008-02-28
  During the Chinese New Year, I heard a true story at my relatives' home which really illustrates how Falun Gong practitioners are treated in China. While a Falun Gong practitioner was taking care of a family member in the People's Hospital of Langfang City, she discovered that the expiration date of the infusion medicine had passed. Therefore, she told the doctor in charge. The director of the hospital not only intentionally ignored it, but also asked the police to arrest the practitioner for the crime of "making an illegal appeal during the Communist Party's 17th Congress." When the police arrested the practitioner, they hit her so hard that she lost consciousness. They forcibly took her away while she was still under emergency treatment in the hospital. Currently, she is being held in a brainwashing centre.

• Officials at the Wuhan City Brainwashing Centres Use Toxic Substances to Poison Practitioners

  2008-02-27
  "In early June, 2005, I was detained at the Yangyuan Brainwashing Centre. Within a few days I started to have headaches, and my vision was blurred, my mind became hazy, my thoughts were befuddled, and my memory faded. In late 2006 the symptoms got worse. I would fall even when I was sitting or lying. I was unable to keep my balance. Besides that, all my teeth ached and began to fall out, and my left foot hurt severely. Sometimes I did not even have the strength to hold a book. Not knowing what was happening, I simply endured everything. When I recently read on the Minghui website [Chinese version of Clearwisdom.net] that officials at the Yuangyuan Brainwashing Centre mixed unknown toxic substances into practitioners' food, and recalling what had happened to me before, I realised that I had also been poisoned. Before that, my memory and IQ were both very good."
