• Savage Acts of Torture at the Tiantanghe Women's Forced Labour Camp in Beijing

  2013-05-28
  I was detained at the helllike Tiantanghe Women's Forced Labour Camp in Beijing. Regardless of age, all prisoners had to do a required amount of farm work, shovel snow on cold winter days, remove grass on hot summer days, etc. Many didn't have the physical strength required and fainted while working. We were forced to pack green beans, tea leaves, children's clothes, sugar, stamps and books into boxes – each of which weighed over 50 kilograms (110 lb). The boxes of books were particularly heavy, so loading and unloading them onto trucks was especially difficult for elderly practitioners. A seventy-year-old woman didn't know how to put together a paper box. She was punished by having to sit on a bench for days until her legs turned purple.

  During the year she was detained in the mental hospital, doctors pushed electric needles into Falun Gong practitioner Ms. Wu Xiaohua and subjected her to electric shocks many times.

Every day doctors connected the electricity and ran a current through her, stabbing her taiyang acupuncture point with an electric needle, causing the nerves in her entire body to spasm. She was in great pain, and it felt as if her hair was being pulled out of her scalp. When she was given electric shocks, they tied her to the bed and Li Wan, the doctor in charge, threatened to increase the voltage if she did not cooperate.

• Head Nurse: Atrocities in Masanjia Forced Labour Camp Cannot be Denied

  2013-05-28
  I was twice detained at Masanjia Forced Labour Camp and I subjected to cruel persecution there.
