  • The Cruel Force-Feeding I Endured In A Labour Camp

    The head of the labour camp once told me, "I have a death quota here; thus it's quite normal for a few people to die here. No one can see what goes on in this forced labour camp! So, after your death, I could make prisoners give false testimony, saying that you committed suicide. It's very easy to do! As long as I reward them with a little bit of a favour, they will jump at it, like dogs. I could even choose a special day like your Teacher, Li Hongzhi's birthday to do it. Afterwards, we could invite TV reporters to come, telling them how a young college student became fanatical and sacrificed his life for his Teacher, with the hope to go to heaven by committing suicide...."
