  • Speech by a Swiss practitioner at a Conference in the United Nations on the Abolition of Execution

    "In prisons and in forced labour camps, persecutors use the most barbaric and horrific torture methods known to human civilisation. An incomplete report shows over 100 methods being used to torture or to kill Falun Gong practitioners, including: beating to death, burning alive, tying to motorcycles and dragging to death, throwing from high buildings, subjecting to electric shock treatment (to destroy the mind), raping, gang raping and throwing stripped female practitioners into male prison cells, stretching and tying practitioners’ limbs to the four corners of a metal bed, force feeding highly concentrated liquid pepper and saline solutions, and so on. Ten thousand practitioners have been forcefully sent to psychiatric hospitals to be tortured with injections of large doses of drugs that damage the central nervous system."

    Sometimes, when some of the pupils got restless and talked a lot, I would point at the blackboard where I had written "Truthfulness, Compassion, Tolerance" in Chinese characters, and say in a friendly tone: "Just try to have more tolerance".
