• Exposing the Gross Abuse of Women Falun Gong Practitioners at the Guangxi Province Women's Forced Labour Camp, Part 2

  2006-04-08
  Guards ordered two inmates to monitor Ms. Huang Zhiqin. They forbid her to speak, laugh or use the toilet, unless special permission was given. Moreover, she had to perform slave labour for 16 hours daily. She was treated cruelly and became disabled. She could no longer walk because her legs were so badly swollen. One day during the roll call Ms. Huang Zhiqin stood next to a practitioner. The inmates who supervised her dragged her backwards. After Ms. Huang stood up and left an inmate ran after her and beat her up. Ms. Huang questioned her about who gave her the right to beat other people. Li Yong answered, "The government officials gave me the right to beat you."

• "Make It Impossible for Those Who Are Detained to Come Out"

  2006-04-07
  The guard said, "We don't want to abuse Falun Gong practitioners. We know that Falun Gong practitioners are the nicest people, but the government heavily pressurised the prisons again and again, saying that we were too soft toward Falun Gong, saying that it's a class struggle between the Party and Falun Gong and that we must be ruthless toward you guys. You see, the foundation for the prison building is growing deeper and deeper, the new buildings are much better looking than the old ones, but the cruelty toward those held inside is getting worse and worse."

• Exposing the Gross Abuse of Women Falun Gong Practitioners at the Guangxi Province Women's Forced Labour Camp, Part 1

  2006-04-07
  The Group 2 work section is a large metal shed that measures over 1,000 sq. feet. The shed has an asbestos roof and two sides lean against a wall, while the other two sides are open. Wind and rain freely sweep through the shed. Sometimes more than 200 people work together in this shed. When people work overtime on winter nights, they cover the two open sides with plastic sheets. But Nanning winters are cold and damp, and the plastic sheets are powerless against the bone chilling weather.

  2006-04-05
  Ms. Chen Lijun was sent to the forced labour camp and persecuted with a cruel method called the "binding cloth." When others saw her they said she was almost unrecognisable. She could not even eat anything anymore. However, the authorities still force her to work and continued to beat her. Several people circled her and beat the lower part of her body until she developed internal injuries. One day the person in charge ordered, "Hit her lower part. Beat her until she cannot go to the toilet anymore, beat her until she cannot walk anymore, and make sure nobody will be able to recognise her anymore." They tortured her almost to death.

• A Practitioner Recounts her Horrific Experience in the Shijiazhuang Forced Labour Camp

  2006-03-29
  "During the 70 days and nights, they brainwashed me. Liu Junling slapped my face numerous times each day. The evil criminal acts of Liu Junling and other instructors of Team 4 in the Shijiazhuang Forced Labour Camp injured my body and mind so severely that I was on the brink of a mental collapse. When I went to bed after the 70-day torture was over, my body ached as if it were falling apart and I could hardly sleep. The pain in my lower limbs lasted even longer. What's more, the mental wounds continue to bleed and will never heal."

• Family Members of Falun Dafa Practitioners Persecuted at Baimalong Labour Camp Appeal to the International Community

  2006-03-26
  We had previously exposed the atrocities at the Baimalong Forced Labour Camp on September 1st, 2005. The labour camp received many phone calls and faxes sent from overseas to condemn their crimes. The atrocities did not stop, however, but escalated. The labour camp authorities and the CCP agents launched a frenzied retaliation against the people who signed the public letter. Falun Gong practitioner Zhang Yunlan was tortured until she had a mental breakdown, after which her family took her home. In November 2005, the CCP agents hit and killed her with a car in order to destroy evidence of their crimes.

She was sent to the hospital a few times but her condition didn't improve after nearly 1,000 yuan was spent on medical examinations.

  Re-enactment of torture method: split legs and head against the floor. The practitioner's legs are split open to the maximum while he is handcuffed with his arms behind his back. The guards press his head downward until his face touches the floor. The practitioner's tendons are torn; it is excruciatingly painful. In mid-October 2000, practitioner Zou Guirong, who was later tortured to death, was tortured this way. She wrote, "Guards and collaborators pushed me down, tied my hands behind my back and pressed my head toward my thighs. My body bent like a compressed spring. I could hardly breathe and I screamed."
