The Torture and Persecution That I Sustained Inside Wangcun Forced Labour Camp
2005-02-12
"Recently, "CCTV" [China Central TV]broadcast a series of fabricated lies and rumours alleging that Falun Gong practitioners are not tortured when they are arrested and detained by the authorities. This is completely untrue and so I hereby document and submit my personal experience of the torture and degradation I experienced when I would not go against my own conscience by giving up the practice of "Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance;" the practice of Falun Gong." -
Atrocities at the Heilongjiang Province Drug Rehabilitation Forced Labour Camp: The Skin on My Inner Thighs Was Peeled Away
2005-02-11"In 2002, I was sent to the Heilongjiang Provincial Drug Rehabilitation Forced Labour Camp. Guards gave me a pen and a piece of paper, and ordered me to write a "Repentance Statement" and a letter that attacks Falun Dafa. I firmly refused .They started torturing me in an effort to destroy my will. The guards ordered inmates to beat me. They yanked off my cotton-padded trousers, and pinched and pulled at my inner thighs until the skin was gone. Blood and fluid seeped from my thighs. Then they started pinching my thighs until small pieces of flesh came off." -
My Experience in Anshan City Forced Labour Camp
2005-02-11"After I was abducted and illegally detained at the Anshan Forced Labour Camp, many other Falun Dafa practitioners and I were continuously persecuted both physically and mentally. Prison guard Zhang Zhenyang once said to us, "All the torture methods we use on you have been approved by the Party and the government." The director of the prison, Xu Baoyu, challenged us, "Which one of you wants human rights?" Falun Dafa practitioner Li Peisheng stood up and said, "I want human rights." The prison guards later beat Li for 20 minutes." -
A Letter Delivered from the Masanjia Forced Labour Camp After Passing Through Many Hands
2005-02-10"I am currently detained in Masanjia Forced Labour Camp, without any legal procedures. In here I've suffered unspeakable humiliation, abuse, and torture because I've maintained my firm belief in Falun Dafa. The mental pressure and tortures to which practitioners are subjected is beyond what anyone can imagine. The nightmares I've experienced during my detention are imprinted in my mind and continually haunt me." -
Exposing the Dark Secrets of the Persecution of Falun Dafa Practitioners in Hezuizi Forced Labour Camp
2005-02-08The Hezuizi Forced Labour Camp is a living hell. People who live under such conditions become very weak, and they look tired and old. Their gaze is dull and their reflexes slow. Some people arrived the labour camp with full heads of black hair and had it all turn grey in a single year showing how heavyhearted they have become. The methods used in the forced labour camp are claiming to "educate, transform and save" people. Their so-called "transformation" turns good people to bad people and destroys their will and spirit. -

In October 2004, she was imprisoned once again in the Masanjia Forced Labour Camp. She had already been thrown into a male cell in another labour camp, where she was stripped naked. The prison guards used electric batons to shock her nipples, genitals, and other sensitive body parts. Even now there is still a bone bulge on her face. -

Falun Gong Practitioners Are Still Being Brutally Tortured at the Tangshan City Forced Labour Camp
2005-02-06Falun Gong practitioners are still being tortured at the Tangshan City Forced Labour Camp in Hebei Province. On March 18, 2004, practitioners detained there held a group protest calling for the police to stop the physical abuse and respect the human rights of practitioners. Instead of respecting their request, the labour camp police launched another round of brutal persecution and torture of practitioners. Guards twisted one man's hands behind his back, and then used a rope saturated with water to tie him very tightly. At the same time, they raised his hands up to the back of his head. Each rope torture session lasted for about 15 minutes and this man was in his 60's. -

Mr. Li Wenjun Illegally Sent to a Forced Labour Camp and Tortured, All Appeals Denied (Re-Enactment Photos)
2005-02-01Mr. Li Wenjun's letter to the forced labour camp, "Since I am persistent in my belief in Falun Dafa, and want to let people know what Falun Dafa really is, I appealed to the government and clarified the truth to people. But I was arrested and detained. Kindness will always be kindness. Even though I suffered a lot, I will still tell people that Falun Dafa is good. The true hope of humankind is to wake up to the true kind nature of a human being."
